Hi! My name is Becca. I am here for you to help you have an empowering birth and early parenthood experience! I love supporting people, and have a deep passion for birth work! In my work as a doula, I love incorporating mindfulness and confidence building to help my clients thrive. I find that these practices help clients build trust in their bodies and in themselves, as individuals and as parents, and connects them to their inner strength. Some fun facts about me: I love dancing, watching movies, and I am an animal lover! As a child, I grew up on a small farm. My cat Boo is my child. And I even walk dogs and pet sit on the side of my doula business!

My journey into birth work began at the intersection of science and intuition. With a degree in biology, I have a deep reverence for the physiological miracle of birth, but as a certified doula, I know that a healthy birth requires more than just clinical understanding it requires emotional safety, advocacy, and a grounded presence. I bridge the gap between evidence-based knowledge and the sacred, natural process of bringing life into the world. I am here to help you navigate your options with clarity and confidence, ensuring you feel empowered every step of the way.

There is so much information and noise surrounding new parenthood, and I love helping families sort through it all and figure out what actually makes sense for them.

Hello families! My name is Bryannah and I am a trained postpartum doula and newborn care specialist. My background started in pharmacy before pursing a career in childcare where I grew my skill set as a nanny and infant teacher. I finished my formal training in postpartum and newborn care after studying to be a perinatal mental health therapist. My joys of taking care of newborns and babies led me to pursue doula work full-time. I consider myself a jack-of-all-trades for parents. I have a bit of experience in many facets of care including sleep conditioning, supporting perinatal health including mood disorders, and am eager to learn and grow. I pride myself on being trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, believe that pregnancy and birth can be healthy at any size, and work best in an environment that fosters parent/caregiver collaboration. The newborn trenches can be difficult and by no means is every experience “picture perfect” but I would love to be a part of your village and we can figure it out together one step at a time!

Hi, I’m Heidi Terpening, CFSD, BPCE, founder of Azure Coast Doula. I am a maternal-child health clinician with over 27 years of nursing experience supporting individuals and families across the full continuum of care. My nursing career has taken me through NICU, labor and delivery, postpartum recovery, maternal-child health, pediatrics, community health, and school nursing. In these roles, I have supported families through routine and high-risk pregnancies, medically complex births, NICU admissions, postpartum recovery, and the many transitions that come with welcoming and caring for a new baby. These experiences have given me a deep respect for both the clinical and emotional sides of perinatal care, and a strong commitment to evidence-based practice, patient advocacy, and family-centered support. Over time, I came to understand that families often need more than medical care alone—they need continuity, reassurance, education, and someone who can help them feel grounded during moments of uncertainty. This understanding led me to full-spectrum doula work, where I now combine my clinical background with continuous emotional, physical, and educational support. Through Azure Coast Doula, I walk alongside families during pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, pregnancy loss, NICU stays, and medically complex situations. My role is to provide calm, consistent presence and clear, evidence-based information so families can feel informed, supported, and confident in their decisions. I strive to meet each family exactly where they are, honoring their unique needs, values, and experiences without judgment. In addition to doula support, I offer placenta encapsulation, newborn education, and hands-on newborn care guidance. These services are rooted in my nursing experience and are designed to ease the transition from hospital to home, helping parents feel more prepared and confident as they begin life with their new baby. The name Azure Coast Doula was inspired by the calm strength and resilience of the Adriatic coast of Croatia—a place that reflects the energy I hope to bring into every family’s experience. My work is grounded in clinical expertise, steady presence, and compassionate care, with the belief that every family deserves to feel supported, respected, and never alone in their journey. It is an honor to support families through some of life’s most meaningful and transformative moments.

Being a nanny, especially one who works with infants, is a privilege that I do not take lightly and I appreciate the chance to support families during this big change. Across my almost 10-year career, I have worked full-time in a daycare center and six private homes, primarily with newborns and toddlers. I find joy in creating spaces that engage my little ones, planning activities that incorporate all areas of children's development, and seeing the outcomes of those efforts. Outside of the traditional nanny role, I received my birth and post-partum certifications from DONA International in 2021. Since then, I have attended two births and continue to volunteer assisting families in need of support. In 2023 I completed my Newborn Care Specialist training via Newborn Care Solutions to deepen my understanding of newborns, especially those born prematurely and with additional medical needs
