Allison Riddle Birth & Postpartum Doula in Georgetown, KY
About Allison
Hello, and welcome! I’m Allison Riddle and I’m a passionate Doula, Postpartum Doula and Epidoula supporting moms in Georgetown, KY and surrounding counties! I also provide support with lactation & education. I’m dedicated to empowering women to embrace their birth experiences fully. My first birth turned into an unexpected emergency c-section, which really made me advocate for myself during my second pregnancy. I was able to achieve a successful VBAC and then went on to have an unmedicated VBAC with my third. It was through those experiences that gave me the passion & desire to help other mom’s achieve the birth that they so long for. By providing comprehensive education and support, I help you better understand your options and make informed decisions. My goal is to ensure that you are an active participant in your birth experience, along with walking alongside you during your prenatal & postpartum periods.

Postpartum Planning Session
Together we will come up with a clear & custom plan for how to have the most restful, nourishing & bond building fourth trimester. Having a trained support person through the fourth trimester can be invaluable, but not always in the budget so that is why I’ve created these session opportunities.
What to expect
I offer a wide range of services including prenatal, birth & postpartum. I offer a full comprehensive package which is my favorite. That means I support you as soon as we meet all the way through postpartum. I offer education services, nesting services & a registry building sessions during pregnancy. I offer two birth packages: the "eleventh hour" & full labor support. I offer daytime postpartum support & only offer nighttime support for birth clients & have a postpartum planning session. Prenatal (besides the nesting package) & the postpartum planning session can be done virtually if needed. *birth packages are lump sum due in full 2 weeks prior to guess date or we can split into payments throughout pregnancy
