Hi there! I’m Brooke. Supporting parents through pregnancy, labor and delivery, and the postnatal period is the greatest honor I could receive. Chances are you’re here because you are expecting or recently brought a little bundle into the world :) Congrats!!

I was gifted the Doula gene by my mom and business partner, Donna, who has been a doula for the better half of my life. She, along with my two beautiful children, are who I have to thank for the birth of MountainMamas. When I was younger, I remember being so excited when Donna would get a text from a client that they might be in labor. I wanted to know everything. I would text her for updates and truly couldn’t wait for the “BABY IS HERE!” text. I would find myself unable to sleep at night over the excitement of another baby coming into this world. I always wanted to know how mom was doing and if she was okay. I then found myself wondering what positions Donna was doing to help labor progress. I wondered if mom was okay and wished I could jump through the phone and help support. I was doing the work without doing the work. It was clear I was destined to be a birth worker. After getting a degree in health education, I landed a marketing job, which wasn’t fulfilling whatsoever. I knew I needed to make a change. Then, after having my first child, Zoey, I found myself on the other side of things and experienced what a gift having a doula was. I truly believe my journey would’ve been so different without her.

It was then that I became a doula. I received my certification through DONA International, started my Newborn Care Specialist training, and joined forces with Donna. We support and serve as a backup for each other, and love learning from each other everyday. 

The birth and postpartum periods are sacred. I join your side without judgement and with the promise that I will fully show up for you. and your partner During birth, I typically join when you’re in active labor or about 4-5 cm. I am there until the Golden Hour is over, usually no more than 2 hours postpartum, once you’re settled in comfortably and no longer need me.

I attend home births, birth centers, and hospital births and love working with Midwives and OBGYN’s alike. When I enter your space, I will setup the room with a diffuser (so many scents to choose from!), twinkling lights, tea lights, affirmation cards, comfort tools, labor position cards, a TENS unit, heating pad/clix pack, lotions and oils, etc. I use hypno-birthing in my practice and work heavily on breathing techniques to guide you through labor. I will inform you of your options and coach you through labor and delivery. I can be as hands on or off as you’d like!

For postpartum support, I join you once baby is home, and center my care around mom and baby. I can help with breast/chest feeding, schedules, baby care, bathing, etc., and we discuss milestones and what to lookout for. I am extremely organized and can help with nursery organization (I also offer nursery setup services before baby arrives as an add-on), light household tasks (dishes, laundry, etc.), grocery pickup, emotional and mental support, sibling adjustments, processing, etc.

If you would like to know anything else about me, please reach out. I’m so so excited at the possibility of joining your birth team!

Doula love,

Brooke
