I am a certified Postpartum Doula serving Seattle and the surrounding areas. I have been working with families for many years as an early childhood nanny and as a doula, and have helping many families through the ups and downs of these early days. I truly love working with a family to help them feel more confident and capable about the choices they are making. I bring a nonjudgmental listening ear and helping hand, and want the whole family to feel brighter every time I'm there. I offer a sliding scale for solo parents, LGBTQIA+ families, BIPOC families, and low income folks - please reach out if you need some assistance!

I am a full-spectrum doula providing overnight and daytime care for families in the Greater Seattle area. I aim to provide a non-judgmental, caring, supportive hand to new parents as they navigate the highs and lows of the fourth trimester. Aiding in the mental, physical, and emotional wellness of the whole family unit is what I live for! Sliding scale available for solo parents, low-income folks, LGBTQIA+ parents, and BIPOC parents.

My practice is rooted in empathy, calm presence, and intuitive support. I believe every woman deserves to feel safe, empowered, and respected throughout their journey. Through my doula work, I strive to hold space with tenderness and strength — offering emotional, physical, and informational support that nurtures confidence and connection for both parents and baby.

A dedicated, capable, and broadly skilled Full Spectrum Doula. My skillset has flourished in the years I’ve spent in professional birth and postpartum care. Having supported over 300 families through pregnancy, labor and birth, and even hundreds more in postpartum, as well as a foundation of 20+ years of NCS experience, I am a seasoned Doula based here in metro Seattle / Tacoma. My competencies are built on the foundation of full-spectrum experience of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I walk hand in hand with families through first, second, and third births as well as the many in-between variations of the experience of growing family. It is important to me to practice with a calm and clear mind, helping to build your confidence and awareness early on, helping you assert your autonomy confidently to be in charge of your experience. At the heart of my work as your doula are the values of trust, honesty, reliability and non-judgmental support. There is no one right way to become a family. My role is to help you feel sure of what is right for you.

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.

Hello, my name is Amanda Hercules, I am a certified international pediatric sleep coach. I am also a foster parent here in the state of Washington. I have been working in childcare since I was 18.

I will never judge or pressure you to do anything. I like to lay all the options out with parents and together choose a method or combination of methods that works for your family!

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.
