Doulas that Accept Cigna in Oregon

Hello families! My name is Becca, 45 years old, and I was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. I am very calm, loving, patient, responsible, and flexible.. Being a birth and postpartum doula is my passion and I find much happiness in this type of work! I have 20+years experience working as a nanny and early childhood education teacher. My education includes Postpartum and Birth Doula training in 2024 and a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education in 2003. I’m also a mother to a wonderful and brilliant twelve year old girl Amelia. I am very active and love the outdoors, hot yoga, healthy cooking/baking and being around animals. I prefer to work in the SW Portland/Tigard/Beaverton/ area but I’m able to travel to accommodate your needs.

Pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood are monumental rites of passage. It is my deepest desire that all families feel seen, supported, and well-resourced through the journey of bringing a child into the world. As a birth and postpartum doula, I am dedicated to offering unbiased support, evidence-based information, and a warm, grounded presence. I am here to walk alongside you and tend to your needs on your unique path to parenthood. My approach is rooted in a blend of traditional wisdom, modern research, and my own experience as a mother and care provider. I value informed consent and strive to ensure the families I work with feel educated and prepared for the profound, transformational experience awaiting them. I deeply trust in the innate wisdom of the body, birth, and maternal instinct. My intention as a birth companion is to be an unwavering source of confidence in your ability to birth your baby. It’s truly an honor to be trusted in such intimate spaces, and it’s a role I don’t take lightly. I am continually humbled by the beauty of witnessing these tender moments. In my downtime, you'll find me spending time with my family, exploring the forest, baking, and nerding out about women's health.

Hello! I am a full spectrum Doula. I have been practicing since 2023. I am fully certified THW, Medicare, Medical, PEBB, OHP and private insurance. I love to cook so helping in the kitchen is fun for me. I am also working on my prenatal massage license and lactation. I have practiced spinning baby techniques and would love to support families looking for a Doula

The fullness of my life has been centered around children and maternal care and learning about herbs and how they support a natural lifestyle. I have been a childcare provider, prenatal to youth (special needs included for years past 18 years of age), for over 30 years. My decision to become a doula, and eventually to become a midwife, has been in the works throughout my life. I have been influenced by other doulas and midwives from the East and West Coast, with a predominance of this influence happening when I was in North Carolina. My mission is to ensure that mothers, and mothers-to-be have the resources, knowledge, and care needed to ensure the healthy births of their children, as well as knowledge of how to care for their newborns and older children. I have experience as a nutritional specialist (chef), well-baby care, well-Mama care, and family care and pre-and post-birth dynamics.

I’m Marquita, a Full Spectrum Birth & Postpartum Doula and founder of Root & Rose Wellness, serving families with compassionate, culturally responsive, and judgment-free care throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and major reproductive transitions. My approach blends evidence-informed education, practical hands-on support, advocacy, emotional care, and deep respect for each family’s individual choices. I support clients in preparing for birth, navigating hospital and healthcare systems, understanding their options, building confidence in their own decision-making, and creating a postpartum experience that prioritizes recovery—not just baby care. As a postpartum doula, I provide daytime and overnight support, newborn care, feeding and lactation support, maternal recovery assistance, meal and household support, education, and space for parents to rest and adjust to life with their new baby. I am also expanding my lactation expertise through advanced IBCLC pathway training. My full-spectrum practice includes birth and postpartum care, pregnancy loss and bereavement support, abortion support, Reiki, and connection to community resources when families need additional support. I have a particular commitment to improving the pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding experiences of Black families and other families who have historically experienced inequities in maternal healthcare. At the same time, my practice welcomes families of all backgrounds, identities, structures, and birth preferences. Whether you’re preparing for your first birth, welcoming another baby, recovering after delivery, navigating feeding, or simply realizing that you were never meant to do postpartum alone, my goal is to help you feel informed, supported, rested, and cared for. Root & Rose Wellness is more than birth support—it’s whole-family care during one of life’s biggest transitions.
