Hi, I'm Brandi
Hi, I’m Brandi! I’m a certified doula and pre/postnatal fitness specialist, and I have a Masters degree in Management and Leadership. Since 2017, I’ve had the privilege of providing birth doula services to wonderful families in the Austin area and teaching classes with Austin Childbirth. I’m a wife and mom of three, and I realized my awe and passion for pregnancy and childbirth during my own pregnancies. With my experience during my own births, having had an epidural with my first baby, an induction and un-medicated birth with my second, and an un-induced, un-medicated birth with my third, I understand and appreciate that each pregnancy and birth is unique. I’m passionate about education, and honored to be able to offer support and companionship to women and their partners during one of the most important times in their lives.
