A dedicated, capable, and broadly skilled Full Spectrum Doula. My skillset has flourished in the years I’ve spent in professional birth and postpartum care. Having supported over 300 families through pregnancy, labor and birth, and even hundreds more in postpartum, as well as a foundation of 20+ years of NCS experience, I am a seasoned Doula based here in metro Seattle / Tacoma. My competencies are built on the foundation of full-spectrum experience of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I walk hand in hand with families through first, second, and third births as well as the many in-between variations of the experience of growing family. It is important to me to practice with a calm and clear mind, helping to build your confidence and awareness early on, helping you assert your autonomy confidently to be in charge of your experience. At the heart of my work as your doula are the values of trust, honesty, reliability and non-judgmental support. There is no one right way to become a family. My role is to help you feel sure of what is right for you.

Nori was the whole reason my birth experience went as smoothly as it did. Not only did she prepare me and my husband for what would likely occur, but she prepped us beforehand with research behind the decisions that are made during these moments. This was so unbelievably smart and helpful to discuss beforehand, so we didn’t have to make any hard decisions during labor. Nori also provided such a comfort, not only physically, but emotionally and mentally. She helped my husband learn ways to help me manage labor pains, paid attention to what sort of environment I preferred, and even took photos of us with our newborn. I can’t imagine not choosing Nori!

Ayden My Birth Doula was an absolute lifesaver throughout my entire birth journey. From our prenatal visit to postnatal support, she was incredibly informative, knowledgeable, and always on time. She helped me understand what to expect, even knowing that birth can be an unexpected process at times, which gave me confidence and peace of mind going into labor. As a single mom by choice, Ayden was especially respectful and empathetic to my unique needs and how they differ from those of a couple. She was deeply supportive, caring, and thoughtful, never dismissive, and always made me feel seen, understood, and honored in my experience. During birth, Ayden was kind, nurturing, and remarkably calm. Her lovely positive affirmations and strong, grounding words helped me stay focused and empowered. Her intuitive guidance, especially with birth positioning for pushing was invaluable, and she attentively nurtured all of my needs, from snacks and water to maintaining dim lighting and a peaceful space. Giving birth to a Christmas baby unfortunately for me turned into travel nurses, and midwives and nothing going as planned. Yet, Ayden created calm within the chaos. She helped keep me grounded and feeling safe, and knowing she was by my side brought immense comfort. Her postnatal visit was just as supportive and reassuring, helping me process the experience and feel cared for beyond the birth itself. I truly cannot imagine my birth experience without Ayden’s support. Truly a Doula Angel Sent to help bring my baby girl into this world safely and as calm as possible in the unknown.

Débora is incredibly kind, patient, and nurturing, and she was truly wonderful with my newborn. From the very first day, it was clear that she has a deep and thoughtful understanding of newborn development and milestones—she noticed the little things, anticipated our baby’s needs, and always approached each moment with gentleness and care. Her cheerful and calming presence had a very positive impact on our baby’s mood and overall well-being, bringing warmth, joy, and steadiness into our daily routine.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Débora without hesitation and am deeply grateful for the love and expertise she brought to our home.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Teresa. I had a complicated C-section and my son was 4 days old when Teresa started working for me. Her kind and thoughtful nature immediately put me at ease and trusted her with my son completely. She went above and beyond to help me and was very resourceful. As a new mother I had so many questions and she was patient with me and answered all my queries. The nights that she was off, she was able to find us another amazing doula to help us. I would definitely hire Teresa again on the future and recommend her to anyone who is a new mother and is navigating motherhood for the first time. Thank you Teresa!

Hey there! Congratulations on all that is to come. I am very proud to offer both birth and postpartum services. I have always been fascinated with the process of birth and pregnancy, and after having experienced it myself, I found doula work to be intentional and powerful. I believe there is no wrong way to deliver, and no wrong way to mother, as long as the mother has been educated and is fully involved in the decision-making process. As a doula, I bring education, emotional support, and friendship to this journey's exciting yet vulnerable time.

Dana helped our family tremendously during a very challenging time. My wife’s delivery was not easy, and at one point she considered a C-section. Thanks to Dana’s support and guidance, we were able to have a natural delivery. She was patient, kind, and helped us navigate everything the right way. Hernknowledge helped us a lot even the nurses in the hospital didn’t intervene because they trusted Dana and her expertise in supporting us. We are very grateful for her real and meaningful help.

As a former OB-GYN, she brought a level of reassurance that I didn’t even know I needed—but more than anything, she was kind, intuitive, and completely focused on supporting me. During labor, Oksana was by my side the entire time—offering gentle encouragement, helping me breathe through each contraction, and using massage and position changes that truly made a difference. She worked seamlessly with the hospital staff and made sure I felt heard and respected at every stage. Thanks to her, I felt empowered and strong during my birth. I will always be grateful for her care, and I can’t imagine going through it without her.

I recently reconnected with Sage and she asked me to post a review, since I was the very first birth she ever attended. Sage wasn't a doula when she was there for my kids births, she was just a friend who had given birth before, and who offered to support me when I was young, inexperienced and alone. I had a boyfriend, but they were his first kids too and we were both scared. Between us asking her to be at the birth, and me going into labor the first time, she learned so so much about birth and postpartum and taught me so much. I didn't go to a birth class but I felt way more prepared one she started sharing what she'd learned. When the time came, and I was in labor, I told her and she drove from Atascadero to San Diego, made the 6 hour drive in 5 hours, and was with us for the hardest part of the birth. I still wonder if I could have done it without her help and I really don't think so. Having her there with me was so helpful that I even asked her to be there for my son a few years later, and asked her to go to a friend's birth as well. I'm really glad that she's doing this now, even if it took her 15 years before she decided to do it. I'm so glad we reconnected and I could share this, and I'm so proud to be the very first birth she attended and supported.
