Birth & Postpartum Doula

About me

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.

Service introduction

In a forest, no tree stands alone. They are connected by a hidden network of support, reaching out beneath the surface to hold one another steady. I hope to provide parents the same support to navigate the life-changing journey of birth and early parenthood. My goal is to ensure you feel supported and empowered, not just during birth, but as you begin your journey as a parent. I offer both birth and postpartum doula services, and I can support you in either one or both, based on your unique needs as a growing family and birthing parent.
