I’d like to share my experience with the exceptional postpartum doula who supported our family during the first weeks of life with our baby. Harneet came into our home and immediately felt like family! we were blown away by the level of knowledge and assistance she was able to provide. It was clear right away that Harneet is truly gifted at postpartum work. She was able to seamlessly integrate into our routine during that vulnerable (and exhausting!) period to provide meaningful, non-judgmental relief and peace of mind in the care of ourselves, our daughter, and our home. She was able to build an instant connection with our baby and was able to give us individualized tips on how to soothe her when she was not around. We would adamantly recommend Harneet's services to any of our family or friends looking for a postpartum doula to provide support and/or guidance for their growing family.

Labor, Postpartum, lactation and Infant Care Specialist (ProDoula) Growing up, I was empowered having been around so many strong, independent women and it led me toward a path of wanting to carry that into my career. I believe that pregnancy and birth and postpartum are monumental life experiences that no one should have to do alone. Every person so matter their background or beliefs deserves support and respect as they venture through this major life transition. My personal philosophy of what doula embodies is a person who stands beside the new parent(s) to help with guidance, validation, and empowerment. For the last decade of my life I have been devoted to this practice, caring for and assisting with dozens of families to thrive in not only their family life but into their communities. And I hope to continue this practice for a long time.

Hello! I am a mom of two, full spectrum doula and student midwife in Tacoma, WA. I’ve spent the majority of life supporting people in various and capacities, but found my calling in supporting families through the perinatal period. “It takes a village” is something I grew up on, but also stand and as a mom myself I know that finding that village can be difficult. My goal as your doula is to help bridge that gap and support you during what some consider a very vulnerable and changing journey. I aim to meet families where they are at and in ways that feel most comfortable for each client. I would love to connect and see if I would be a good fit for you!

Hey! I’m Victoria! I am a dedicated doula and currently a midwifery student, passionate about supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As a mom of six, I understand firsthand the beauty and challenges of welcoming a new baby. I offer comprehensive support including placenta encapsulation, birth photography, and birth pool rentals to help families create a safe, memorable, and empowered birthing experience.

Recent review

Anyone wanting to feel confident and supported in their birth experience I highly recommend adding Victoria to your team. We used Victoria as a doula for our second daughter and from the moment she was hired, access to her vast knowledge base brought so much comfort. She provided a listening ear, and a safe place for talking through my goals and fears surrounding birth. I appreciated her low pressure check ins from an experienced mom who understood the ups and downs on pregnancy. I was in prodromal labor for weeks and though there were quite a few false alarms, I never felt like burden. Including on our daughter’s birthday, we really had to fight to keep my body in labor. Victoria had continuous suggestions and kept us encouraged the whole 14 hour day. Her reminders of my goal to birth without interventions, affirmations that I was strong enough to do it and the untiring counterpressure were instrumental in me having the birth experience I wanted. She also captured beautiful photos and video of the day, did a newborn shoot, encapsulated my placenta, and to go above and beyond; surprised us the next day with a little birthday cake she baked for our new little girl. Everyone deserves a Victoria!

We had a great experience working with Tori as our doula! My wife also had a positive experience with her as a prenatal massage therapist. Tori has a great touch with people and helped us navigate many difficult decisions and situations during my wife’s first pregnancy. Her knowledge and calm demeanor helped us to navigate complications and feel better during this uncertain time. She was also flexible and supportive as our needs changed during the pregnancy. We would definitely recommend Tori to anyone who is looking for a doula.

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.

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.

We truly cannot imagine how we would have navigated the first few months of new parenthood without Nori. Nori’s greatest strengths include her deep wisdom, unmatched knowledge of newborn care, and calm confidence that instantly puts parents at ease. She has a “magic touch” for soothing babies and helping them sleep, and we believe our little guy started sleeping through the night at 10 weeks due to Nori’s gentle, consistent sleep routines. (We were not sleep training at this young age—it was Nori’s consistency and routines she developed for us and our baby that helped our baby know it was time for sleep.) Nori also has a gift for coaching new parents with warmth and empathy: she taught us all the invaluable baby care skills we needed to know—diaper changing, addressing diaper rash, bottle feeding, sleep and bedtime routine, safe sleep and swaddling, soothing, bath routine and hygiene (nail trims etc), and more. She is the most (obsessively!) punctual person I know—we knew we could depend on her to arrive ten minutes early to every single shift. That consistency and reliability really put our mind at ease—my husband and I would excitedly say “tonight is a Nori night!” whenever she was coming and by 5 or 6pm, we already felt more relaxed knowing she would be arriving soon (and always early). She was a reassuring presence in helping us address a few early issues: a dairy intolerance in my breastmilk, and a (worrying-looking but ultimately totally innocuous) skin condition he had early on called transient neonatal pustular melanosis. For the first few months, the only person who could take care of our baby in a way I (the mom) could truly relax (without a single worry or needing to check in to see how things were going) was Nori—because she could provide him an unmatched level of attentiveness, care, and detail orientation. She would notice the smallest things, like a spot of diaper rash or whether to increase the oz in his bottles. Finally, I’ll add that in conversations with our friends about their night nannies and postpartum doulas, we have learned that Nori is truly one-of-a-kind—lots of our friends had wonderful experiences with their doulas/nannies, but no one was truly “Nori level.” She is exceptional and inimitable! We recommend her enthusiastically and without reservation to any family—she is priceless.

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.
