Hello there! I’m a newly certified birth and postpartum doula with a deep passion for supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the early postpartum period. I strive to provide compassionate, inclusive, and personalized care, helping parents feel confident and supported every step of the way. I’m currently welcoming new clients and would love to be part of your journey.

Supporting families since 2007 with evidence-based information, hands-on continuous labor support, and advocacy. I am a Dutch gal in the USA, blessed with a husband, 4 kids, and 3 cats. I love getting dirty in my native backyard habitat, knitting, cross-stitching, singing, attending live concerts, and discovering new coves at the coast.​ I was inspired to become a birth professional after my own powerful birth experiences. The birth of my first child was incredibly intense, and I discovered an inner strength that I did not know I had. I learned from this birth that our bodies are incredible and unpredictable and that giving birth was simultaneously beautiful and raw.

Hi families, my name is Anna Barckert. I'm a Postpartum Doula & Newborn Care Specialist with over 25 years of experience caring for newborns. Before working with postpartum families, I was a newborn nanny. I specialize in providing awake care overnights, meaning I stay awake all night during overnight shifts. While baby is sleeping I can help with laundry, bottle/pump parts washing and sterilizing, food prep and light household tasks. Whether I'm helping families get rest or guiding them through challenges that may arise along the way, working with postpartum families is a true passion of mine and I absolutely love what I do. Looking forward to speaking with you soon!

Hello! I’m Jordan, and I'm deeply passionate about nurturing families and caring for little ones. After spending more than a decade as a nanny, I discovered just how much I love showing up for families in whatever way they need, day by day. Being closely connected to many families and dear friends during their pregnancies, births, and postpartum journeys opened my eyes to just how transformative and intense the perinatal season can be. That experience sparked a desire in me to learn everything I could about supporting people during this sacred time, and it quickly became clear that becoming a doula was my calling. I went on to train as a fertility, birth, and postpartum doula, and found myself especially drawn to supporting families during the postpartum period. It's a time that often feels overlooked, despite being so crucial. I completed my postpartum doula certification and began my work, focusing on offering real, tangible support when families need it most. As a postpartum doula, I’m here to walk alongside new parents as they find their footing and build confidence in their own instincts. My approach is rooted in being a calm, grounding, and consistent presence during what can be an overwhelming transition. I tailor my support to meet each family's individual needs because no two postpartum journeys look the same. It’s incredibly important to me that the families I support feel safe, heard, and cared for, every step of the way. One of the biggest challenges I noticed early on was sleep, or more accurately, the serious lack of it. Wanting to better guide families through that hurdle, I became certified as an Infant and Family Sleep Specialist. Supporting families with sleep, including overnight care, has since become a core part of my work and something I care deeply about. As a queer person, I’m especially passionate about affirming and supporting families of all kinds. It’s a true honor to be welcomed into such a personal and powerful chapter in someone’s life, and I’m endlessly grateful for the opportunity to do this work. Please note: I have a the majority of my testimonials on google under Bun and Bundle

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.
