Hello! I'm a full spectrum Holistic doula, here to serve families of my communities.

As your doula, I am here to support your birth journey by helping you prepare for birth, feel empowered, & serve you in way that feels the most safe + authentic to you! As a person of color with a chronic illness, I know firsthand how difficult it is to feel heard and understood by the health care system. I come into this work with an evidence based approach and align myself with anti-racist, HAES (health at every size), gender affirming & trauma informed care.

I am a birth and postpartum doula committed to supporting you physically and emotionally during and surrounding your birth. I advocate for you, elevate and center your voice, educate, and provide local resources. My goal is to help you achieve a birth and postpartum experience that is satisfying for YOU. I believe in providing excellent care to everyone: LGBTQ+, BIPOC, non-traditional family structures, surrogacy, and so much more.

In every woman is a place where she knows how she wants to give birth. I want to be beside you to help you find that place. In past cultures, women circled around woman giving birth. I want to be in your circle of support. I want to uphold your strength as you become a mother, not only the first time, but every time. I'm Jennifer Unruh, a mother of 5 in her 40s. A wife to a small scale farmer. I love living on the Olympic Peninsula, farming vegetables and flowers! I love babies and birth, and the women who nurture that life. I believe support in pregnancy and birth, makes all the difference in how a mother feels on the other side of birth.

We always remember how our children came into the world and as a birth doula I wish to give you the confidence to decide what is right for you and your family, supporting you, emotionally and practically, to have a beautiful, empowered and positive birth experience. The arrival of a new baby is a time filled with so many emotions, from excitement and joy to worry and fear. The early weeks with your newborn are undoubtedly magical, but they can also be challenging and overwhelming. Your body has gone through an enormous change, and your hormones will be shifting as well, the dynamics of home life shift and new skills are learnt by all the family.  As your birth doula, my role is to offer you and your family the necessary support for a positive birthing experience.  I will give you the much-needed continuity of care, access to accurate information and to be a guide along your pregnancy and birthing journey. You can engage my support at any point in your pregnancy. 

Hi y'all! My name is Kaolin (Mi Cha) Cummins, and I am a multi-doula (certified birth doula, postpartum doula, multiracial, multilingual, 2-spirit, multi-momma, etc.) who primarily serves the Kitsap area, traveling up to 40mi. to the surrounding areas to provide care for QTBIPOC families. I am originally from South Carolina, and grew up all around the south, eventually moving to Kitsap due to the military. I've been here a while, but I'll always call the Carolinas my home. I am passionate about all things related to the cycle of life, from women's health to preconception, conception, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, life changes, and beyond. I've always had the calling to help others, and have been in caregiving(focused work with children with special needs and the elderly/disabled)/medical-related fields prior to becoming a doula. I realized after my second baby that my calling in life is to be a source of education, positivity, and support for new (and pro) parents through these changes, as one can never have or give too much support. I noticed the lack of QTBIPOC doulas in my area and realized that the lack of representation and access to providers that looked and lived like me was common everywhere, and that just won't do! Outside of being a doula, I am focused on pursuing a career as a CNM (Nurse Midwife) and am determined to mesh the Indigenous & Asian cultural practices I grew up with and the scientific and medicinal knowledge I am currently learning. I hope that in bridging both "worlds", we can foster person-focused care that will assist in creating fewer medical interventions in birth, and also provide exceptional care to parents who need medically necessary care but otherwise would not be able to attain it in other circumstances(i.e., low-income/wage disparity, inaccessibility to a provider of color, and LGBTQ+ conscious medical professionals, etc.). I believe access to information is one of the key players in having a successful birth/parental journey. I strive to create a judgment-free practice, to serve as a provider who assists in these beautiful changes in life. My goal is to leave the world better than I found it and to provide parents/caregivers with the informational and emotional support they need to get through life's events. You don't have to do it alone! Outside of doula work/becoming a midwife, I love spending time with my own little family, and doing anything creative/expressionist! I am a bit of an introvert, but you might catch me on the dance floor if the music's good!

I’m Maria, and I also go by Mayte. I am a birth and postpartum doula, Medical Assistant, mother, emotional-support practitioner, and founder of Luna Moon Doula. My experience in reproductive healthcare allows me to understand pregnancy and birth from inside the clinical environment. I know how quickly appointments can move, how overwhelming medical language can feel, and how easily a family’s emotional needs can disappear behind procedures, monitors, and decisions. For the past two years, I have also been pursuing the educational pathway toward becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I offer compassionate, evidence-informed breastfeeding and infant-feeding education—from preparing before birth to supporting positioning, latch, milk supply, pumping, and the early feeding ransitions. My approach bridges clinical knowledge with deeply personal, holistic care. Depending on what feels supportive to you, I may incorporate movement, breathing, emotional grounding, visualization, and the calming sound of singing bowls. I welcome every family and support unmedicated, medicated, induced, vaginal, and cesarean births with the same respect and care. Support is available in English and Spanish.

Hi, I’m Briseida Fredrickson, the heart behind Luz y Luna Doula Services. I’m a proud Latina, a mama, and a doula offering prenatal, birth, postpartum, and sibling support. I grew up in a Mexican family where caring for each other with food, love, and presence was just part of life. That’s the same energy I bring to my work. Before becoming a doula, I earned my Master’s degree in Education Technology, taught in the classroom, and spent years nannying, caring for children of all ages. Becoming a mother reminded me how much support families truly need. That’s why I’m here to offer comfort, guidance, and the steady, loving presence of a big sister or tía. Whether you’re preparing for birth, welcoming your baby, or helping older kiddos adjust, I’m here to walk with you every step of the way.
