In May of 2022 Camille became a certified Labor Doula and then added a certification in Postpartum and Infant Care in February of 2023. She is excited to be living her dream of supporting mamas and their families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum as a doula. She lives in Yamhill County, Oregon with her new baby boy, her husband, and their mini Aussie, Remi.

Working with Camille was such a blessing. She sat down with me to learn about my desires for birth but also had questions to get to know me better so she could truly support me in the ways I needed. She also had great resources for both me and my birth partner which were so helpful since this was my first pregnancy. She checked in towards the end of my pregnancy but never in an annoying way. You could tell she was genuinely wanting to make sure I was doing okay and making decisions I was comfortable with. During labor she walked right into the room and immediately started comforting me. She set out my affirmation cards, massaged my hands after I had to get my iv redone, she held essential oils up to my nose as I experienced nausea and she helped my nurses move me into different positions in bed. Once I was in active labor and was pushing I remember hearing her words of encouragement but it was subtle so that I could also feel the presence and support of my mom who was in the room as well. Camille did a wonderful job of being there for me while also supporting the team of people around me. I felt very taken care of and I am forever grateful for that presence!

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.

Hello Loves, my name is Samone Marie. I am a certified (THW) Full Circle Birth and Postpartum Doula, Community Health Worker, and Childbirth Educator serving families throughout Oregon and Washington. As a mother of four and grandmother, I bring both professional and lived experience into my work, including personal journeys with fertility, twins, natural and medicated births, and the many beautiful and unique paths birth can take. I believe birth is a sacred transition for the entire family, and I am passionate about helping parents feel informed, empowered, and deeply supported throughout their journey. My approach blends evidence-based education with heart-centered, culturally aware, and trauma-informed care. Along with emotional support, comfort measures, advocacy, and postpartum guidance, I also honor your traditional and cultural practices that support the whole family, including placenta encapsulation, belly binding and wrapping, Mother Blessing ceremonies, Closing of the Bones ceremonies, and cam infuse sound and energy practices. I strive to create a space where families feel seen, heard, respected, and cared for during one of life’s most meaningful transitions.

This pregnancy was extremely taxing on me, and I’m beyond fortunate that Samone was the doula I chose to support me through it all. She never failed to show up for me mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. From the countless resources she provided, to the random texts just checking in to make sure I was in a good headspace, to the house visits where she equipped me with tools to help prepare my mind and body for what they were about to endure—she was there every step of the way. I can honestly say that, aside from birthing a happy and healthy baby boy, Samone was the single most positive part of my pregnancy and postpartum experience. I will be forever grateful for her love, support, and presence during such a transformative time in my life. If I were planning on having more babies, I would choose her as my doula every single time.

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.

Emma brings a kind and warm presence to her work as a doula. Our family loved having her care for us all during our postpartum period. She kept me well stocked with herbal teas, sitz baths, and dropped by nourishing food. She was able to help wherever we needed and often without me even having to ask- like doing laundry and folding my, and my kids clothes/finding where they all go without me saying anything (I found this truly magical!). Emma was also so great with my older kiddo (3) , our new baby, and our dog. She always came to our home prepared with rituals to nourish and ground us. Thank you Emma! <3

Crystal is an amazing doula - she lives and breathes this work. I sought her out after I learned she had natural births with both of her babies and had experience with co-sleeping and breastfeeding. She delivered on that experience and expertise by setting me up with all the coping skills my husband and I needed to labor at home. She took time to answer my questions about the birthing process, breastfeeding and post partum, provided me with useful tools, checked on me frequently, loved and supported me during my post partum and has continued to be a resource since. I highly recommend Crystal as your doula as she will put her heart and soul in to being there for you. Crystal really walks the talk which was so important for me in choosing the right doula. Don’t let her slip away!
