Hi, I'm Teri-Ann and I am a certified childbirth educator and doula through Birthing From Within™ as well as a Certified Holistic Nutritionist™. I am passionate about helping parents prepare for birth but also to thrive rather than survive the 4th-trimester (what comes after birth). I Want You To Know... * Birth is just the beginning of your parental activation journey, it's the top of the mountain, your return is as important to prepare for as the birth is. * Knowledge is power and the better you understand what is coming your way, the better you’ll feel going through it. * This transformation will be hard. * Your relationship and how you see your partner will change. * You will never understand what sleep deprivation feels like until you look after a newborn baby. * Pregnancy changes your DNA, it changes your hormones, it changes how well your organs function too. So why doesn't our current prenatal care educate women on how to keep their body functioning optimally so the whole family benefits from having more energy, better health, and improved milk quality for your baby to enjoy. * Lactation depletes the already depleted body and birth recovery looks different for every birth outcome. * Your inner experience will affect how your body goes through this amazing transformation. * You need a plan to help you achieve your ultimate launch into parenthood I chose this career choice because I was so shocked by my first postpartum experience. I knew that this stage in life is so undervalued, underfunded, and under-supported by our current prenatal care system. To be a happy and healthy parent you need to plan for a holistic recovery. I’m here to help you achieve that, you will PLAN and THRIVE in your new role as parents or parents again. If you’re looking for a transformative, supported, and holistic recovery from pregnancy and birth you’ve found the right childbirth educator & 4th-trimester Doula. I look forward to meeting you, My website www.BirthingNourishedParents.com has all of my services and even downloadable meal guides so you can start feeding your baby with Evidence-Based meals that support optimal brain development TODAY. Check out my free resources page for essentials around what to stock your pantry with and ways to nourish your body throughout pregnancy and the 4th-trimester.

As a trained Birth and Postpartum Doula, I offer compassionate support to babies and their parents during the weeks and months after birth. I can assist with newborn care, feeding support, soothing and sleep routines, postpartum recovery support, emotional encouragement for parents, and creating a calm, organized environment that helps the whole family adjust with confidence. My comprehensive approach also includes light housekeeping, meal prep, and overnight care, ensuring your little ones are safe, nurtured, and loved around the clock. As a certified First Aid and CPR provider, I prioritize your child's safety and well-being. I have also completed Infection Prevention and Food Safety training, and am in the process of completing Lactation courses. In addition to my training as a Birth & Postpartum doula, I'm also an experienced End-of-Life Doula and hospice volunteer.

My path to becoming a doula began with my own births. As a mother, I have experienced how deeply birth can shape a woman. My last birth, supported by a doula, showed me the quiet power of being held without judgment, without pressure, just steady, present support. It changed everything for me. I have attended seven births so far, each one strengthening my respect for this work and deepening my calling to walk alongside women as they welcome new life. I have completed my doula training through Douglas College, where I developed the knowledge and skills to provide thoughtful, informed, and compassionate care. I believe birth is not something to be feared, but something to be witnessed and supported through. A doula holds that space, grounded and aware, so the mother can let go. With one foot in the conscious world, we create safety, allowing her to turn inward, trust herself, and fully enter the experience. In that space, she returns to herself. She rises into her instinctive, powerful nature. This is the heart of my work. I am committed to practicing cultural safety and honoring every client’s unique background, beliefs, and lived experience. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, heard, and fully supported, exactly as you are. I am there to hold steady, to protect the space, and to support you as you move through one of the most defining moments of your life. Through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and loss, my role is to ensure you feel seen, safe, and supported every step of the way. You can expect calm presence, emotional support, and gentle guidance when you need it most. You will always have someone in your corner. I am committed to continually deepening my knowledge and learning new techniques to better support both mother and baby.

I create space to acknowledge the transformation into parenthood and support your family so you feel grounded throughout this time of transition. At your birth, I tune into you and your support people to anticipate your needs, and take care of small details in maintaining the environment, to promote a more nurturing space for you all. I also offer postpartum support to help your family adjust during the postpartum period.

Hi everyone, my name is Megan. I’m a birth and postpartum doula, trained through Doula School Canada, based in Surrey, BC. I’m deeply passionate about supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the transition into parenthood. Whether you’re planning a home birth, hospital birth, or something in between, I offer steady, non-judgmental support with the goal of helping you feel confident, informed, and cared for throughout your experience. Alongside my doula work, I’ve been practicing henna/mehndi for several years and am now offering prenatal belly henna. If this is something you’re interested in, I’m currently offering it at a reduced rate as I begin working specifically with belly designs. I’m also in the process of completing my BA in Psychology, which allows me to bring a deeper understanding of emotional support, as well as knowledge of development and attachment, into the care I provide for both parents and babies. In addition to birth support, I offer postpartum care with flexible daytime and overnight availability to help you feel supported during those early weeks.

Hi There! I am an experienced labour and delivery trained nurse with over three years of experience in perinatal care. My passion is to support the mother and baby dyads by reducing trauma in labour.

I serve clients seeking a positive birth experience in Vancouver, Burnaby and North Vancouver. My doula style is pragmatic, direct and non-judgmental. My clients have remarked that I provide a balanced mix of practical help and emotional support. My goal is to give new families knowledge and confidence about the childbirth process so they can go into it feeling positive and well-informed. I like to think of myself as the practical, evidence-based doula – with a deep reverence for the inherent magic of birth as well.

I’m a caring, calm, and practical family support provider with a diverse professional background in healthcare, childcare, aquatics, first aid, and community work. I spent 12 years working in healthcare with at-risk youth and older adults, and I’m currently completing my Full Spectrum Doula training through Doula School Canada, including postpartum care. I bring that combination of healthcare experience, safety knowledge, and hands-on family support into the way I care for both parents and children. My approach is very individual. I don’t believe there is one “right” way to parent, recover, feed a baby, build a routine, or support a child. I believe in meeting families where they are, listening before assuming, and helping people feel more confident in their own abilities rather than stepping in and trying to take over or “fix” things. Sometimes support means practical help, sometimes it means information or reassurance, and sometimes it means recognizing that someone is exhausted and needs a meal, a shower, a few uninterrupted hours of sleep, or simply another capable adult in the room. With children, I’m calm, creative, and very hands-on. I encourage age-appropriate independence, I’m patient about mistakes, happy to answer approximately nine million questions, and generally not bothered by a little mud, paint, flour, or chaos along the way. I also have extensive experience supporting neurodivergent children and youth and take an individualized, trauma-informed approach to communication, routines, sensory needs, and emotional regulation. Ultimately, I want the families I support to feel safe, respected, listened to, and more confident — not judged or managed. I bring a lot of professional knowledge into a home, but I never forget that it is your family, your values, and your life. My role is to support you in it.

Hi there, my name is Joann. I am deeply passionate about birth work and understand that each pregnancy and birth experience is unique. My goal is to provide evidence-informed care that empowers families to make the choices that feel right for them. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to support families in the language they feel most comfortable with.

Hi! I’m Laura, a mom, wife, friend and most importantly a follower of Jesus. I am a certified birth doula serving families across the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland. My passion for birth began after the caesarean birth of my first son. The more I learned, the more deeply I fell in love with the process of labour and birth. In 2023, I experienced a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean) with my second son the most empowering moment of my life. This journey shaped the way I support families today. My heart and my goal are to ensure that every person involved in the birth feels seen, valued, and loved. I’m honoured to walk alongside you and look forward to learning more about your story and your journey.
