My name is Brittany Randolph, I am trained and certified through Stillbirthday as a birth and bereavement doula,dual trained and certified with DONA and CAPPA as a birth doula and a Lamaze and ProDoula trained Childbirth Educator and a Certified End of Life Doula. I am a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and I have worked as a personal trainer for 22 years and am certified with AFPA as a prenatal and postnatal personal trainer, with a specialized Postpartum Wellness Certification through Jessie Mundell Fitness and Girls Gone Strong, where I have been trained to understand Diastisis Recti issues and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. I have training in the traditional art of Bengkung belly binding for postpartum support. I have spoken on and been a guest for many different discussion panels, I have served on the Board of the Birth Network of Monterey County, and I have served on the Monterey County Maternal Mental Health Board.
It is my firm belief that every woman should be able to experience the birth she wants. I am passionate about helping women achieve their goal for their pregnancy and childbirth. I am also a firm believer that everyone needs information to make the choice that is best for them, so it is my goal to be able to provide the education, information and support each and every families needs, for their unique situation.
Everyone deserves to be heard, respected and cared for when it comes to their own body. Informed consent is a passion of mine and I want to make sure birthing people are heard and respected.
I have been married to my best friend and husband since 2010, and we have 2 daughters who are everything. These three amazing people are the reason for my business, and they make it possible for me to be available to do what I love.
I personally have given birth 3 times, and have myself suffered 10 losses with the ultimate loss of my fertility in 2017. My birth experiences include natural birth, epidural,induction and Pitocin augmentation, so I can empathize and have a deep understanding with women in various labor situations.
As a doula I run my business by the philosophy of “A doula for every woman who wants one.” This means I am available for all types of birth scenarios, including natural, intervention-free births,water births, VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) births, epidural births, home births and cesarean births and every birth in between. I want to help you achieve the birth that is right for you and your baby.
