Hi, I’m Brandi, a birth and postpartum doula. Being of service is in my blood. I started by caregiving journey twelve years ago when caring for infants and toddlers at daycares. I later transitioned into supporting children in counseling. As a counselor, I heard countless stories from new and expecting parents about the lack of support they felt. I doula because I love babies, children and families, and I love seeing families feel supported and embody happiness and healthiness. I believe that open communication, active listening and building trust with parents is essential for our working relationship.
My areas of expertise include: lactation support, multiples, trauma-informed care, meal-prep help, helping dogs and pets transition around being around babies, herbalism in postpartum support, LGBTQ+ support, grief support, helping with sleep schedule and feeding schedule, and proactively anticipating needs. My goal is to lend a helping hand, a listening ear, and grounded presence throughout the momentous transition of adding another person to the family.
Outside of doula work, I love music (singing, playing the flute, guitar, and drums, pretty much any instrument I can get my hands on). I also love meditation, breathwork, herbalism, and writing. I love to go for nature hikes with my dog Lucy and explore outside both in the forest and the ocean.
Advice to expecting and new parents: My advice is to try to take it one day at a time, know that you are never alone, and self-care goes a long way. You’re doing an amazing job, and you will look back and cherish these moments forever. I firmly believe that parents have intuition, inner wisdom and the answers that they need within.
Check out what Brandi’s families have said about her:
“Brandi is very good at listening to people, giving guidance, being there for their needs, makes things positive in any situation. She is very caring and non-judgmental. She puts her whole heart in it, and is always on time. It felt like she was family.”
“I’m not sure what sort of magical powers she has, but J absolutely adores her. Brian says that every time Brandi is here, J is full of smiles and giggles. Thanks so much for introducing her to us. She makes our little boy so happy!”
