Kristi’s passion for supporting families was born from her own journey into motherhood. Growing up, she always knew she wanted to be both a mother and a business owner, but it wasn’t until experiencing the transformative power of her own three births that she discovered her calling.
As a Certified Birth Doula, Postpartum Doula, Childbirth Educator, Placenta Encapulator, and now a Midwife, Kristi is dedicated to helping women approach birth with confidence rather than fear. She believes every birth experience is unique and that having compassionate, knowledgeable support can make all the difference.
Through Your Birth Doulas, Kristi and her team provide personalized birth and postpartum support to families throughout Lancaster County and the surrounding areas. Understanding that the postpartum period can be both physically and emotionally demanding, they are committed to ensuring families receive the care, rest, and encouragement they need during this important transition.
Hi! I’m Isabel, a certified DTI full-spectrum birth and postpartum doula living in Lancaster, PA. I developed a love for birth and postpartum during my time as a volunteer in Africa, where I assisted with many births and supported women through the postpartum period. Since returning to PA, I have continued to work with families as a birth and postpartum doula. I love supporting and caring for people, and I am passionate about the birthing experience. It is important to me that you feel seen, heard, and supported through your birth and postpartum journey. Every family is different, and I love that I get to offer support in many different ways depending on a family’s unique situation and needs. A little about me: I love to travel and have gotten to experience many different countries and cultures. I love children and have years of experience working with 0-5-year-olds. I try to spend as much time as I can outside and have enjoyed jobs working on flower farms and with animals.
Hi, I’m Briella! I am a student midwife and passionate birth worker who loves supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the early postpartum period. I have found my calling in helping mothers feel empowered, informed, and cared for during one of the most important times in their lives.
I believe birth is a beautiful and transformative experience, and every family deserves support that is compassionate, respectful, and tailored to their individual needs. As I continue my midwifery education, I am committed to learning, growing, and providing the highest level of care possible. It is truly a privilege to walk alongside families as they welcome their newest little ones into the world.
I look forward to being part of your journey and helping create a positive, memorable experience for you and your family.
Hi! My name is Dana Shannon! I was born and raised in Lancaster County and currently reside in Leola with my husband and 2 sons. As long as I can remember, I’ve always loved babies! I started babysitting for neighbors when I was 12, was a nanny for triplets starting when I was 18, and I’ve babysat and nannied for countless other families since then. I’ve also more recently had the opportunity to help support and educate a number of friends and family members while they navigated the first few months with their newborns. I want to help moms understand that although it might be hard right now, they can and will get through it. The days are long, but the months and years fly by! I feel privileged to come alongside of you and your family in this transition. I am excited to meet you and help support you as a Postpartum Doula!
