I have a passion for pregnancy, physiological birth, and postpartum. My goal is to provide women and families with gentle, encouraging, and educational support that helps to build the birthing experience into a cherished family memory.

I believe in our bodies divine design and its ability to bring forth life. I believe in women, not the system. I believe women were created to have a village.

My name is Grace Kovitch and I am a certified birth and postpartum doula, as well as craniosacral therapy practitioner located in Barto, Pennsylvania. When I started off as a birth doula, I quickly saw the drop off in care that happened with postpartum mothers, and have dedicated my career to making sure every new mom is educated, supported, and cared for. Postpartum support is truly where my heart is, and I love seeing the moment where a new mom starts to feel confident in her new role. When I'm not supporting families, you can find me hiking, backpacking, or spending time with my loved ones.

I am trained to be non-biased and have no judgment towards any type of birth. I am excited to attend and support any birth experience that may arise. I provide women with emotional, physical and educational support throughout pregnancy, labor and postpartum. As a Doula, all I want is to be there for you. Let’s get started.

I am honored to share this space with you as a doula, supporting women through hormonal health, fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. My passion for menstrual health began over a decade ago during my senior year of nursing school. I pushed my body to its limits with early mornings, long days, and too much coffee, until symptoms like deep cystic acne and debilitating cramps forced me to listen. I sought out a practitioner who helped me understand my body and its messages, empowering me to heal myself. I went on to study plant medicine, the nervous system, and energy work, earning a master’s in clinical herbalism. In 2021, I moved to a cottage, creating medicinal gardens and deepening my connection with the natural world. The garden taught me how the body mirrors the larger cycles of life, and I now work intuitively with plants, creating teas for the women I support. That same year, I started a relationship that further refined my understanding of emotions and cyclical health. Today, I’m passionate about helping women reconnect with their body’s wisdom to heal themselves, the land, and their relationships. All my love, Kellie

Hi! I'm Gabriella, and I’m passionate about supporting women and families through their fertility, pregnancy, labor, and motherhood journeys. My path to becoming a doula began in 2014 after my own empowering birth experience with my first child. Inspired, I became a certified childbirth educator through the Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth and discovered my deep passion for women’s health and well-being. Over the years, I’ve been privileged to support families in various ways—whether teaching childbirth education, offering lactation consulting, or even serving as a virtual doula in moments of need. My own birth experiences have shaped my practice. From a beautiful birth center delivery to navigating an unexpected emergency C-section, and finally achieving my VBAC home birth, I bring a wealth of personal and professional insight to my work. These experiences have fueled my commitment to empowering families with knowledge, confidence, and holistic care. At the end of 2023, I made the decision to leave my corporate career to pursue my dream full-time. I am currently trained through DONA International, a globally respected organization, and offer compassionate, intuitive support focused on mental, physical, and nutritional health. My approach is holistic and tailored to each family’s unique needs, ensuring that partners feel confident and supported throughout the journey. I am so excited to walk alongside you and help you achieve the birth experience you desire. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby or your fourth, I look forward to being part of your story!

Hi everyone! My name is Kati Frey and I am a Certified Childbirth Educator in Elizabethtown, PA. I am passionate about all things pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I founded BirthPrint after experiencing 2 different types of births: the first was what everyone expected of me and the second was the birth of my dreams. I love listening to everyone's stories and meeting them where they are. No two people are the same, therefore everyone should prepare for childbirth in a way that makes sense to them. This is the foundation of BirthPrint. My particular interests are helping mothers heal from past traumatic birth experiences, answering questions that seem too taboo to ask, and providing evidence based education that makes sense. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my 2 sons and husband, knitting, hiking, camping... pretty much anything outside!
