Meet Your Doula
Hi! I'm Brit. I am a Certified Breastfeeding Counselor, Hypnodoula, Infant Massage Specialist, and Full-Spectrum Doula with a specific focus on birth and postpartum support. My goal is to guide each one of my clients to feel empowered by connecting to their intuition, providing evidence-based education, and encouraging them to feel confident in maintaining complete autonomy at all times. I place immense value on trauma-informed care with each of my clients, staying mindful of how deeply one’s life experiences may impact their entire pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. I love having the ability to remind my clients what they’re capable of, by providing them with the tools and resources they can utilize to feel completely prepared to make the birth of their dreams a reality. I know that no birth or postpartum period will look the same as another, and I will always support my clients’ choices and decisions based on what they know is best for their body.
I have been passionate about women’s healthcare, reproductive rights, and caring for others for as long as I can remember. I carried these interests into college, graduating with a degree in Biology & Health Sciences, which provided me with an in-depth knowledge of the human body and natural biological processes. It's no surprise that I am a huge advocate for undisturbed, physiological birth! (Your body is amazing, you were made for this). I have been immersed in the pharmaceutical industry for the last 5 years within my original career path, and it has allowed me to gain first-hand exposure to the lack of education and support there is for birthing and postpartum people, as well as the biases, racial disparities, and restrictive policies so deeply engrained within medical systems. I've carried these life experiences into my birth work and my philosophies, and I want to contribute to making a change in a powerful way.
Currently residing in the Greater Philadelphia Area, I spend my free time tending to my many, many plants, and getting cozy with my cat named Arlo, and my sweet old lady of a dog, Roxy. I am thrilled to be able to provide support to birthing people and their families in my area!
