Emma Buchanan - Birth Doula

About Emma

Hi! I’m Emma Buchanan: follower of Christ, wife, mama, and certified birth nerd. I am a birth doula serving Pierce County, WA and surrounding areas. I believe birth is a normal, physiological, and deeply spiritual experience. I believe that birth almost always works best on its own, but I am thankful for skilled providers when needed! My goal is to provide education, peace, joy, and encouragement to you prenatally, in labor/birth, and in postpartum. I also want you to feel empowered and confident going into your labor, birth, and postpartum. If this sounds like your jam, let’s connect!

Having Emma as my doula was one of the best decisions I made for my birth and postpartum experience. From the very beginning she made me feel supported, informed, and confident in my choices. Her calm presence, encouragement, and knowledge were exactly what I needed during such a vulnerable time. I truly felt cared for and am so grateful for her. I would recommend her to any mama looking for loving, grounded support.

I highly recommend booking with Emma if you are pregnant and preparing for birth. As a first-time mom, I felt so supported throughout the entire process. Emma did an amazing job educating both my husband and me and helping us feel confident going into labor and delivery. Emma is incredibly personable, and we felt a genuine connection with her right from the beginning. She is very knowledgeable, answered all of our questions thoroughly, and shared so many helpful resources and links for us to reference along the way. During labor, Emma came to our home and helped me work through contractions with calm, steady support. At the hospital, she helped guide us through unexpected decisions that came up and supported both my husband and me so we never felt alone or overwhelmed. I’m so grateful we had Emma as our doula and would absolutely recommend her to any expecting parents.

Emma is a fantastic doula and was very helpful preparing my wife and I for our first childbirth experience! We both felt very confident and informed after our preparation meetings and she was always available for any questions we had leading up to the birth. She was a great support for us during my wife’s lengthy labor, and we were very grateful she was with us in the hospital helping us made decisions and feel confident. I would definitely recommend her services!
