Brooklyn MURPHY
RN, BIRTH DOULA, IBCLC
Ever since I was little, I knew I wanted to be involved in childbirth. I've spent over 20 years working with families in as an RN in Maternal Child Services – that's a lot of deliveries, newborns, and happy parents! I'm also an IBCLC (lactation consultant) – I love helping families navigate their breastfeeding journeys.
As a wife and mom of twins, I know firsthand that birth doesn't always go according to plan. While I dreamed of a water birth at home, I ended up with a positive C-section experience. My goal is to empower you to have the birth experience that's right for YOU. Here's what I offer information and resources to make informed decisions a supportive, judgment-free environment and advocacy throughout your pregnancy and birth My special interests include multiple births (twins, triplets, etc.), LGBTQ+ families, preemies and infant loss. I'm also a babywearing and cloth diaper enthusiast (twins, no problem!). When I'm not working, I enjoy sunrises, sunsets, good company, and board games. My soundtrack? Classic 90s hip hop!
Sav Kellow
BIRTH DOULA
Aloha, my name is Sav, I am a holistic birth and postpartum doula. I am incredibly passionate about birth and believe it is my life purpose to support growing families. I have over 9 years of experience in child and infant care and have worked as a live-in postpartum caregiver. I find that birth work energizes, inspires and challenges me as I am constantly learning.
​
I began my journey as a birth professional by completing two doula trainings. First with Bonnie Slater of Doulas of Maui and then with Sofia Scheuerman and Brooklyn Murphy of Kauai Birthing Wellness.
I am a huge advocate for the innate wisdom of the body and I trust deeply in the unfolding of birth. I focus on ways we can help support hormones in birth and postpartum, regardless of the setting. I am also well versed in the art of healing touch and can offer reiki to my clients and newborns.
​
My special interests include multiples, VBACs and home birth. I offer specialized herbal support including yoni steaming and sitz baths. Soon I will be offering placenta encapsulation.
​
I feel unbelievably grateful and privileged to walk alongside families on this journey and I am so excited to be a part of the Kauai Birthing Wellness team!
SOFIA SCHEUERMAN
BIRTH DOULA & MIDWIFERY STUDENT
My first introduction to birth began as a teenager while growing up in Minnesota. My friend’s mother was midwife and her birth stories always fascinated me. In 2016 I began attending births with a home birth midwifery practice in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Soon after I began doula work in 2017 after completing certification through DONA International. In Minnesota, I worked for Everyday Miracles, a non-profit doula organization serving low income families. I primarily provided doula services to Latino families.
​I moved to Kauai In 2019 and became a licensed massage therapist. My clients enjoy the calming effects of therapeutic massage during pregnancy and birth. I am currently enrolled in The National College of Midwifery with plans of becoming a Certified Professional Midwife. I have done a year long midwifery apprenticeship with Leah Hatcher of Morning Glory Midwifery. During the summer of 2022 I attended births at Maternidad La Luz birth center in El Paso Texas. I am certified in NRP and CPR. ​I've attended over 90 births in hospitals, birth centers and at home. Most importantly, I support families to choose the birth setting that best matches their values. As a dancer, bodyworker and certified yoga teacher I bring an embodied approach to supporting doula clients that encourages clients to reflect upon their own stories. I hope to bring my expertise to your family. Outside of my passion for birth I am a dancer and I love to surf. I enjoy cooking good food, hiking and time with my friends.
