Hello! I’m Amanda, mom of five (one angel baby), coffee lover, Hallmark movie watcher, and confident birth teacher and encourager! 😊 I have been teaching Bradley Method® classes for over 10 years, and I offer classes year-round, so I likely have a series that works for you. I would love to help you find the perfect fit for your schedule and needs.
All classes are held live via Zoom, which has been a huge benefit for busy couples (cutting out commute time, fitting around dinner routines, and allowing you to learn in the comfort of your own home). Because classes are fully online, you don’t need to be local to join. Just keep in mind that most group classes are in the evening, Eastern Standard Time (EST).
My classes are small by design to ensure each couple gets personal attention. They’re also fully interactive. You’ll be doing everything you would in an in-person class, including labor position practice, relaxation techniques, comfort measures, games, discussions, and more.
My goal is to create an experience that’s not just educational, but also relaxed, engaging, and even fun!

💗 TESTIMONIALS 💗
“We couldn’t put a price on the value of Amanda’s services as our doula. She is kind, attentive and just a joy to be around. Amanda was extremely helpful before, during and after birth. She is very prompt to answer texts/emails and is full of knowledge about all aspects of birth. Without Amanda’s presence at our birth, we might not have been able to achieve the natural birth we hoped for – she and my husband traded off doing hip squeezes for 15 hours! You won’t regret hiring Amanda as your doula!”

“Amanda is nothing short of incredible. We not only took her Bradley Method class, but also hired her as our doula. Our labor was relatively fast and short, so she was only with us physically for maybe two hours of it—but her support leading up to those two hours via text and of course the class were invaluable and we believe what allowed us to have the birth that we hoped for. Amanda was always available in the months leading up to delivery to answer questions and provide support and even more so postpartum. Amanda has become more than a doula to me—she has become a cherished friend. We will definitely continue to keep her part of our lives and would recommend her as a teacher and doula to anyone we care about.”

“Amanda is the sweetest, kindest, most wonderful soul and doula!! We’re forever grateful that she is a part of our birth story! I went into preterm labor at 31 weeks and Amanda helped keep us calm. I was on bed rest for 6 weeks until went into labor again. My cervix was dilating more on one side and she helped me with exercises to make it dilate evenly… didn’t even know this was a thing! Labor stalled and we went home at 7cm (so fortunate our OB was supportive of our request). Four days later, my OB broke my water and we had a beautiful, natural, unmedicated delivery largely thanks to Amanda! She kept my husband and me very calm through the rough bits. We both agree our birthing experience would’ve been completely different, anxious, and chaotic without her. With Amanda, there was so much peace in the room because she has such a wonderful energy! We LOVE Amanda and will forever be friends! If you are looking for a doula, there is no one better than Amanda! I tell anyone who is considering a doula in Cincinnati to contact Amanda! If we have another baby, we will most certainly want Amanda by our side! Thank you Amanda for being a part of our birth story!!”
