Meet Kerri Evers

Kerri Evers was raised in the heart of a true Brooklyn village — one of seven siblings, and a daughter to every mother on the block. From a young age, she learned that love, support, and community extend far beyond family. That belief continues to shape her work today.

For over 20 years, Kerri has supported hundreds of families giving birth across New York City. Her work inside hospital settings — alongside OB-GYNs, midwives, and nurses — has given her a deep understanding of how birth unfolds in this environment, and how to help families move through it feeling informed, confident, and supported.

She also played a role in developing one of the first hospital-based doula programs of its kind in New York City, helping to integrate doulas into the clinical team and strengthen collaboration in the delivery room.

Kerri is known for her calm, intuitive, and grounding presence. Families often say it’s not just what she knows — it’s how she makes them feel: steady, supported, and able to trust themselves in one of life’s most important moments.

She is the founder of Brooklyn Birth Shop — a space created for education, support, and community, where families can prepare for birth and early parenthood together.

Kerri continues to build spaces where people feel welcomed, supported, and confident as they enter parenthood — guided by the same values she grew up with here in Brooklyn: love, trust, and a little bit of courage.
