Ashley Brottlund: Full Spectrum Doula

    Practice overview

    I have been a Doula for a little over 4 years. I am trained and certified through multiple organizations. As a full spectrum doula I offer a variety of support services such as; Birth | Postpartum | Pregnancy and Infant loss | Childbirth education | Placenta encapsulation | and more. Along with being a Doula I am also a Midwife Assistant here in Amarillo. This is more than just a career for me, it's a passion and what I love. I've met some amazing families over the years and have been blessed in getting to watch their families grow.

    Care philosophy

    Are you ready to rock your birth? Feel empowered? Feel as though you have control over one of the most exciting moments of your life? It is my goal to help families feel empowered and educated in the choices and decisions they make during pregnancy, labor and postpartum. I teach mothers to become empowered and own their birthing space, to be powerful and to be empowered.
