I recently had the pleasure and experience of participating in Brandilyn's Postpartum Birthkeeper Course.
The course itself is richly curated with in depth postpartum care and world class guest speakers who shared their knowledge and wisdom. Even if I wasn't stepping into a birthkeeper role, I would still take this course for the information on postpartum care alone.
The material had a balance of food preparations, Ayurvedic practices, supportive information on the nervous system, pre and postnatal psychology, rituals, energetic work, and basic lactation support.
The cohort had small classroom vibes that allowed for connection and conversation to take place during and outside of class. I felt fully supported in this learning environment.
I have such a deep respect for Brandilyn and how she’s birthed her vision of the Mother’s Hive into being. I highly recommend taking her course.

The Mother’s Hive Postpartum Doula Training exceeded all my expectations. It wasn’t just a course; it was a transformative experience. The training provided a deep dive into the essential skills and knowledge needed to support new and seasoned mothers, and the deep reverence that has been lost for holding mothers during the first 6 weeks after bringing life into the world.  It also fostered a beautoful sense of community and sisterhood.

Brandilyn is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated. Her hands-on approach and real-world insights made the learning process engaging and impactful. Beyond the foundational aspects of the training, I feel a genuine connection to the work and a renewed passion for supporting mothers and families.

The curriculum covered is one that I have not seen in other postpartum doula trainings. It’s a beautiful blend of east and west and incorporates the psychological and spiritual component of what it means to become a mother. The supportive network and the collaborative learning environment created a sense of belonging and inspiration.

I highly recommend the Mother’s Hive Postpartum Doula Training to anyone looking to make a meaningful impact in the postpartum field. It’s more than just a training; it’s a revolution to hold mothers and babies with the deepest reverence.

I completed the Postpartum Birthkeeper certification with The Mother's Hive and what an incredibly beautiful 8 week container it was. From the specially curated list of guest speakers to Brandilyn's years of knowledge and wisdom to the wonderful group of women it connected me to, the course exceeded my expectations in every way. The material was digestible and self paced if needed, allowing me to participate with my 7 month old from home. It also went more in depth than other trainings I've ever seen - truly encompassing what it is like to care for Mama not just through food, but mind, body, and soul. Having just gone through my second postpartum initiation, and very much still being in it, the course brought so much insight as to what I had just experienced, merging science with spirituality, and allowing me to integrate becoming Mother Again. Postpartum is such a sacred and vulnerable window and this course made me excited, confident, and held in supporting myself and other mamas to be in their own postpartum journeys. I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who wants to learn more about this transformational moment in a woman's life. Thank you brandilyn for creating this much needed work in the world! Xx

I’m feeling so very grateful for the care I received from Courtney with The Mothers Hive. She championed with me through the holiday (and freeze) season during my first 40 days. Each visit made me feel like I had a partner and advocate to walk along side me. I looked forward to prioritizing self care and bodywork rituals during her visits. She also helped my older son feel loved and involved, which he craved so much.

My most treasured memory was a ceremonial sound bath that Courtney facilitated for me at the end of my 6 weeks postpartum. It was a beautiful invitation to reflect on my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and I look back on it with warmth in my heart.

I also got to experience Brandilyn’s nourishing meals during this time. She is a wonderful cook! I have tried frozen ayervedic foods in the past and these are not that… as well as next level in terms of flavor. It was such a comfort to know my fridge was full of nourishing meals.

Overall, The Mothers Hive not only provided care and nourishment, but added subtle details to make things feel extra special like rose petals in a bath or desserts made in cute molds. Those little touches were very meaningful to me.

I was on the fence about signing up for postpartum care, but I am so glad I did! Brandilyn and the Mother’s Hive services are unparalleled to any other out there. From the warm and nutritionally healing meals and bone broth, being able to process your birth openly, and the physical care like womb massage, sitz bath and yoni steam preparations with organic herbs accompanied by a crystal bowl Sound Bath. It really is a breath of fresh air and I felt revitalized after each visit. My only regret was not getting more sessions. My suggestion is that you keep your baby registry simple with just the key essentials and add a group gifting or cash gift option for postpartum care. You don’t really know how much it matters until you’re in it! Prioritize your healing and sacred window after birth, you will be so glad you did. I couldn’t have imagined my postpartum period without Brandilyn and her support, knowledge and compassion.

WOW what a dream!! The perfect postpartum nourishment— from hearty stews and bone broth, to delicious lactation treats and healing teas. Brandilyn’s passion for supporting mamas shines through in all she does. Receiving in this way allowed me to focus on caring for my newborn and took the stress out of figuring out what to eat. I felt so grateful to be so filled up by beautiful, nutritious, YUMMY food during this sacred time. I can’t recommend the Mamas Hive highly enough for postpartum support.
