Beach Baby's Doula Services, Inc was established by Mitra Homayounian and Pat Burrell, who together have more than 40 years of experience in the healing arts. Mitra is a certified Ayurvedic therapist, trained at the Chopra Institute, a certified yoga and meditation instructor, and a licensed massage therapist. Pat is a Registered Nurse, who has become an expert in maternal-child health after more than 20 years of experience. Pat directed the Maternal-Child Health program at VNA of Pennsylvania, and served as a health advisor for the Early Headstart Program, where she created the training criteria for non-medical support personnel for pregnant & new mothers and babies. This experience inspired Pat’s creation of the Wholistic Childbirth Education Program. Pat is also a trained lactation counselor and certified hypnotherapist. Both women are trained Doulas and have attended countless births.
