Hi, I’m Haley Foulkes, a Birth and Postpartum Doula, Reiki Master, and provider of Ayurvedic-inspired postpartum care serving families throughout the greater Seattle area. My passion is helping families feel supported, informed, and cared for during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum transition. As both a mother and doula, I understand how important it is to feel seen, heard, and supported during this season of life. My approach is centered around autonomy, informed choice, and compassionate care. I believe every family deserves support that honors their unique needs, values, and goals. I provide evidence-based emotional and physical support while incorporating restorative practices such as belly binding, herbal nourishment, gentle bodywork, Reiki, postpartum recovery support, and closing ceremonies. My goal is to help families feel grounded, confident, and nurtured as they navigate this transition. I support all family structures and strive to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where parents feel empowered and never alone.

I’m a Birth and Postpartum Doula offering compassionate, individualized support through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery. My care blends evidence-based support with Ayurvedic-inspired postpartum practices to help families feel nurtured, informed, and empowered. Services may include emotional support, newborn care, belly binding, herbal nourishment, gentle bodywork, Reiki, postpartum recovery support, restorative care, and postpartum closing ceremonies, including Closing of the Bones, to support physical, emotional, and spiritual healing during the transition into parenthood.
My partner and I found Haley in a pinch when we decided at the last minute to hire a birth doula. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made. During labor, she was a calming, reassuring presence who helped us feel confident, informed, and supported every step of the way. Her guidance, encouragement, and advocacy made such a difference in our birth experience. What truly surprised us, though, was how much we needed support after our baby arrived. We were completely unprepared for postpartum, and Haley’s care helped us navigate those early weeks with so much more ease. She listened without judgment, checked in on how we were really doing, and helped us feel less overwhelmed during a major life transition. We are so grateful Haley was part of both our birth and postpartum journey.

I was referred to Haley when I was looking for both a Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula, and hiring her for the Full Journey Package was one of the best decisions we made. From pregnancy through postpartum, I felt supported, seen, and truly cared for every step of the way. As our Birth Doula, Haley was an incredible source of calm, knowledge, and reassurance during labor. She helped me feel informed, empowered, and supported through every stage of birth. Having her there made such a difference for both me and my partner. Postpartum was where her care truly shined. The restorative touch sessions, gentle bodywork, belly support, and pelvic steaming helped me feel grounded and brought me back into my body during a time when I felt disconnected and overwhelmed. Her postpartum support went far beyond practical help — she created space for healing, rest, nourishment, and recovery. If you are looking for a Birth Doula or Postpartum Doula in the Seattle area, Haley is absolutely amazing. I truly believe she is one of the best birth and postpartum doulas in Seattle. We are forever grateful for the love, care, and support she gave our family.

Working with Haley as our birth doula completely changed our birth experience for the better. Pregnancy and birth can feel overwhelming, but having someone there who genuinely cared about our family made all the difference. Haley checked in often, answered questions without judgment, and helped us feel more prepared going into labor. During birth, she brought such a calming presence and knew exactly when to offer encouragement, comfort techniques, movement suggestions, and support. My partner also felt included and supported the entire time, which meant so much to us. What stood out most was how seen and cared for we felt. Haley never made us feel rushed or like just another client. She created space for us to make informed decisions and supported our choices every step of the way. We left our experience feeling stronger, more confident, and deeply grateful to have had her in our corner. We would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone looking for compassionate, personalized birth support.

I had the privilege of working with Haley for both birth and postpartum support, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. She creates such a safe, calming environment while offering both emotional and practical support throughout the entire experience. I also experienced Haley’s closing of the bones ceremony, and it was incredibly beautiful and deeply healing. She created a sacred, nurturing space where I felt fully held, supported, and honored in my transition into motherhood. Every detail felt intentional and meaningful, allowing me to slow down, reflect, and truly embrace this new chapter of life. I left the ceremony feeling grounded, cared for, complete, and whole. Her postpartum care was just as valuable as her presence during birth. If you’re looking for a doula who blends professionalism with genuine warmth, intuition, and heartfelt care, Haley is it 🤍

We reached out to Haley shortly after birth because my wife was having a hard time feeling like herself postpartum, and I knew we needed extra support. Haley provided such a calming presence and offered postpartum care that truly helped my wife feel nurtured, supported, and more grounded. The belly wrapping, gentle support, grounding practices, nourishing touch, and postpartum-focused care helped my wife reconnect with her body and slow down during a really intense transition. As a husband, it was such a relief to have someone come in and support not only my wife, but our whole family. What stood out most was how personalized everything felt. Haley truly listened and created care around what my wife needed in that moment. I’m so thankful we found Haley. If you’re looking for compassionate, personalized postpartum support, I highly recommend working with her.

Hiring Haley as our postpartum doula was one of the best investments we made for our family during postpartum recovery. From the beginning, she created a space where I felt safe, supported, and deeply cared for during such a vulnerable transition. Her support went far beyond practical help. Haley provided nourishing meals and teas, emotional support, gentle bodywork, belly binding, pelvic steaming, and the kind of nurturing every new parent deserves. Every visit helped me feel more grounded, rested, and connected to myself again. The Closing of the Bones Ceremony was one of the most beautiful and healing experiences of my postpartum journey. Haley held space for me to process my birth story, reconnect with my body, and feel honored in my transition into motherhood. If you are looking for compassionate postpartum support, Haley provides holistic, heart-centered care that truly supports the whole family. I will forever be grateful for the care, warmth, and support she brought to our postpartum season.
