About Amanda-Birth Doula

Amanda is a birth doula and a former pediatric Medical Assistant of 18 years. She was born into a military family and has since lived in various states across the United States, before eventually settling down in her native Colorado in 2006. Here, she has dedicated herself to raising her three children with her husband. She enjoys being outdoors among nature and caring for her goats, chickens and four livestock guardian dogs on her farm on the eastern plains.

Following her career in pediatrics, Amanda felt a deep-seated calling to the birthworker field. She pursued this passion by obtaining her training as a Birth Doula from Denver Doula Training in 2023 and is currently working on a second training through StillBirthday as a Birth and Bereavement Doula. She is also in the process of certifying through DONA International. Amanda is a certified yoga teacher, trained through Authentic Movements and Certified Placenta Preparation Specialist, trained through Woman's Choice Perinatal Services.

Amanda's mission is to educate and support expecting parents during one of the most significant and vulnerable events of their lives. She firmly believes in the uniqueness of every person, baby and birth, and is committed to treating each one as such. Amanda views the birth space as sacred and brings deep compassion, trust and empowerment to each birthing space.

With an unwavering dream of a future where a doula is an integral part of each and every birth team, Amanda is dedicated to ensuring the arrival of every baby is approached with mindfulness and respect.
