LEARN about the birth process as well as postpartum healing and explore what is important to you
DISCOVER your inner resources and develop a mindset around pain-coping and self preservation
CONNECT with your support team, your partner, and yourself in birth and within those first 42 days after birth
FACE the unknown with courage, wisdom and self-love by preparing for the Rite of Passage

MEET THE DOULA
I'm Brooke
I believe the most important thing you need on this journey is to know your body, your options, the facts, and clarity around what you want or how you envision it all to be--- much like planning your wedding. This is another Rite of Passage that should not be overlooked.

perspective
"I love Brooke's approach to childbirth preparation. She prepares you both to be emotionally and mentally prepared for a wide range of birth experiences.
She takes you on a metaphysical journey that awakens something deep within you, something more valuable than a series of breathing techniques. Birth became a mind-body experience for us. It transformed the way I see myself as a Mother."

what they're saying
I wanted to try for a VBAC and have some additional preparation from the Hypnobirth training I did last time, so I signed up for one of Brooke's Birth Prep workshops. It was a creative, holistic approach to birth education. Worth the money and experience.
LISA
I didn't know where to start, as this is my first birth. I wasn't looking to hire a doula as my sister and girlfriend supported me, but I wanted help writing out my birth plan. Brooke took her time with me and helped me understand all the possible interventions in a hospital. I learned so much!
MARTHA
Before my prenatal session with Brooke, I never thought of how to care for myself -- mentally, spiritually, and physically after birth. With her guidance, we could establish a plan and house rules/boundaries with the family, so everyone was on the page.
