Hallie Dedrick, Birth Doula
Hallie realized she had a strong desire to work with pregnant women after the birth of her daughter in January 2007. Through her personal experience, she learned the importance of having knowledge about pregnancy, labor and birth, and the value of a positive support system. This had led her to pursuing her certifications for being a Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator, and Lactation Educator. Hallie believes that birth is a sacred event and is always honored to be part of it. She also has a love for helping fathers/partners become involved on their comfort level, creating memories and strengthening family bonds. She has experience with birth in both hospitals and birth centers. Hallie has supported moms with natural, medicated and cesarean birth. She is certified in CPR and NPR (Neonatal Resuscitation), and is in training as a Birth Assistant at Breath of Life Birth Center in Largo. Hallie lives in central Pinellas County along with her husband and daughter, and their two corgis. She has a love for music, dogs, movies and spending time with family and friends. |
