Hi, I’m Kaylie and I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a birth doula based in Portland, Oregon - and service the Portland Metro/Vancouver area. I offer compassionate, personalized support to individuals and families throughout their pregnancy and birth journey. I became a doula because of a deep passion for helping others and a lifelong love for all things birth. I believe that everyone deserves to feel informed, empowered, and supported—no matter their background, choices, or birth preferences. My role isn’t to lead or direct, but to walk alongside you; holding space for your intuition, your voice, and your vision of birth. I trust that you know what is best for you and your baby. As your doula, I’ll be by your side to listen, encourage, advocate, and honor your choices—without judgment and without agenda. I’m here to help you feel informed, respected, and connected every step of the way. Birth matters. You matter. And you don’t have to do it alone.

I am passionate about supporting new and growing families through the transition into parenthood. I have experience caring for infants and newborns, including providing overnight support and helping families feel more confident and comfortable during those early days and nights. I understand that welcoming a new baby is a major life transition, and I strive to support not only the baby but the mother and the entire family. My goal is to provide compassionate, dependable, and hands-on support while respecting each family’s individual needs, routines, and parenting choices. Whether it’s caring for the baby overnight, helping with newborn needs, providing reassurance to new parents, or simply being a calm and supportive presence, I am committed to helping families feel cared for, supported, and less overwhelmed during this important chapter.

I’m Sherilee Peters, the owner and founder of Baby Nest Birth Services. For over 20 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 beautiful the birth process could be. After having my own baby, I became passionate about educating and supporting parents, so they could have less fear. I am a mother of two (now grown and empty nesting), a Birth & Postpartum Doula, a Bradley Method Birth instructor, and a certified placenta specialist serving the Vancouver, WA, and Portland, OR areas.

Hello! I'm a midwife in Forest Grove, OR, a small town west of Portland. I work with a small, skilled and dedicated team, and we have a cute office where we do most appointments. I believe that every birth deserves to be held sacred, and it should be honored as a sacred event. I do my best to blend ancient midwifery wisdom and modern medical tools to keep Mom and Baby safe and healthy while still giving the birth the time and space it deserves to unfold in its own way. I believe in providing clients the information and supporting them in their decisions. I focus on trust and relationship. The greatest goal for me is not just a healthy birth, but also for the family to feel stronger and supported during their experience. I hope my clients leave care feeling empowered and trusting their own intuition.

Hi, I’m Reegan! 🤍 I’m a birth and postpartum doula, and I’m especially passionate about helping families feel cared for, supported, and a little less overwhelmed during those first days and weeks with a new baby. Postpartum is a huge transition—and I don’t believe you’re meant to figure it all out on your own. I’m here to be an extra set of hands, a calm presence, and someone you can turn to when you’re tired, emotional, unsure, or simply need a moment to breathe. I offer practical newborn support, feeding support, postpartum care, light household help, nourishing meals, and lots of encouragement as you find your rhythm as a new family. I also provide birth doula support, helping you prepare for birth and offering continuous emotional, physical, and informational support throughout labor. Whether your birth goes according to plan or takes an unexpected direction, my goal is to help you feel informed, heard, and supported in your choices. A little about me outside of doula work: I’m a birth photographer, I love being outside, gardening, cooking, taking walks and bike rides, and spending time with my family. I’m a big believer in creating community and making people feel like they have someone in their corner. I want my clients to feel like they can exhale when I walk through the door. You don’t need to have everything figured out—I’m here to meet you where you are, care for you as a whole person, and help make the transition into parenthood feel a little more supported. 🤍 -DONA doula certified -CPR -15 years in childcare experience

Hello, my name is Brooke Jackson, and I am a mother of two beautiful children. I offer full-spectrum doula and postpartum care with compassion, grounded in advocacy and respect for each family’s unique journey. With over three years of experience supporting pregnant and parenting individuals, I provide knowledgeable, steady, and heart-centered care throughout the prenatal, birth, and postpartum periods. My background includes working in a hospital setting at OHSU, where I gained valuable insight into medical systems, collaborative care, and patient advocacy. I support families in creating thoughtful, flexible birth plans, offer evidence-based information to support informed decision-making, and provide practical, nurturing guidance in newborn care and postpartum recovery. I am open-minded, nonjudgmental, and deeply committed to honoring each family’s values, culture, and goals. I believe informed choice, continuous support, and compassionate care are the foundation of a positive and empowering birth and postpartum experience.

My love of childbirth was ignited after the birth of my first daughter.  I was blessed with continuous support during my own birth experience and knowing the difference it made for me, I was inspired to be a part of a community of women helping each other through the most transformative and empowering moment of their lives.  My journey began focused on midwifery; however, after learning of doula work and the direct, personal impact it can have on a woman’s birth story, I knew this path was a better fit for me.  As a student of Mother Tree Birth Services, I completed a DONA approved birth doula training in 2014, followed by a 6-month intensive birth doula internship. I support all types of birth in all settings. I’m trained in Hypnobirth, the Mongan Method as well as traditional natural birth methods in addition to planned epidural birth. I will support your choices as if they were my own.
