We've had Candace with us on two birthing journeys and she is fantastic. She's incredibly knowledgeable and spent all the time we needed to feel ready for birth. We highly recommend her as your doula, whether your medical care team is wonderful (we love ours!) or if it needs supplementing. Our first experience with her was with our first baby. At that point, we had no idea what to expect and, honestly, I was scared about the pain of childbirth. Candace provided a series of classes for my husband and I. It really put me at ease and gave me confidence in my body's (and mind's) ability to have a very healthy, positive, and natural birth. She gave practical tips for nutrition (backed with science and different studies!), readying my body physically, partnering advice so my husband and I could be an effective team, how to prepare a birth plan, how to advocate for yourself during labor, and so much more. Because of the preparation Candace was able to guide us through, I've been able to have two incredibly successful, non-medicated, non-tearing, births. (Our first-born was 8lbs 13oz, and our second was 9lbs 2oz!) Not only is Candace available during our pregnancy journey and birth, she was also able to assist us postpartum as our lactation consultant, how to continue taking care of my recovering body, and checking in on our babies. Even when we had a miscarriage, she was able to provide lots of insight and encouragement during the entire process. She has lots of experience with different cultural backgrounds which was a plus for us —we're a biracial couple— and was also very supportive of our faith practice. She was accessible, flexible (Zoom or in-person), generous... We can't say enough good things! She will definitely be our go-to doula if we decide to have a third ;)

Peace starts at birth — and every parent deserves to feel supported, informed, and deeply cared for throughout their journey into parenthood. Hi, I’m Trinity, a birth and postpartum doula passionate about supporting growing families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, and the emotional transitions that come with becoming a parent. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby, navigating postpartum emotions, struggling with breastfeeding or pumping, adjusting to sleepless nights, or learning how to care for yourself while caring for a newborn, you do not have to go through it alone. I offer a calm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for parents — especially mothers who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or unsure in their new role. My goal is to help you feel grounded, empowered, and supported every step of the way. I have experience supporting both medicated and unmedicated births and offer personalized support tailored to your unique goals and needs. For families interested in a natural, low-intervention birth experience, I also offer hypnobirthing guidance, breathing techniques, visualization exercises, and guided meditations to help prepare your mind and body for birth in a peaceful and intentional way. Some of the ways I can support you include: • Birth planning and emotional preparation • Postpartum emotional support and adjustment • Breastfeeding and pumping support • Sleep and newborn routine guidance • Introducing older siblings to a new baby • Couples transitioning into parenthood together • Guided meditation and breathing sessions • Postpartum recovery and gentle core-strengthening support • Healthy meal prep and nurturing household support • Creating calming environments for birth and postpartum recovery • Ongoing encouragement, education, and compassionate care I believe every birth journey deserves gentleness, respect, and support — no matter what path your birth takes. I currently offer a free 15-minute consultation call so we can connect, discuss your needs, and see if we’re a good fit. After that, support sessions are available for $30 per 45-minute session. If you’re looking for someone to walk beside you during this transformative chapter with warmth, patience, and genuine care, I would be honoured to support you. DM me now to book your free consultation call 💛

Hi, I’m Syllona. I’m a birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, hypnobirthing instructor, and maternal health researcher — centering well-being, equity, and accessibility in all that I do. My approach is trauma-informed and person-centered, drawing on my background in social work and over seven years of experience supporting people through major life transitions. I believe every birthing person and family deserves to feel confident, informed, respected, and empowered throughout their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. When we work together, you’ll receive compassionate, evidence-based support tailored to your needs. I will support you in everything from navigating the medical system to preparing emotionally and physically for birth. My goal is to ensure you feel safe, heard, and deeply supported every step of the way. I have specialized training in supporting birthing people with a history of trauma — including previous birth trauma, sexual or physical violence, or experiences of systemic barriers in care. Together, we’ll hold space for your story and move forward in a way that honours your strength, autonomy, and healing.

Syllona’s warm, patient demeanour was just what we needed as first-time parents. We felt safe, heard, and supported throughout our time with her. She shared plenty of resources with us and was generous with her knowledge and time, providing support tailored to our needs. During labour she jumped in proactively with pain management techniques and provided tangible guidance when considering different medical interventions. Our baby also loved her gentle approach during the postpartum visit. Overall, working with Syllona was so worth it and we look forward to keeping in touch!

I believe birth is not just a medical event — it’s a deeply personal, transformative experience, and the way you are supported matters. As a birth doula, my role is to provide steady, evidence-based support while centering you: your preferences, your intuition, and your sense of safety. I support families through pregnancy, labor, birth, and the early postpartum period with calm presence, clear information, and compassionate advocacy. Whether your birth unfolds exactly as planned or takes unexpected turns, you deserve to feel informed, respected, and supported every step of the way. I work with all birth settings and outcomes — hospital births, unmedicated or medicated labors, planned or unplanned cesareans — and I meet each family where they are, without judgment. My approach is grounded in current evidence, emotional attunement, and the understanding that there is no “right” way to give birth — only what is right for you. Clients often tell me they feel more confident, less overwhelmed, and better prepared after working together. I aim to be a steady presence you can lean on — someone who helps you understand your options, supports your partner, and creates space for you to stay connected to your body and your baby. If you’re looking for a doula who is calm, knowledgeable, and deeply invested in your experience — I would be honored to support you.

From the moment I decided to choose Olena, I have never regretted it. From the very beginning, Olena was incredibly attentive and supportive. Her two prenatal visits were incredibly helpful. She clearly explained what to expect during labor and helped me prepare for the upcoming challenges both mentally and physically. She demonstrated valuable pelvic floor exercises that gave me confidence and preparedness for my future labor. Throughout my entire labor, she was very responsive to my needs and ensured that my wishes and comfort were a priority. She worked closely and communicated effectively with the nurses and midwife, and her support was especially crucial when the question of a C-section arose. She confidently advocated for my preferences and helped my voice be heard. When the decision was finally made for a C-section, her support never wavered. Both my husband and I felt reassured by her steady presence in the operating room. One of the most meaningful moments for me came right after the birth of my son, when my husband needed to be with him and all the doctors were busy. I cannot forget the comfort of her hands on my face while I was getting stitches. It was exactly what I needed to feel safe and cared for. After the labor, she continued to provide me with comprehensive support. She taught me how to sit and breastfeed correctly, guided me through every step, and frequently checked in to make sure I was doing well. I truly valued her knowledge and genuine care, and she went above and beyond, sharing an incredibly helpful list of tips for newborn care, postpartum recovery, and breastfeeding. Having Olena as our doula has been incredibly beneficial for both me and my husband. Her experience and unwavering support truly helped us through every step of this life-changing moment, and if my husband and I decide to have a second child, I know who I will choose as my doula.

Neha Chinchanikar

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.

Neha was a great birth doula. I wouldn't have been able to labor at home without her. She used many methods to help me cope with my pain. She was there from when I just had some cramps. When I texted her my symptoms, she quickly arrived at our home, helped time the contractions, poured ice over my body to distract me from the pain, used essential oils, and help me use the TENS machine. She helped my partner support me by suggesting position changes, feeding, and watering me. She gave me a list of aftercare items that have been very important for my recovery. All I desired for my birth was a quick labor and vaginal delivery, and Neha was essential in making that possible. I am very thankful to her, I wish everyone had someone like Neha to support them during their births.

I am Rafaela, a Certified Postpartum Doula through NAPS and a graduate of DONA International–approved Postpartum Doula training. I am also a Birth Doula trained through the Becoming a Birth Doula program with Carrie Kenner and a Newborn Care Provider. I am based in Kirkland, Washington, and provide compassionate, respectful, and hands-on support to families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, helping parents feel confident and supported during one of the most meaningful transitions in their lives. I hold a Technical Degree in Nursing from Brazil, earned in 2010, with more than 2,090 hours of combined theoretical and clinical training. While this is not a U.S. nursing license, it provides a strong clinical foundation for the care and support I offer families. Throughout my professional career, I have gained extensive experience in maternal and newborn care, including supporting pregnant women, newborns, premature infants, and babies requiring specialized care. I bring seven years of hands-on experience working in a maternity hospital in Brazil, where I supported mothers during labor and provided direct care for newborns, including premature infants and babies in the NICU. This experience has given me extensive knowledge in supporting families with newborns who require specialized care. I offer both daytime and overnight support for newborns, premature infants, and their families during the postpartum period. My services include evidence-based newborn care, emotional support for parents, infant feeding guidance, healthy sleep foundations, and practical assistance to help families feel confident and well supported as they adjust to life with a new baby. Families often describe me as reliable, calm, and attentive. I strive to create a warm, organized, and judgment-free environment where families feel supported and confident in their routines while following current American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommendations for safe sleep and newborn care. I am fully vaccinated, have excellent references, a clean driving record, and reliable transportation.

More recently, Rafaela reached out to let us know she became a doula and asked if we would feel ok sharing our experience. I didn’t even think twice. About five years ago when our son was born, we went through a really hard time as a family. My wife had postpartum depression and I was honestly very scared I wouldn’t be able to handle everything on my own. About a week after the baby was born, we realized we needed help, and that’s when we met Rafaela. At that time, she was already helping families with newborn care because of her nursing background, so she had a lot of experience even before becoming a doula. She helped us during the day and also overnight, and gave support to my wife during a very sensitive time. What really stands out is how genuine she is. She cared for our baby with so much love and patience, you could really feel it. Because of my wife’s situation, we used formula, and Rafaela helped us with that with no judgment, just support. She really became part of our family. She was there through everything, even came to our son’s first birthday. Even now, we still keep in touch and always recommend her to friends and families in our Bellevue community. We are very thankful for everything she did for us.
