My Offerings
Homebirth Doula + Photography
We will meet in person prenatally 3+ times to discuss the physiology of birth and get to know each other & then I will come support you in whatever way you need during your birth. I’ll stay for a few hours after the baby is born and come back to check in on you postpartum. This is tailored to each woman but typically involves talking over the physiology of birth, nutrition, past birth experiences, nervous system support, what you may wish to have on hand for birth and postpartum + many other topics. We will go deep and really take our time discussing each topic. This can look like sitting in your home, going for a walk, prepping postpartum meals while we chat or meeting at a coffee shop.
I offer all kinds of photography - maternity, birth photography, fresh 48 + family sessions, breastfeeding sessions etc! I also offer bundles for families that are wanting a doula and photographer!
I serve a 1.5 hour radius of Southern Illinois and you’re free to contact me if you want to see if you’re within my radius!
Sacred Postpartum Support
Many women in our culture spend lots of time + money investing in their birth and completely forget about postpartum. Planning for postpartum is just as important and can really make a difference in your overall experience as well as your journey to healing. You can hire me solely for postpartum care if you’d like! Or we can continue working together after your birth. If you’ve hired me to be at your birth, then postpartum care will begin immediately following the birth of your baby. I’ll clean up the birth space, make sure you’re fed a good meal & even take golden hour photos if you’d like to capture this moment forever. (unless you prefer to opt out of birth support and in that case it begins whenever you call me.)
I will walk with you through your first 40 days postpartum and we are likely to become close friends. The support that I offer is very individualized for the needs of each mother and includes check-ins that typically last 2+ hours. Some of my offerings are postpartum meal prep, massage, simple house chores, sitz bath/vaginal steaming, birth story debrief’s, placenta exploration + burial, breastfeeding support, & fresh48 photos. My postpartum wisdom comes from my own lived experience, walking with other women & an online course I took through Full Circle Holistic. This work is from my heart and I’m honored to serve you + your family in whatever way you need me to.
“I cannot speak highly enough about the incredible support and guidance I received from Brittany during my pregnancy and birth From our initial meeting, I knew she would be incredible support. Her knowledge, empathy, and unwavering support throughout the entire process were invaluable. During labor, she was a calming presence, offering physical and emotional support. With her help I felt empowered and confident in my birthing choices. Thanks to her, I had an amazing birth experience. I highly recommend Brittany to any expectant parent(s) seeking personalized, compassionate care during this transformative journey.”
