  • Wait… There’s a Doula for Grandparents?! | Kimberly Bepler – Part 1
    Oct 4 2026

    What exactly is a Grandparent Doula? We didn’t know either — until we met Kimberly Bepler of ABC Doula!

    In this special two-part episode of Being Grandparents, Kimberly joins Stevie and Deanne to talk about an important part of her work: helping grandparents prepare for a new addition to the family.

    Becoming a grandparent is exciting, but it can also bring new expectations, changing family roles, and questions about how much — or how little — to help. Kimberly shares practical advice on communicating with your adult children, respecting boundaries, offering meaningful support, and working together to become the grandparents both you and your kids feel your new grandbaby needs.

    Whether you're expecting your very first grandchild or you've been a grandparent for years, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on building stronger relationships as your family grows.

    And yes… there really is such a thing as a Grandparent Doula!
