About me

I have been supporting pregnant people for 18 years. I began my journey shortly after my own firstborn came peacefully into this world and the passion was ignited! I studied to be a midwife (CPM) with a number of excellent mentors and qualified in 2011. I have worked in both home and hospital settings as a doula and an excited to now be supporting this community of Clallam County. I am currently only working as a doula (non-clinical support).

Amanda is nothing short of amazing. She served as my doula for our third child, born in 2015 in Kenya. Giving birth seemed daunting at first, but Amanda's confidence, skill, and calm demeanor made everything easier. From the moment that I found out that I was pregnant, she was a source of advice and a trusted confidant, answering my questions and addressing any concerns that I had. When it came time for the birth, our little one was very reluctant to come into this world, but Amanda made the whole experience more positive. She advocated for us with hospital staff and doctors, allowing me to focus on my body and child. Of course, she was also by my side throughout the experience, offering encouragement and even some laughs. After the birth, Amanda continued her high level of care with post-partum wellness checks for both me and baby. We were very grateful to have her with us during this journey. Her dedication to me and our family is still something that I look back on with great fondness.

Amanda was a highly proficient and professional midwife/doula! She supported me (and my husband) throughout my pregnancy and delivery of our first child. With first-time parenting jitters, she provided us both with amazing knowledge, insights and tips as first time parents. We learnt so much during our prenatal classes and felt fully prepared and supported from her guidance. Amanda was an absolute champion during labour and delivery, walking beside us for an extremely lengthy labour. Her support was unmatched and she listened and advocated strongly for us and our son at the hospital. Her post birth assistance was also supportive, thoughtul and highly effective. We can't recommend her enough as a supportive, highly capable and genuinely awesome midwife! 15/10!!

Amanda served as my doula/midwife for my 2nd and 3rd babies. She is a steady and calm presence. Amanda helped me to accomplish exactly what i wanted in both cases: a peaceful homebirth in a birthing pool for one and a peaceful and calm hospital birth for the other. She is an incredible birth advocate, and encouraged me all along the way. I am so grateful for the experiences I had with Amanda and have incredible memories of my births due to her presense there with me!

Amanda was great! She really helped us understand the whole pregnancy process and helped us develop a birth plan with contingencies. She was with us through the labor and the whole birth which lasted 48 hours. She was a solid advocate for us when the doctors and hospital were trying to push us in other directions. I would highly recommend her to anyone even thinking of having children!
