How Much Does a Midwife or Home Birth Midwife Cost in Ridgefield, WA?

Hello! I'm a midwife in Forest Grove, OR, a small town west of Portland. I work with a small, skilled and dedicated team, and we have a cute office where we do most appointments. I believe that every birth deserves to be held sacred, and it should be honored as a sacred event. I do my best to blend ancient midwifery wisdom and modern medical tools to keep Mom and Baby safe and healthy while still giving the birth the time and space it deserves to unfold in its own way. I believe in providing clients the information and supporting them in their decisions. I focus on trust and relationship. The greatest goal for me is not just a healthy birth, but also for the family to feel stronger and supported during their experience. I hope my clients leave care feeling empowered and trusting their own intuition.

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.

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 certification in natural childbirth. During my schooling, I had the privilege of attending over 10 births assisting a naturopathic midwife. Most of these births were home births, and a few of them were hospital transfers where I would go with the family and medical team and act more as a doula. 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. As I am completing my doula certification, I am able to offer pro-bono (free) services to three clients. This includes 3 prenatal visits where we will discuss health and pregnancy history, review positions and birth partner assistance, create a birth plan and discuss when to call me. I will then be on call for your birth!

Hi! I'm Sophie Brabec, I'm a birth doula located in Battle Ground, WA. My passion for birth work was sparked by the incredible beauty and joy I see in pregnancy and birth. I believe that every woman in labor deserves compassionate, individualized support and that a calm, attentive presence is immensely beneficial during labor. I believe that women have an innate capability to give birth in the way that’s best for them. I'm eager to remind women of that innate capability and passionate about supporting women through their labor in order that they might have the birth they want. I aim to protect your birth preferences by being your advocate as well as encourage and empower you to approach birth confidently through informed support. Outside of birth work I'm happiest when I'm spending time with family and my church community, reading, being creative and getting into nature.

I am a Christian and I approach my work with a heart for ministry! It’s important to me to support families with my doula and Spinning Babies training but also, their marriage and individual psychological wellbeing! My goal is to provide doula care with excellence and, support my clients birth vision for their individual needs! I love supporting all families but feel especially called to first time moms, VBACs, and moms with previous trauma (birth or otherwise)! I have 4 children of my own and and committed to continuing to date my husband! We love learning, the outdoors, playing/singing worship, and laughter! I’m praying for you as you search for your doula, thanks for looking at my profile!
