I became a doula because I am passionate about creating positive and nurturing labor experiences for all. I want to make you feel empowered to follow your natural instincts throughout labor so you have a deep sense of pride and accomplishment when you are holding your newborn. I will support any choice you make about how you wish to labor. I believe that true empowerment is about your ability to choose what is right for your body.

I strongly recommend having Hua as a lactation consultant. She was both very professional and friendly. I felt comfortable with her as soon as she arrived. In one hour, I got all my questions answered, and I felt so much more confident with breastfeeding, and you will love the massage, amazing!

Hello! I'm Amber, a kind, supportive nanny with over 30 years experience in caring for children from newborns to teenagers. As a night nanny I make sure the whole family gets the sleep they need. Parents have peace of mind knowing their baby will be lovingly and attentively cared for. It is a delight getting to know each family with their unique needs and helping families get through to when baby can sleep through the night. I continue to be proactive with Covid protection by always wearing N95 masks around others. I'm a non-smoker and current on all Covid, flu, and Tdap vaccinations.

Amber has been nannying for us for almost a year now, and she is incredible! She's obviously amazing with the kids, but she also is professional, patient, intuitive, compassionate, and highly experienced. She had an easy time integrating into our household and assisting us with a variety of needs during a complex time in our lives. She takes initiative and is incredibly clear about boundaries and expectations, and effortlessly communicative and easy to talk to. She's the kind of nanny you hire for life: she strives to meet your needs and get to know your family on a level far beyond simple childcare.

Hi! I’m Jaya Mallik (she/her), a birth and postpartum doula in Maple Valley, WA, where I live with my husband, Nathan, and our two daughters, Asha and Diya. My journey into doula work began with my own birth experiences. After an emergency first birth and postpartum depression, I found healing during my second birth with the support of a culturally aligned doula who empowered me and honored my values. Her guidance inspired me to provide the same compassionate care to others. As a Woman of Color and current DEI practitioner, I’m committed to addressing healthcare inequities and ensuring every birthing person feels empowered and supported through this transformative journey.

We can't say enough wonderful things about Jaya! She was a wonderful addition to our birth team and made both pregnancy and labor a comfortable and safe experience. Throughout pregnancy, Jaya was a great communicator. She was always willing to answer our questions and checked in on us as we got closer to the end of our pregnancy. When we met in person to discuss our vision for labor and delivery, she shared an immense amount of information with us and helped us craft a birth plan. She was respectful of all of our wishes and helped us to feel informed and prepared. We were unexpectedly induced before the end our pregnancy. When we found this out, Jaya immediately called us to talk things through. She was kind and gentle and made sure we had the information we needed. When she joined us in the hospital during labor, she brought with her a balance of both calmness and positivity. As labor progressed and we had to make decisions about care, she again made sure we had the right knowledge to make informed decisions. She supported both me and my partner as we navigated the challenges of labor, and helped to bring both joy and serenity into the room. Overall, Jaya was incredibly supportive, kind, and knowledgeable. She made us feel safe, listened to, and empowered. We would highly recommend her for birth doula services, and are very grateful for her support and wisdom.

Hi everyone My name is Desiree and I provide sleep education and coaching services to parents that need help in improving their baby/child's sleep habits. I first assess sleep and routines, make changes and get sleep foundations in place and then work with parents on a strategic way to sleep train their baby / child. Additionally, I rule out other things that could be causing poor sleep such as foods, environment, and / or restricted airways (sleep disordered breathing).
