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.

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.

Hello everyone, my name is Sarah and I am a doula with a background in Montessori Education, ten years of experience as a teacher and nanny, and special interests in the spiritual dimension of birth and trauma-informed care and mental health and wellness in the inter-partum period. I gave birth to my two precious children in 2022 and 2025, and it was after my first birth that I realized I have an enormous amount of energy for and desire to participate in birth work. There is no doubt in my mind after experiencing it myself that birth belongs to the realm of the sacred. I aim to build a doula practice that helps birthing people cross the profound physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual thresholds during labor that are meant to prepare and initiate them into the new role that awaits them after their child’s birth. My favorite things to do when I’m not busy are doing literally anything with my children, exploring in nature, reading memoirs, writing poetry, and drinking a cup of tea or coffee while petting my kitties in the stillness of the morning before my day begins.
