Hi there! I am Neha, a birth and postpartum doula based in Sammamish, WA. My path to becoming a doula was shaped by my own births and medical experiences at Northwest Hospital, Swedish Issaquah, and Virginia Mason. I know the power of a doula because I lived it twice, whose presence completely transformed my experience. She was the anchor that kept me grounded, providing the safety I needed to trust my body. I know that even the most empowered birth can be followed by a challenging recovery. My own postpartum transitions were marked by the reality of Postpartum Anxiety (PPA), a difficult breastfeeding journey, and a 5 finger diastasis recti that required patience and dedicated healing. These challenges were humbling, but they were also my greatest teachers. My Commitment to You: Full-Circle Care: Dedicated support throughout your pregnancy, labor and postpartum check-ins as you settle into your new life at home. Cultural Heart: A deep respect for your family's traditions and a commitment to honoring them from pregnancy through postpartum. Advocate and Empower: Empower you with resources and advocate for your choices in the birthing room.

I am Latha Ram, a DONA trained birth doula, ICEA/Lamaze trained childbirth educator. My path into birth work began after my own birth experience opened my eyes to how modern birth can often feel overwhelming, clinical, and isolating. I found myself asking: when did women and families begin walking this journey without the village that once surrounded them? I created Dhatri to help families navigate pregnancy and birth with both evidence-based knowledge and compassionate support. My approach blends research-backed education with calm, grounded support. Some families want deep dives into research, medical evidence, and decision-making tools. Others want reassurance, emotional support, and someone who helps them slow down and reconnect with their intuition. Most families need both. I meet you where you are. My role is not to make decisions for you, but to provide you with evidence-based information, continuous support, and advocacy so you can make the choices that are right for your family. I support all birth choices - hospital, birth center, or home birth; medicated or unmedicated; vaginal or cesarean. What matters most is that you feel informed, supported, and empowered throughout your journey.

As your postpartum doula, I will support you and your family in the ways that feel best for you. You, your baby, and your family are always at the center of my care.

As a mom of two young ones, one being autistic, I know the difficulty of being a parent with unique challenges. Each of us have them. I'm a believer in post partum parents being prioritized by a caretaker. Need a shower? I'll hold the colicky baby. Rest? I'll cuddle your babe. Food? Do you like cookies? I'm here for you. I will certainly love your child as my own, but you need someone looking out for you too. I'll be that gal.

The support we need during birth and early parenting is intimate, it is unique to each person experiencing it. It is a vulnerable time, one in which we are forced to expose the most raw and real version of ourselves. We need personalized care that addresses our physical, and emotional needs. We need an expert who is committed to our process and our transition through it.
