The fullness of my life has been centered around children and maternal care and learning about herbs and how they support a natural lifestyle. I have been a childcare provider, prenatal to youth (special needs included for years past 18 years of age), for over 30 years. My decision to become a doula, and eventually to become a midwife, has been in the works throughout my life. I have been influenced by other doulas and midwives from the East and West Coast, with a predominance of this influence happening when I was in North Carolina. My mission is to ensure that mothers, and mothers-to-be have the resources, knowledge, and care needed to ensure the healthy births of their children, as well as knowledge of how to care for their newborns and older children. I have experience as a nutritional specialist (chef), well-baby care, well-Mama care, and family care and pre-and post-birth dynamics.

I take a holistic approach to guiding you through your pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. I specialize in creating a gentle, ceremonial birth environment, no matter where the birth takes place. I have become “family” with each client I serve. My passion is to help all parents feel supported and informed through every decision. I truth a birther’s intuition and I honor the magic that lies in every single birth. Birth work is a heart calling to me. It has cracked my heart open again and again. I can’t wait to see what magic lies ahead on your journey!

As a holistic birth and postpartum doula, I offer grounded, intuitive support, empowering and nurturing new and growing families through the transformative portal of birth. My approach to care is informed by my deep studies of physiologic birth, herbalism and a decade working in childcare, the arts, journalism and food and retail. In our work together, we will be tuning to the cues from the body and centering nourishment, emotional wellbeing and connection to our natural rhythms. Together we'll take each moment as it arrives, looking to make the most out of all the tools available to help you move through each threshold in the way that is most true to your inner knowing. Rooted in the wisdom of Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine, the postpartum care I offer provides deep nourishment and helps to cultivate warmth, ease and restorative rest and connection. My hope is that this support helps to nourish families and communities so that we might reclaim the ceremony of birth in all of its forms and create a new collective future of autonomy, connection and wholeness. When not with families, you can find me likely making something with my hands, either in the garden, knitting, at home in my kitchen, or crafting some herbal concoction. I treasure my time spent near water, at the river, or on the coast in Northern California or my native New England.

Hi there! My name is Georgia I am a certified labor, postpartum, and abortion doula in the Portland area. I have a degree in Psychology and over 10 years of experience serving young children and families in a variety of settings. As your doula, I am committed to making you feel prepared, held, and empowered every step of the way. I recognize that this work is deeply personal and I strive to get to know my clients and care for them as I would a close friend. As a queer person living with chronic illness, I am particularly passionate about working with the LGBTQIA+ community, neurodivergent folks, and those living with disabilities. My work celebrates all bodies, identities, and family structures and I strive to make my practice as inclusive and accessible as possible.

For fourteen years, my life’s work has centered around caring for babies, young children, and growing families. That deep foundation in early childhood and family care naturally guided me to birth work, where I support families through one of life’s most transformative transitions. As a certified birth doula currently completing my postpartum doula training, my practice is rooted in a holistic, child and parent centered approach that honors the natural rhythm, wisdom, and intuition of the birth and postpartum experience. I believe in creating a calm, grounded, and sacred space where parents feel genuinely heard, nourished, and empowered. Integrating mindfulness, gentle presence, and practical holistic care, I offer steady, non-judgmental guidance as you navigate bringing new life into the world and settling into those tender early weeks. Whether we’re preparing for birth or settling into the quiet postpartum sanctuary, my heart is in helping your family feel peaceful, connected, and deeply supported.

Meet Tallina, a dedicated postpartum doula and childbirth educator. Growing up with six brothers and one sister, she mastered the art of caring for her siblings and is often hailed as the best big sister ever! Tallina lives in Portland with her two spouses and their three furry companions: Zuko, the playful landshark dog; Rory, the wise old cat; and Falcor, the curious kitty. In her free time, she enjoys reading, spending time with her family, and creating fun, funky art for her yard. After years of working with toddlers and families in daycare and outreach programs, Tallina discovered her passion for birth work. Following her training and certification, she went from being curious about birth to being utterly in love with the science and magic behind it. Her goal is to support clients in achieving their ideal birth experience. Tallina understands that childbirth can be challenging, so she works closely with your birth team. Her trauma-aware, family-focused approach aims to empower you with knowledge and resilience. She fosters an atmosphere of laughter and love in the birthing suite and at home. Tallina excels at helping parents navigate the early years of parenting, offering a listening ear and knowledgeable support. After all, parenting can be tough, and understanding your child’s needs isn’t always easy.

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

I’m Marquita, a Full Spectrum Birth & Postpartum Doula and founder of Root & Rose Wellness, serving families with compassionate, culturally responsive, and judgment-free care throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and major reproductive transitions. My approach blends evidence-informed education, practical hands-on support, advocacy, emotional care, and deep respect for each family’s individual choices. I support clients in preparing for birth, navigating hospital and healthcare systems, understanding their options, building confidence in their own decision-making, and creating a postpartum experience that prioritizes recovery—not just baby care. As a postpartum doula, I provide daytime and overnight support, newborn care, feeding and lactation support, maternal recovery assistance, meal and household support, education, and space for parents to rest and adjust to life with their new baby. I am also expanding my lactation expertise through advanced IBCLC pathway training. My full-spectrum practice includes birth and postpartum care, pregnancy loss and bereavement support, abortion support, Reiki, and connection to community resources when families need additional support. I have a particular commitment to improving the pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding experiences of Black families and other families who have historically experienced inequities in maternal healthcare. At the same time, my practice welcomes families of all backgrounds, identities, structures, and birth preferences. Whether you’re preparing for your first birth, welcoming another baby, recovering after delivery, navigating feeding, or simply realizing that you were never meant to do postpartum alone, my goal is to help you feel informed, supported, rested, and cared for. Root & Rose Wellness is more than birth support—it’s whole-family care during one of life’s biggest transitions.

Hello, my name is Brooke Jackson, and I am a mother of two beautiful children. I offer full-spectrum doula and postpartum care with compassion, grounded in advocacy and respect for each family’s unique journey. With over three years of experience supporting pregnant and parenting individuals, I provide knowledgeable, steady, and heart-centered care throughout the prenatal, birth, and postpartum periods. My background includes working in a hospital setting at OHSU, where I gained valuable insight into medical systems, collaborative care, and patient advocacy. I support families in creating thoughtful, flexible birth plans, offer evidence-based information to support informed decision-making, and provide practical, nurturing guidance in newborn care and postpartum recovery. I am open-minded, nonjudgmental, and deeply committed to honoring each family’s values, culture, and goals. I believe informed choice, continuous support, and compassionate care are the foundation of a positive and empowering birth and postpartum experience.

Hey, I’m Elliot. I’m a THW‑certified doula based in Portland, Oregon. I’ve always been drawn to supporting pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood, and I’m honored to walk alongside families during such a meaningful, transformative time. As a trans man, I also recognize how often queer people and their families are underrepresented and underserved in medical settings. My practice centers LGBT+ parents and is grounded in trauma‑informed, non‑judgmental care through a lens of reproductive justice—so birthing parents and their partners feel empowered to make informed decisions about their bodies and their care. I bring patience, calm, and genuine curiosity to every birth space. I’m a steady listener, an advocate when needed, and a gentle presence when quiet support is best. When I’m off‑call, you’ll find me making art, writing, cuddling my cats, or happily bumbling through a new videogame. If you’re seeking affirming support for your pregnancy and birth, I’d love to connect. I completed my initial training through Cornerstone Doula Trainings, and am fully THW certified through Mother Tree Birth. I've taken a cultural competency course -- including trauma informed care, interprofessional collaboration, and HIPAA training –, also through Mother Tree Birth; and I've also completed an Oral Health course and an adult/child CPR training course. I’m happy to provide documentation for all of the above, feel free to ask!
