Amber Knowles

Amber Knowles is the owner of Lorelei Lu Doula, she is a mother to three smart and inspiring daughters. Amber previously worked at a trauma center as a radiologic technologist in many departments including the operating room and interventional radiology. Here, she honed her patient care skills, taking pride in what mattered most to her: compassion and respect. Amber’s love for birth work was sparked by my own positive experiences during pregnancy, versus those of some of my closest friends and family. She quickly realized the resources that should be available to all expectant parents, were often not. Having discovered her passion and desire to physically and emotionally support folks throughout their fertility and pregnancy journey, she decided to become a certified birth doula in 2021, through the International Doula Institute. It is with great pride that those trained by IDI support all families, regardless of family style, birthing style, birthing goals, personality style, or parenting styles. Since then she has supported more than 75 families through their birth experiences and postpartum journeys.

Amber recognized the particularly vital role a doula plays in the experience of a client seeking a TOLAC and VBAC. She received her Advanced VBAC Doula Certification through the VBAC Link in 2024 to help clients achieve this goal.
