Britanee is a great mix of professional and personable. When she met us at my home she brought things for my daughter to play with and was able to joke around with my husband, who is a person that usually takes some warming up to. Britanee was great support during my VBAC, was prepared with all her tools, and jumped in when I couldn't say what I needed. She helped me keep my wishes when doctors wanted something different and helped me accomplish my goal. She was a great teammate to have through my pregnancy and labor.

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 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 am a mom to 6 children. For over 9 years I’ve dedicated to being a stay at home parent. Being a doula has been my biggest dream once I became a mom to my first child. I knew my time would come that I am able to pursue my passion. That time has arrived and I’ve never been more grateful that I get to provide support during the most important day of your life. I hope to connect with you on your journey with care and kindness. You deserve to be treated with respect and have someone in your corner through this transformative time in your life. I look forward to being that person for you.

Hi there! I’m Stephanie, a birth doula based in Salem, and I’m so excited to support you and your family through this transformative journey. Before stepping into birth work, I spent 11 years as a teacher, working with students from diverse backgrounds. That experience shaped my deep belief in meeting people where they are, adapting my approach to their individual needs, and honoring their personal goals. Birth is not one-size-fits-all, and you deserve support that respects your choices, values, and instincts. Whether you're navigating pregnancy, preparing for birth, or adjusting to life with a new little one, I’m here to provide compassionate care every step of the way. I believe that knowledge is power—especially when it comes to birth. My approach is rooted in evidence-based care, giving you the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions while leaving space for what feels right for you. Whether you’re planning a hospital birth, birth center experience, or home birth—with or without medication—I trust you to make the best choices for your body, your pregnancy, and your baby. My role is to provide guidance, reassurance, and continuous support so you can navigate this journey feeling empowered and prepared. I also understand that birth doesn’t happen in a vacuum—it’s an experience that impacts your partner, family, and birth team. That’s why I provide comprehensive support to your entire circle, making sure everyone feels informed, involved, and empowered. Birth isn’t just about the baby—it’s about you, your well-being, and the experience you want to create. Inclusivity and respect are at the heart of my practice. I’m passionate about de-stigmatizing mental health and emotional well-being, and I firmly believe that every family deserves the support they need—whether that’s through professional help, community resources, or simply having someone to lean on. I am committed to being an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and advocating for anti-racist practices in all aspects of my work. Your family is unique, and I’m here to support you in a way that feels right for you. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll probably find me curled up with a romance or fantasy novel, getting lost in a new crafting project, or tending to my ever-growing collection of plants (and trying to give away new starts I’ve rooted on my windowsill). I also love experimenting with vegetarian and vegan recipes, going on long walks, and enjoying imaginative games with my husband and two kids. No matter how your birth unfolds, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and fully supported. Whether you're loving every moment of pregnancy or just trying to survive it, you don’t have to do it alone. I’d love to walk alongside you on this journey!

As a doula, clinical herbalist, and massage therapist, I walk alongside mothers with a presence that is both gentle and deeply grounded. I believe that healing thrives in environments of trust, tenderness, and nourishment, and I cultivate that space for every family I serve. The fourth trimester is a sacred window of transformation, and my role is to help you move through it with steadiness, warmth, and compassionate support. My philosophy is rooted in honoring your intuition and the ancient wisdom of the body. I offer a holistic blend of postpartum care, therapeutic touch, and plant-based remedies to help soothe the nervous system, reduce tension, and support your full-body healing. Whether preparing nourishing meals, providing bodywork, or simply holding space for your emotions, my intention is always the same: to help you feel seen, supported, and deeply resourced as you settle into life with your baby.

Jennifer was absolutely amazing! I cannot recommend her enough. She is an incredible chef, a knowledgeable herbalist, a skilled masseuse, and truly one of the kindest souls I’ve ever met. We feel so blessed to have found her and for everything she has brought into our lives. As a postpartum doula, she was unbelievably supportive. She helped with the baby, cooked nourishing meals for me, and did light household chores—relieving so much pressure during those early weeks. She meal-prepped any recipe I requested and offered thoughtful suggestions based on where I was in my postpartum journey.  Her herbal remedies were also a game changer. She created custom teas to support when I had low iron and low vitamin D, as well as one one to help with UTIs. Her tinctures are some of the best I’ve ever tasted—smooth rather than harsh. I especially loved the schisandra berry elixir, the lion’s mane elixir, and the cacao reishi elixir. I also used her seasonal oxymel for allergies. Her skincare products are equally amazing; her womb-warming oil and belly balm tallow both smelled incredible and made me feel so cared for. On top of all that, she is a fantastic masseuse. She even taught me a few massage techniques to help break down scar tissue from my emergency cesarean.If you’re looking for a kind, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated doula, Jennifer is your lady!

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. 😊

I’m a 24-year-old mom of two spirited girls! When I'm off the clock I love to stay at home with my family and play video games or watch tv with them. My home is always full of epic battles and giggles. Right now the girls fav tv is bluey and k-pop demon hunters. My partner and I love anima. There are way too many great options to pick just one of my favorites! I love to cook for my family. We try to eat new things and expand our menu on a regular basis. I also love to bake bread. My girls and I spend a lot of time doing plant chores together. I mainly plant house plants nowadays but I have had a garden a few times. My oldest has spent too many hours with me doing gardening. When she was little she would sneak past me and eat handfuls of tomatoes and peas almost every day. To this day when they go see their grandma they both try to sneak tomatoes from her garden. We have 2 very different cats. The youngest one is a spastastic and the older one is a calm darkness that doesn't like coming out very often. The youngest one is named Calypso, the girls picked it from the teacher in bluey, The oldest one is named Artemis. When I'm not home I'm an outdoor enthusiast, finding peace near any water source- be it waterfalls, oceans, or rivers. I absolutely love going on hikes even though sometimes my body doesn't. When I start to feel my disability show I just reroute myself to take it slow and steady to get to my goal. Why did I become a Doula? Well when I was younger my family would tell me all the time that I have a kind and caring demeanor., They would tell me stories of how when I was way younger I would watch tv about moms having babies and I never looked away. Honestly when I was presented with the opportunity to become a birthing doula I got so excited. It was something I dreamed about but never thought I would be able to do. I always thought I'd be a labor and delivery nurse or something like it and this was it. I think it's such a beautiful thing having people there to support you when you need it the most. With both my girls I didn't have support and I wish I would have known about doulas. While the nurses were amazing my family had no idea what to do and how to support me. I wish they had that little nudge to help them as well. When I was offered a chance to attend to someone I loves birth, I got to see how the room looks outside of my laboring eyes and I finally understood why my family was lost and confused about how to best support the laboring person . So I've studied and found a community to show me how to help others on the birthing journey. I've attended a birthing doula class and have joined the Doula Love mentor ship to get that continuous support. With that I've decided I want to help others who are new parents, seasons pros, single superheroes and the lgbtq community. This doula adventure has introduced me to a wonderful community and taught me heaps about the miracle of birth. My mission? To make sure you feel heard, seen, and supported, so you can have the birth experience you desire. Everyone deserves that extra sprinkle of support magic!

Hello! Supporting families through the birth year as a birth and postpartum doula brings me immense joy. As a dear friend of mine said, "Helping people move through huge life transitions is where it's at." I bring non-judgmental, compassionate, inclusive, evidence-based care to you and your family, however "family" looks for you. My training includes DONA-approved workshops for birth and postpartum doulas, lactation support, newborn care, pregnancy loss, abortion support, and prenatal/postpartum yoga. When not involved in birth work, I love to bake, play with my puppy, and read mysteries.

We are so grateful for Zoe’s loving support this past year as our doula. Zoe worked with us as a postpartum doula after our son Emmett was born. Her support was intuitive and natural, easily fitting in to our lives and jumping in to support in all the right ways. She was incredibly helpful both in practical ways helping us get back on track with our daily routine, but also was a wealth of information about breastfeeding, newborn phases and milestones, and labor recovery. Zoe shared helpful resources related to where we were at in the postpartum and newborn journey. She also made space to help us process and talk about things like our birth story, postpartum anxiety, and really anything else on our minds… which was a lot. We appreciate the calm and loving connection and support for our whole family.
