Hi, I’m Amyah, a certified doula, Traditional Health Worker (THW C), and passionate advocate for maternal wellness. With a background in preclinical sciences and public health, I bring both evidence-based care and deep emotional support to the families I serve. As a mother myself, I understand the beauty and intensity of the motherhood journey and approach every client with compassion, education, and respect. Through my doula services, I offer personalized postpartum support, birth preparation guidance, and holistic care that centers your emotional, physical, and mental well-being. My mission is to help you feel seen, heard, and held through every stage of your transition, whether it’s your first baby or your fourth. You don’t have to do this alone, and with the right support, you don’t have to just survive—you can truly thrive.

For the past three years, I have had the honor of serving as a birth doula, supporting families as they prepare for one of the most transformative moments of their lives. My mission is to help families explore and voice their preferences, feel empowered in their decisions, and prepare both emotionally and physically for birth. I provide active, continuous support during labor, offering reassurance, comfort measures, and steady guidance throughout the entire process. I am deeply committed to advocacy, ensuring my clients feel heard, respected, and informed every step of the way. I help create a safe and nurturing space where each family can confidently welcome their beautiful bundle of joy. My work extends into the postpartum period, where I continue to provide guidance, encouragement, and compassionate care as families adjust to their new chapter.

Hello, my name is Alyx Cucci and I am a certified birthworker living in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I have personally experienced a hospital birth, a birth center birth as well as a home birth and although they were all exceptionally different I loved each of them equally. As a birthworker I am a firm believer in the magic that is created by a birthing person and their partner during the entirety of the birth process. I am always grateful to be chosen as a witness to these extraordinary experiences and my ultimate hope is that I am more of a witness than anything else. I work hard to educate and empower a couple before the arrival of their baby so when the time comes, they are able to confidently and comfortably take control of their birth with me their merely as an extra set of hands when needed or sometimes to simply hold space. I also believe that there is a birthworker for everyone. We are not one size fits all and neither are you. And….THATS OKAY. I love chatting with potential clients and seeing if we are a match. Most often we are, and sometimes we are not. Childbirth can make women feel vulnerable and unsure. They need somebody they can completely trust and open up to. Somebody they can feel vulnerable and unsure with. And let’s be honest, sometimes we just done jive with others. I want potential clients to understand that I am just one type of doula. I am open and honest and blunt. I believe in this magic down in the deepest parts of my soul. I am knowledgeable and empowering; I care genuinely for each of my clients but I am not the fit for every woman. Thankfully, if I am not, there is another who is. And I want you to have that birthworker attend your birth and stand witness to your miracle. Lets chat, no hard feelings. 😊

Welcoming a newborn(s) or infant(s) into the family is an incredibly special time, but it can also be exhausting for parents. I’d love to support a new family by offering compassionate, dependable nighttime care. With over ten years of experience in pediatrics, I’ve cared for babies and children in hospital settings, but after having three of my own, I took a step back to focus on my family. I truly miss caring for babies and am excited to transition into a role as a night nanny. I understand the value of rest, and I’d be honored to help parents get the sleep they need. I'm attentive, nurturing, and experienced in caring for babies. Whether it’s offering guidance or simply providing a peaceful, restful night, I’m here to help!

Hello families! My name is Becca, 45 years old, and I was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. I am very calm, loving, patient, responsible, and flexible.. Being a birth and postpartum doula is my passion and I find much happiness in this type of work! I have 20+years experience working as a nanny and early childhood education teacher. My education includes Postpartum and Birth Doula training in 2024 and a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education in 2003. I’m also a mother to a wonderful and brilliant twelve year old girl Amelia. I am very active and love the outdoors, hot yoga, healthy cooking/baking and being around animals. I prefer to work in the SW Portland/Tigard/Beaverton/ area but I’m able to travel to accommodate your needs.

Hey! I'm Charise 🙂 Your local Lebanon, OR doula. I started my doula journey after hearing a lot of birth stories where mom's weren't informed, supported or listened to. Because I had my own experience with birth doulas, OBs and midwives, I knew this didn't have to be the norm for every woman. So last year, I launched Charise Blodgett Doula Care. My goal as your birth doula is to help you go into labor and delivery feeling knowledgeable and informed. I want you to feel confident in making decisions for you and your baby(ies). As you postpartum doula, I want you to feel comfortable providing care for your baby(ies) and have the physical, mental and emotional support you need as you transition into motherhood.

Affirming doula care for queer & neurodivergent folks No assumptions. No judgment. A safe space for all. Nurturing Every Birth, Honoring Every Story

Now Booking for summer 2026! I believe everyone deserves a village. I also know that asking for help, especially during the transition to parenthood, is one of the bravest and most vulnerable things a person can do. My role as a postpartum doula is to come alongside families during this tender season, helping them identify their unique needs and supporting them as they grow into their new roles. One of the greatest gifts I can offer is helping families feel more rested, confident, and resourced. I approach each family with care and curiosity, always honoring their culture, beliefs, values, hopes, and goals. By centering your family’s identity, I can help support a home that truly reflects who you are. I have experience working with a wide range of families and circumstances, including addiction recovery, infants with special needs, and sleep support. No two families are the same, and I believe deeply that what works beautifully for one family may not work at all for another. As a postpartum doula, my primary goal is to meet families exactly where they are. By getting to know you and your needs, I can offer thoughtful, individualized support that helps establish a balanced and nurturing home. I try to be a non-judgmental, compassionate presence and someone who accepts you as you are and supports you as you become the parents you hope to be. I aim to be your biggest cheerleader, offering reassurance, practical help, and guidance along the way. At this time, I provide overnight postpartum care exclusively. ⸻ About Me As a mother to a vivacious pre-teen, I’ve experienced both the profound joys and the very real challenges of motherhood. While my kiddo and I are happy and healthy today, our early years were marked by unexpected hospital stays, long periods of solo parenting, and eventually the work of building a successful co-parenting relationship. These experiences shaped me deeply and ignited my passion for supporting families navigating recovery, mental health challenges, past trauma, limited support systems, and complex family dynamics. When I gave birth in 2013, I had no idea postpartum doula support even existed. I believed new parents were simply supposed to figure it out on their own, and if they struggled, it meant they were failing. I now know how UNTRUE and harmful that belief can be. My mission is to ensure families know that support is available, and that they were never meant to do this alone. Before becoming a postpartum doula, I spent more than 20 years working as a nanny and childcare provider and earned an associate degree in pre-education. Four years ago, a friend introduced me to postpartum doula work, a role I had never heard of, but instantly knew was meant for me. Within weeks, I began my training, and I’ve never looked back. I wake up every day feeling grateful to do work that is meaningful, supportive, and deeply aligned with who I am. As a lifelong night owl who spent years trying to fit into a morning-person world, I’ve finally found my calling providing overnight postpartum care during my natural “prime time” hours. Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, I’ve been happily married to my best friend and biggest cheerleader for over three years. Together, we’ve blended our family with my kiddo and his son. Now that our children are older, we share a passion for travel, curiosity, and fully experiencing the world around us. After years of letting life pass by, I now make a conscious effort to savor experiences (big and small) as they come. My friends and family often joke about my boundless energy and zest for life, and together with my husband and kids, we are always embracing what comes next.

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!

Families are not meant to be built in isolation. After 10 years working in education and clinical spaces, I transitioned into the private sector to provide more direct support to individuals planning and starting their families. I focus on providing high quality, personalized family care services in home and virtually for those who prefer less invasive household support. I have a strong passion for empowering new parents/ expecting parents by co-creating efficient home systems for family wellness. I provide a combination of child care services, sleep coaching, household operations assistance and postpartum support. I am looking forward to supporting you as your family grows!

HEY NEW BESTIE, I'M KIM AND I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE. I am the owner and head doula for Birthing Days doula birth and postpartum services and education. I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and sleep consultant. My passion is helping families feel confident, supported, and cared for through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and life with a newborn. I believe that every family’s journey is unique, and my role is to walk alongside you with encouragement, evidence-based information, and nonjudgmental support. Whether I’m guiding you through labor, helping you adjust during those tender postpartum weeks, teaching you the tools for an empowered birth, or supporting your baby’s sleep journey, my goal is always the same: to nurture your confidence and help you feel calm, capable, and cared for. A little about me: I was born and raised in Oregon, and I truly love all four seasons—each one brings its own joy and beauty. I’ve been married to my best friend for 24 years, and together we’ve raised three amazing children who continue to inspire me every day. When I’m not working with families, you’ll probably find me reading a good book, getting in a workout, or spending time outdoors camping and traveling. Disneyland has a special place in my heart, and I love creating memories there with my family. On game days, you’ll almost always catch me cheering for my teams—I’m a huge Oregon Ducks and Notre Dame Irish fan! Why I do this work: Motherhood and family life have shown me just how powerful, challenging, and beautiful these seasons can be. I know firsthand how important it is to feel supported, respected, and empowered—and that’s what I want every family I work with to experience. If you’re looking for someone who will meet you with compassion, encouragement, and a personalized approach, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on this journey

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.

I know what it feels like to need steady support, clear information, and someone who can hold the room when things feel big. My work is rooted in consent, autonomy, and protecting the oxytocin bubble whether that looks like quiet presence, advocacy in medical spaces, or reminding you to breathe and come back into your body. I’m Portland Oregon based and offer sliding scale support because access to care matters.

Hello! My name is Angel McGinn and I have worked as a Registered Nurse for 15 years. I have worked in many different nursing specialties, but I absolutely love my current position as a Postpartum and Labor & Delivery nurse. I love being with families as they transition into parenthood and/or continue to grow their families. Becoming a doula has allowed me to focus not only on the medical side of birthing experiences, but also the emotional and spiritual side to a physiological birth. In my own birth and postpartum experiences, I struggled with breastfeeding, which prompted me obtain my CLC -lactation certification, so that I could be of assistance others in their chest/breastfeeding journey and I am currently working towards my IBCLC. I am married and this year will be our 15th wedding anniversary in September. We have three children together and my husband has two from a previous marriage that are now young adults. Our two boys are 12 and 4 and we have a sweet baby girl that lives in heaven. We also are animal lovers with a Siamese cat and a Collie dog! **Due to the fact that I work full time in nursing, I work very closely with a doula partner in order to provide continuous doula coverage for clients.
