Hi there, just looking to see if I can help!

I’m Sherilee Peters, the owner and founder of Baby Nest Birth Services. For over 18 years, I have been supporting parents in having empowering birth and postpartum experiences. Growing up on a recreational farm in Canada, I watched animals give birth from a young age, which gave me my first realization of how natural the birth process could be. I am a mother of two, a Birth & Postpartum Doula, a Bradley Method Birth instructor, and a certified placenta specialist serving the Vancouver, WA, and Portland, OR areas.

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 love taking care of new families! I have owned my own birth and postpartum doula practice for almost twenty years. These days I am focusing primarily on the postpartum side of things, bringing my vast knowledge of lactation to the forefront as I am working towards becoming a certified consultant. I believe educating parents with evidence based information tailored to their specific needs and desires is a key aspect to feeling prepared for their new life journey. I am calm under pressure and offer a steady and reassuring comfort. It is my goal to hear and understand what you are hoping for and offer the best care possible to meet your goals.

Hello lovely families! I’m a postpartum doula, lactation counselor, and newborn care specialist, as well as a mother who has personally navigated the joys and challenges of early parenthood—including my own experience with postpartum depression. That journey deepened my commitment to holding space for families during the tender postpartum period, offering not just practical support but also emotional presence and understanding. With over seven years of experience leading an infant classroom and working as a nanny, I bring a strong foundation in early childhood development and hands-on infant care to the families I serve. My work is grounded in community care and social justice, centering the needs of marginalized families who too often face gaps in postpartum support. I approach each family with a holistic lens, blending evidence-based newborn and lactation guidance with an unwavering commitment to equity and collective healing. Supporting parents isn’t just my profession—it’s a calling shaped by lived experience, continued learning, and a deep love for this vital, sacred transition
