Find a Midwife or Home Birth Midwife Near Me in Oregon

Hi there! My name is Emani, and I’m excited you came across my profile!✨ I am a recent graduate from the naturopathic medical school here in Portland, NUNM, with my doctorate in naturopathic medicine and certificate in natural childbirth. During my schooling, I had the privilege of attending over 10 births assisting local naturopathic midwives. I have completed my training with Doula School International where we learned effective positions for labor, soothing techniques to manage pain, as well as the intersectionality of birth and how to assist clients who may be struggling with their mental health in a trauma-informed way. As I am completing my doula certification, I am offering discounted doula services in exchange for an evaluation from you. These services include 2 prenatal visits, support during labor and delivery, and 1 postpartum visit. I look forward to supporting you during this momentous time! ✨

Birth is a beautiful time for support and connection, and the loving care you receive from your support team is a transformative way to begin the new phase of life that your baby is starting! I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula serving the Corvallis area. I also have my Traditional Healthcare Worker certification and am a member of the Community Doula Program and will be able to bill Medicaid by the end of March. I am nonbinary and welcome trans and gender non-conforming clients and families. I have two young children and have lived experience with prematurity, NICU stays, and pregnancy loss. I have experienced several different birthing situations. Additionally I have personal experience and experience working as a doula for several infants who struggle to feed and gain weight. ​ I grew up in Corvallis and feel deeply connected to the community here. I worked in early childhood education for several years after graduating from UO while also moving around the country, enjoying spending time in both San Francisco, CA and Austin, TX. Both of those cities also allowed me to pursue modern dance which I’ve enjoyed since I was a child! Dancing, yoga, and movement are a huge part of who I am and there’s a deep connect for me between movement and birth work. I find joy, peace, and belonging in movement, building community and sharing the things I love with my children.

Hello, friend! My name is Josie and I have been a Birth Doula since 2019. My goal as your Doula is to help you have the most satisfying birth experience possible by supporting you physically, emotionally, and educationally. As your Doula I will help you advocate for yourself so that you feel both seen and heard by the medical staff, I will help support you physically as you progress in labor, and I will be there as an encouragement and champion for you and your partner throughout your journey. I love pampering women in labor, but I'm also there to be a Doula to the partner/spouse because we all know it's a team effort. My goal is never to replace your labor support, but rather add to, direct, and encourage them. I love to craft, make jokes, cuddle my toddler when he lets me, read books, and wander throughout Oregon’s woods and coastlines. I’m an introvert and an enneagram 9, but I can be loud and fun, so don’t go confusing shy for quiet. 😉 I can’t wait to meet you!

Dear Mother, Congratulations on the new life growing within you! Pregnancy, birth, and motherhood are sacred journeys, and I honor the beauty of this season in your life. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, and so is your baby. I am praying for you—for peace in your heart, strength in your body, and wisdom as you prepare for this incredible transition. Know that you are not alone, and that God is with you every step of the way. Hi, I’m Stephani, and I am honored to walk alongside families as they navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As a Christian doula, I can provide a strong foundation of prayer and biblical affirmations to help you find peace in the unknowns of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Whether it’s through prayer, worship music, Christian hypnobirthing, or Bible-based affirmations, I will support you in creating a birth experience that reflects your faith and values. "I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers." – Ephesians 1:16 (ESV)

Hello, I’m currently working toward completing my doula certification, and I’m looking for birthing parents who would be willing to have me support them as one of my first solo clients. I’m just two births away from completing my certification, and I would be incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be invited into such an intimate and meaningful part of someone’s life. I believe every birthing person deserves to feel heard, respected, informed, safe, and supported. The birthing parent deserves to have a voice in their birth, to ask questions, to change your mind, to be vulnerable, to advocate for yourself, and ultimately to have autonomy over your own body and your own experience. My role isn’t to tell you how to birth. It’s to stand beside you, listen to you, remind you of your strength, help you feel supported in your choices, and be there when things feel overwhelming. I want to be the person in your corner who can say, “You’re not alone. I’m right here.” I serve the Portland/ Vancouver Metro area and am currently available to support families with due dates in October, January and beyond. I know that being a newer doula means I’m still learning, growing, and finding my way — but what I can promise is that I will show up with my whole heart. I will listen. I will learn. I will respect you. And I will care deeply about the experience you have. With Kindness, Katie

Hi, I’m Marley— a birth doula based in the Portland area. Babies and children have always been a passion of mine, before becoming a Doula my background was in childcare for more than 9 years.

My goal is to make you feel seen, valued, and respected while going through this huge transformative journey.

Hi, I’m Chantel—a birth doula, mama of two little ones, and someone who truly believes this season of life deserves to be held with care, humor, and a whole lot of heart. When I’m not supporting families, you can usually find me chasing my babies around, dancing in the kitchen, getting outside in nature, or dreaming up creative projects. I have a background in yoga and movement, which deeply shapes how I support birth—tuning into the body, finding rhythm, and creating a sense of calm and connection in the midst of it all. I came into this work because I’m passionate about helping families feel supported, seen, and confident as they step into parenthood. Birth is powerful and unpredictable, and I’m here to be a steady, grounding presence through it—offering hands-on support, encouragement, and guidance while honoring your unique path. My hope is that you feel safe to be fully yourself in this experience, and that you walk away feeling not just supported, but truly cared for.

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 am deeply committed to advocacy, ensuring my clients feel heard, respected, and informed every step of the way.

Hello, I’m Stormy McKinney, a birth doula serving families in Oregon. Supporting birthing people is more than a career for me—it’s a calling shaped by my own experiences, my heart for caregiving, and my deep belief that no one should ever feel alone during birth. My journey into birth work began after having two difficult birth experiences of my own. I didn’t have the support I needed, and I carried that feeling of being unheard and overwhelmed for a long time. Later, I spent years caring for my grandmother, and although I loved being there for her, after she passed I knew I wanted to help people in a different way. When I discovered what doulas do, something clicked. I realized I wanted to be the person I never had—someone who advocates, comforts, and helps birthing people relax into their own strength. I completed my Birth Doula and Postpartum care Training with Doula Love LLC in Portland, OR continued my education with additional training in trauma-informed care, oral health, cultural competency, CPR for adults/children/infants (for nurses), and basic lactation support. My approach is grounded in compassion, kindness, and a genuine desire to help families feel safe, informed, and supported. I’m a little shy at first, but I warm up quickly. I have ADHD, so every now and then I get a burst of energy—usually in a fun, optimistic way. I’m also disabled and live with POTS, but it doesn’t stop me from showing up fully for the families I support. I’m a young doula at 25, a mom of two, an animal lover, I love waterfalls, and a bit of a video-game nerd, Anima is a big part of my time. All of these pieces of me shape the warmth and understanding I bring into my work. I believe birth should feel supported, respected, and never lonely. I would be honored to walk beside you as you welcome your baby into the world.

My name is Aly, and I'm a registered nurse and Board Certified Lactation ​Consultant. I feel strongly about helping new parents navigate the ​challenges of feeding their baby with confidence, education, and joy. I ​want to help you achieve your feeding goals in a way that works for ​YOU! My journey began as a birth photographer and continued as I became a ​labor and delivery nurse. Through my own struggles with breastfeeding, ​I found my passion in lactation consulting. My love for breastfeeding and ​birth work grew from there; I became a Certified Lactation Counselor ​(CLC) and then furthering my education and experience, became an ​Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). When I'm not supporting new parents with feeding their babies, I enjoy ​playing with my two kids, Nixon and Roman and spending time with my ​husband, Ryan, and our family. Whether it's traveling or camping, ​tending to my garden, or gaining knowledge about homesteading on ​my Grandparents' farm, I always find ways to make the most of my time ​with my family.

Hi! I live in Springfield Oregon and I’m a mom of 4 and grandma of 2. I completed my doula and postpartum training in April 2024 through SMC Doulas in Portland and it was a wonderful experience! I was a 20 year old single mom when I had my oldest daughter and I birthed alone, just myself, the nurse and my dr and it was an experience that I never wanted to repeat or have anyone I knew have. I will support you, advocate with you for your needs and desires and be there as little or as much as you need. I will also be there for you postpartum holding your baby so you can shower, washing laundry, doing dishes, making meals, you tell me what you need and I can accommodate you. I can meet with you virtually over zoom or in person. My goal is to keep my doula business small and basically be on call when you need me taking only a couple clients at a time. If you wake up at 3am and need to talk I can accommodate that. Being pregnant, giving birth, having a newborn and being a brand new parent all can be anxiety producing and at the same the happiest times of your life! I understand that completely!!

I support families in all birth settings: home, hospital, birth center, and telehealth. I believe in providing evidence based information so that you can make the decision that is best for your family and your birthing experience while supporting you with physical and emotional support. I believe in you!

Hello! My name is Kaitlin and I live in Corvallis, OR with my husband and three kids. I am a certified Birth Doula, a THW with the state of Oregon and have extra training to support VBAC birth.

Hello everyone, my name is Jennifer and I am a birth doula and Childbirth educator. I am also a bodywork specialist who does energy work. I am trained in Reiki and reflexology and while I was in massage school I took classes in pregnancy massage and labor massage. As a birth worker my passion is to help in the bonding of the family no matter what your family looks like if it is just mother and baby, partner, spouse, or even a family member I am there to help you find your voice and ease your journey as it plays out. Sometimes we want to think we can control what our birth will look like but the little bundle inside doesn't always listen and so I want to be there to help everyone involved reach the goal. My main passion is in continuous care. I left the nursing world after seeing the effects it had on laboring women and families having to build that rapport with the care team each appointment, shift changes and I did not like that. I want to be there with your family from start to finish, one less thing to worry about and one more thing to gain comfort in.
