Hi, y’all! I’m Kaitlyn. I set out to create a better future for women as we embark into motherhood; One where women feel supported, informed, and powerful, not afraid. & thus, The Fit Doula was born.

I became a mom when I was 27 years old, seemingly at the peak of my career in fitness, working for an unsupportive company and barely getting by.

When my OBGYN told me I required a cesarean delivery, I didn't know any better but to comply.

Little did I know, these puzzle pieces would lead me here….

I left a company that didn’t respect me as a mother to start my own brand and I learned a tremendous amount about birth.

I chose to blend my knowledge of human anatomy and biomechanics with birth work to empower women to better understand their bodies for a more empowered and autonomous perinatal journey.

Today, I have coached hundreds of women and supported 100 births (and counting) with the fullest heart!

I’VE HELPED MY CLIENTS SEE RESULTS LIKE…

  • "When H was finally born, I’ve never felt so proud of myself. It was truly euphoric to know what I was capable of and hold my baby for the first time. Kaitlyn helped us defy the odds for a beautiful + perfect delivery, something I will be forever grateful to her for."

    - Katherine V.

  • "My husband, who was initially on the fence about working with a doula, is still singing her praises. Kaitlyn’s calm demeanor put him at ease as she coached him through various support positions and coping mechanisms which helped him fully show up for me as my partner."

    - Kate O.

  • "I feel strong. I feel brave and I have Kaitlyn to thank for her training, her doula services and her guidance."

    -Samantha A.

  • "Once in labor, and driving to the hospital, my husband and I kept chatting about how calm we both felt – I really felt like I was in good hands and had the best advocate in Kaitlyn."

    - Devin B.

  • My kids are truly the coolest people I know.

    Rhys is 5. He's a Gemini. He loves music, jokes, and math. He's wicked smart (he taught himself how to multiply!) and has the kindest heart.

    Betty is 2. She's a Sagittarius (like her mama). She is determined, fierce, and witty. She loves playing with her brother and eating snacks.

  • I have been in the DC fitness community since 2011 and started as an indoor cycling coach. Currently, I teach part time at SoulCycle. Needless to say, I love riding bikes that go nowhere to loud music!

    Most of the week, however, you'll find me lifting heavy weights and tossing barbells around at VIDA.

  • I adore all of my clients and many of them have become dear friends! I find that my ideal client is passionate about her goals and dreams, wants motherhood to enhance her life, and she has a little grit. ;)

  • I am a Dewey Beach girl and live for my summer weeks in DE. Orange Crush from Starboard, please!

    I also love Deep Creek Lake in the fall and winter for cozy mountain vibes.

  • Total toss up between steak frites and a cheeseburger!

  • My favorite music artists are Shania Twain and Lil Wayne. You could say my taste in music is super eclectic!

    And as a SoulCycle instructor, I vibe out to wide variety of Hip Hop, Trap, Tribal, and EDM!
