My name is Brittany Derksen and I have always loved learning new things so when I was pregnant with my son I really started educating myself about pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum. I realized there is so much to know and I have a passion for it all!

 

For myself when labor started, I found it difficult to apply what I had learned because labor took all my focus. I’m sure this happens to others too. This said, I am so thankful we had a doula! Wilma made a huge positive influence on our birth experience! My goal is to provide evidence based information alongside emotional and physical support throughout labor and birth for others.

 

My goal is not to take the place of the partner but instead to enhance your birth experience with knowledge and support.

 

I am a birth doula continuing to get my DONA certification, I also have a degree in kinesiology (the study of human movement). I look forward to helping women/ couples in their journey because every birth matters!
