Erin Patterson

Erin is a DONA International and toLabor trained professional birth doula currently working towards her certification. She is based in Richmond, VA. After 12 years as a board-certified music therapist specializing in neonatal intensive care, children with special needs, and early intervention, she is thrilled to make her passion for pregnancy, childbirth education and birth a part of her professional expertise. Having been an egg donor and surrogate for her cousins, she is especially excited to support families navigating the fertility process, surrogacy, LGBTQ families, poly and non-traditional family groups, and families with children with special needs. Erin believes that all bodies of all genders deserve the most satisfying, empowered birth experience possible. When she isn't nerding out about birth, Erin loves playing music, two-stepping, and bringing home way too many succulents.
