Hi there! My name is Georgia I am a certified labor, postpartum, and abortion doula in the Portland area. I have a degree in Psychology and over 10 years of experience serving young children and families in a variety of settings. As your doula, I am committed to making you feel prepared, held, and empowered every step of the way. I recognize that this work is deeply personal and I strive to get to know my clients and care for them as I would a close friend. As a queer person living with chronic illness, I am particularly passionate about working with the LGBTQIA+ community, neurodivergent folks, and those living with disabilities. My work celebrates all bodies, identities, and family structures and I strive to make my practice as inclusive and accessible as possible.

Every family deserves emotional and practical support during the transformational postpartum time of life. The families I work with receive kind, non-judgemental, evidence-based care, regardless of race, ethnicity, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, or disabilities. I will encourage the wisdom and intuition that already exists in you as a parent. I live in a small intentional community in NE Portland with my partner, two children, and five other wonderful humans.

My philosophy is rooted in the belief that every family deserves compassionate, nonjudgmental support during the transformative weeks and months after childbirth. This care centers around the birthing person’s physical recovery, emotional well-being, and confidence as a new parent, while also nurturing the entire family unit. I provide informed, evidence-based guidance, honoring each family’s unique values, culture, and choices. Rather than taking over, I empower parents by offering reassurance, practical assistance, and education—ensuring that the transition into parenthood is met with strength, comfort, and connection.

I have always had a passion to support women and babies every since I was younger. I have been in the medical field for 7 years now since I graduated high school and am a medical assistant. I have also been a newborn nanny to multiple families. I fell in love the women’s health/OBGYN/labor and delivery when I started as a medical assistant 4 years ago and was a medical assistant for 2 years at a women’s clinic and fell in love with the women’s clinic and got to shadow over 10 births by the midwives and OB’s at the clinic. I am currently applying for nursing school to become a labor and delivery nurse but wanted to be active in this field of work right now, so this is where I decided to become a birth doula. I feel that I am very equipped and experienced in this field and cannot wait to meet you and your family and help you bring your baby(s) into the world in a way you feel comfortable and proud of and I am here to support you along that 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 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

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.

I’m a mom of four—two daughters I had when I was young, and two sons I’ve had in my 30s with my husband, whom I married last year. My journey as a teen mom taught me resilience, the importance of support, and the power of community—lessons I carry with me every day. Family and community are central to my life: I’m connected through our church, and I spend a lot of time with my three sisters, raising our children together, exploring hikes, and finding outdoor adventures. I’ve homeschooled my older daughters from kindergarten through 4th grade, participating in a co-op school and fostering a love of learning along the way. Outside of family, I enjoy volunteering with YoungLives to support teen parents, playing board games, video games and reading. I’ve had a variety of jobs over the years, but the one I’ve enjoyed the most is raising my children—it’s taught me patience, creativity, and a deep appreciation for the small moments that matter most

I’m a birth doula who offers evidence-based, intuition-centered care grounded in informed consent. I believe every family deserves support that honors their unique needs, values, and voice—because no two births are the same. I came into this work through my own experiences, shaped by a quiet strength that has grown into fierce advocacy. Once soft-spoken, I learned to stand tall in the face of adversity. Now, I hold space with both tenderness and power, walking alongside families as they navigate one of life’s most sacred transitions. My care is both grounded and flexible—rooted in knowledge, guided by intuition, and always centered on you.

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
