Whitney the Doula

Whitney the Doula It is truly my desire to serve, support, an empower you through your pregnancy journey. I can’t wait to serve you through your own birth journey!

My name is Whitney Kuefler and it is truly my desire to serve, support, and empower you through the passage to parenthood. My career as a birth doula bloomed from blending two of my passions, birth and relationship building. My intent is to be your sounding board, your listening ear, your cheerleader, and a source of comfort. Being able to walk with you on this journey by being a steadying and non-judgmental presence is a deeply gratifying and humbling experience. I reside in the south suburbs of the Minneapolis/Saint Paul metro with my husband, son, and twin daughters. In my spare time you will find me with my nose in a book, hands in the garden, connecting with friends over a cup of tea, and exploring the outdoors with my family.

After 16 weeks of intense studying, attending weekly classes, passing weekly quizzes, connecting with other doulas for study sessions, watching oodles of videos, I am excited to announce that I am officially a Body Ready Method® Pro!

As a Certified BRM® Pro, I'm trained to help pregnant individuals keep their bodies strong and functional. I focus on creating balance, support, and mobility to make childbirth easier and aid in a smoother recovery afterward. Understanding how the body moves during birth helps me guide my clients through the process, ensuring they have the best experience possible.

Such a great video from David, a dad on what a doula does and how it benefited him as partner in the birth space. Doulas support not only birthing persons, but partners as well.

Bringing a baby into the world is life changing so why not have someone there to support both of you in a series of moments you will never forget!" 🙂

Hey Guys, hiring a Doula is one of the smartest things you and your pregnant partner can do as you make way into the 3rd Trimester. Beyond just supporting yo...

Birth is a time of transformation is so many ways. Let's honor that by asking the birthing person about their story of transformation and how it changed them as rites of passage always do.

To learn more about Britta Bushnell's thoughts on birth as a transformation listen to Birthful's podcast and/or read Bushnell's new book. I highly recommend them both.

“When you work with a doula, you can always reach out with questions or concerns.”
This article by Lauren Valentine really breaks down how a doula takes time for you night or day during your pregnancy making them one of your biggest advocates.

From comprehensive coaching to emotional, physical, and educational support, three doulas spell out exactly what they do.
