Find a Childbirth Educator Near Me in Lexington, KY

Hi! I’m a trained birth and postpartum doula who absolutely loves all things birth and babies. I’m currently in nursing school working toward becoming a labor and delivery nurse, and supporting families during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum season is truly where my heart is. Whether you’re preparing for your first birth or welcoming your third, I’m here to offer calm, encouraging, evidence-based care. My goal is to help you feel supported, informed, and empowered every step of the way.

I’m Karissa Pritchett, the founder of D.O.E., and a certified labor and postpartum doula, VBAC specialist, and childbirth and newborn care educator. After having my daughter in 2017, I became deeply inspired by the transformative power of birth. Like many, my experience included highs and lows, and I know how easy it can be to feel overwhelmed or lost in the demands of parenthood. Let’s be real: you are more than just a parent, spouse, or coworker—you’re you. We’re here to give you the rest, guidance, and strength you need to navigate this major life transition smoothly and confidently. Together, we’ll create a plan that works for you and your family, so you can embrace this time with clarity and purpose.
