Bereavement Doulas in Bothell, WA

Hi! I am Bryana, an experienced certified birth and postpartum doula and birth photographer that has a love for all things birth! As a mother myself I know how important it is to have support through pregnancy and postpartum. I opened my business with the hope of providing full spectrum support to families by giving them a steady, reliable presence, and by giving them a strong foundation to take on parenthood. Through advocacy, guidance, and continuous support, I ensure that my clients feel empowered and informed every step of the way. As a mother with a deep passion for caring for others, I understand firsthand the importance of nurturing and uplifting families during their journey into parenthood and that is exactly what I aim to do!

The support we need during birth and early parenting is intimate, it is unique to each person experiencing it. It is a vulnerable time, one in which we are forced to expose the most raw and real version of ourselves. We need personalized care that addresses our physical, and emotional needs. We need an expert who is committed to our process and our transition through it. I'm Carrot insurance approved. The best way to contact me is through my website www.wholeheartdoulas.com because messages come to me directly.

I’m Maria, and I also go by Mayte. I am a birth and postpartum doula, Medical Assistant, mother, emotional-support practitioner, and founder of Luna Moon Doula. My experience in reproductive healthcare allows me to understand pregnancy and birth from inside the clinical environment. I know how quickly appointments can move, how overwhelming medical language can feel, and how easily a family’s emotional needs can disappear behind procedures, monitors, and decisions. For the past two years, I have also been pursuing the educational pathway toward becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I offer compassionate, evidence-informed breastfeeding and infant-feeding education—from preparing before birth to supporting positioning, latch, milk supply, pumping, and the early feeding ransitions. My approach bridges clinical knowledge with deeply personal, holistic care. Depending on what feels supportive to you, I may incorporate movement, breathing, emotional grounding, visualization, and the calming sound of singing bowls. I welcome every family and support unmedicated, medicated, induced, vaginal, and cesarean births with the same respect and care. Support is available in English and Spanish.

I am a postpartum doula with over 20 years of experience as a certified nurse-midwife in Japan. Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to supporting mothers, newborns, fathers, and other family members. I am also an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) since 2007, with a strong passion for assisting mothers with breastfeeding. Additionally, I hold a Master of Arts in Psychology and have worked as a certified public psychologist in Japan, focusing specifically on the prevention of perinatal depression. I am available both during the day and overnight. Please get in touch with me for more information.

My name is Rae Pittenger-Jimenez (she/they); I am a midwife, full-spectrum doula, and analog film photographer living in the Pacific Northwest. With over a decade in perinatal healthcare, my work weaves together clinical care with photography and writing, creating a body of work that is both interpretive of the reproductive experience and indexical to the unseen labor of family-building and parenthood. My creative and support practice is informed by years of clinical experience in prenatal, intrapartum, and postpartum care, combined with my own experiences of pregnancy, birth, and parenthood.

I am a registered nurse with 25 years of experience in labor & delivery, maternal and child public health, and pediatrics. I have been providing postpartum doula services to friends and family, informally, for many years. I have chosen to make postpartum doula care my full- time work because I believe that every birthing and non-birthing person deserves deep support after the birth or adoption of a baby. With an extensive background in caring for medically complex infants and children, as well as socially vulnerable populations, I am passionate about providing equitable, trauma-informed care to everyone. As your postpartum doula, I will support you and your family in the ways that feel best for you. You, your baby, and your family are always at the center of my care. When your body and soul feel safe and loved, anything is possible. Providing support to all families, with a focus on: ❤️ Families with infants who may require care in the NICU, including premature infants, medically fragile infants, and infants with special needs. 🧡 Families with multiples (twins, triplets, etc.) 🏳️‍🌈 LGBTQIA+ parents 💛 Neurodiverse parents 💚 Birthing person/families who have felt mistreated, unheard or not valued by the medical and other systems in this country 💙 Anti-racist and equitable care for all bodies 💜 Please reach out to me for more information on other services available, including abortion and perinatal loss doula support.

Hi, I’m Fiona Mortensen, founder of Little Pines Doula. I’m a certified postpartum doula, student lactation counselor, and a mom to two little boys under two, proudly supporting families throughout the Greater Seattle and Tacoma areas. My passion for birth and postpartum work began during my time as an EMT in King County, where I had the unforgettable experience of helping a mother deliver her sixth baby. That moment opened my eyes to the beauty and privilege of supporting families during such a powerful transition. Since then, I’ve welcomed my own children—first via cesarean and then through a VBAC—experiences that have deepened my appreciation for the importance of informed, compassionate care throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. With a background in emergency medicine—including work on a NICU/PICU transport team and as an ER Technician at Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital—I bring a steady, grounded presence and a blend of clinical knowledge and heartfelt support to my doula practice. At Little Pines Doula, I offer non-judgmental, personalized care to meet each family’s unique needs. I especially love helping new parents build confidence and connection as they adjust to life with their baby. Outside of doula work, I love exploring new parks with my boys, relaxing at the beach, and enjoying the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. At home, you’ll often find me curled up with an embroidery project and my cats, or sharing laughs and playful moments with my family. I believe joy and humor are essential, and I bring a light-hearted, down-to-earth energy into every family I support. I’m also passionate about learning and am always deepening my knowledge in birth, postpartum care, and lactation—not only to better serve my clients, but because I genuinely love continuing to grow. I truly believe the postpartum period can be one of the most beautiful and transformative times in a family’s life. It’s an honor to walk alongside families during this tender season—and to bring warmth, wisdom, and a few smiles along the way.

Hello! My name is Sheilena and I am a full spectrum doula, birth photographer, placenta specialist, herbalist, student midwife and lactation educator. I serve families in the Puget Sound area and pride myself on taking a whole person and holistic approach when supporting my clients, balancing natural/physiological methods with western medicine. Each client gets an individualized approach as I use my variety of skills, experience and knowledge to support them in ways that feels best to them, but still encompasses advocacy, physical and emotional support, education and more.

I'm a Christian birth and postpartum doula. I also offer Sibling Doula services. Every woman deserves to be supported and celebrated through her journey of motherhood. I'd be honored to be a part of it!

I’m a mom to two beautiful girls, a passionate birth doula, and someone who loves showing up for families during one of the most incredible — and life-changing — journeys there is. Years ago, I walked away from a decade-long career as a lawyer and followed my heart straight into birth work. Supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum feels like home to me — it’s where I come alive. Caring for others has always been second nature, but there’s just something about standing beside a family as they meet their baby that fills me up in a way nothing else does. My approach is simple — warm, personal, and rooted in trust. I believe every woman deserves to feel safe, supported, and truly seen as she steps into her power. Birth is raw, real, and different every time — sometimes full of joy and laughter, sometimes messy, emotional, and intense. I’m here for all of it — holding space, offering steady support, and reminding you that you are never in it alone. There’s no script, no one-size-fits-all here. I show up ready to meet you where you are — tuning in, listening, and walking beside you every step of the way. My goal is to make you feel held, informed, and confident, so you can look back on your birth story with pride. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll usually find me soaking up time with my girls — whether that’s cooking up something delicious, getting outside, or cheering way too loudly at the rink for my hockey-playing daughter (my proudest role might just be hockey mom!). Nature is my reset button, and the sauna-my happy place to unwind, reflect, and breathe. I’m also fluent in Russian and feel incredibly honored to support Russian-speaking families here in the Greater Seattle area — though truly, my heart is wide open to families from every background and walk of life. If you’re looking for a doula who’s warm, grounded, and 100% in your corner, I’d love to connect. You deserve support that feels like a soft place to land — and I’d be honored to be that for you.

Hi, I’m Elena (she/her), a certified postpartum doula! I grew up bilingual, speaking German and Italian, and developed a deep love for connection through language. Becoming a mom changed everything for me, and it revealed just how crucial support is in those early days of parenting. It inspired me to follow my true calling: nurturing new parents and helping them build a strong foundation for this incredible chapter of their lives. My approach is deeply influenced by the German tradition of Wochenbett, which emphasizes rest, recovery, and bonding in the weeks after childbirth. I strive to create a nurturing space with personalized care that fosters connection, ease, and confidence as families grow into their new roles. I bring warmth, empathy, and a calming presence to every family I support, honoring the unique needs of each household. It’s a profound honor to walk alongside parents during one of the most tender times of their lives. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll find me exploring new places with my husband and son, practicing yoga, or simply soaking in the beauty around us.
