Hello families! My name is Dr. Rachel Leigh Collins, and I am a naturopathic physician, pediatric-focused provider, and experienced caregiver who is passionate about supporting parents through the newborn transition. I specialize in providing overnight care so that parents can get much-needed rest while knowing their baby is safe, nurtured, and well cared for. My background in pediatrics and mental health means I bring not only practical newborn care skills, but also a trauma-informed, gentle, and compassionate approach to supporting families.

Hi, I’m Elena (she/her), a certified postpartum doula! I grew up bilingual, speaking German and Italian, and developed a deep love for connection through language. Becoming a mom changed everything for me, and it revealed just how crucial support is in those early days of parenting. It inspired me to follow my true calling: nurturing new parents and helping them build a strong foundation for this incredible chapter of their lives. My approach is deeply influenced by the German tradition of Wochenbett, which emphasizes rest, recovery, and bonding in the weeks after childbirth. I strive to create a nurturing space with personalized care that fosters connection, ease, and confidence as families grow into their new roles. I bring warmth, empathy, and a calming presence to every family I support, honoring the unique needs of each household. It’s a profound honor to walk alongside parents during one of the most tender times of their lives. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll find me exploring new places with my husband and son, practicing yoga, or simply soaking in the beauty around us.

Hello, my name is Amanda Hercules, I am a certified international pediatric sleep coach. I am also a foster parent here in the state of Washington. I have been working in childcare since I was 18. As a nanny, a household manager, a nanny share, and a tutor. I have a lot of experience with multiples and with multiple children in the house. In 2019 I got certified as a postpartum doula and began working with local families in their postpartum stage. I was primarily a night doula, and this paired with my years-long work in childcare I learned a lot about sleep. In 2024 I was certified an international pediatric sleep coach, and I am excited to help families on this journey. I am here to provide you with facts and support. I will never judge or pressure you to do anything. I like to lay all the options out with parents and together choose a method or combination of methods that works for your family! Please reach out to me with any questions you might have. AmandaHercules.com

Hello, my name is Sharlene, a postpartum doula and a naturopathic medical student with a deep passion for supporting new families. My journey into birth work began when I was a senior in high school who had the opportunity to do my rotations at a hospital in Texas. Little did I know at that time that it was passion that had been born from that experience— it planted the seed for my future. Moving to Washington to study at Bastyr was a leap towards making my dreams a reality. Becoming a doula was another beautiful discovery, introduced to me by a professor who not only taught me, but also helped me heal in ways I never expected. Now, as a postpartum doula, I am honored to walk alongside new parents, providing the care, support, and reassurance they need during such a transformative time. I can’t wait to continue growing in this field and, one day, serve my community as a midwife and a prenatal ND, providing holistic care throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

I’m a mom to two beautiful girls, a passionate birth doula, and someone who loves showing up for families during one of the most incredible — and life-changing — journeys there is. Years ago, I walked away from a decade-long career as a lawyer and followed my heart straight into birth work. Supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum feels like home to me — it’s where I come alive. Caring for others has always been second nature, but there’s just something about standing beside a family as they meet their baby that fills me up in a way nothing else does. My approach is simple — warm, personal, and rooted in trust. I believe every woman deserves to feel safe, supported, and truly seen as she steps into her power. Birth is raw, real, and different every time — sometimes full of joy and laughter, sometimes messy, emotional, and intense. I’m here for all of it — holding space, offering steady support, and reminding you that you are never in it alone. There’s no script, no one-size-fits-all here. I show up ready to meet you where you are — tuning in, listening, and walking beside you every step of the way. My goal is to make you feel held, informed, and confident, so you can look back on your birth story with pride. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll usually find me soaking up time with my girls — whether that’s cooking up something delicious, getting outside, or cheering way too loudly at the rink for my hockey-playing daughter (my proudest role might just be hockey mom!). Nature is my reset button, and the sauna-my happy place to unwind, reflect, and breathe. I’m also fluent in Russian and feel incredibly honored to support Russian-speaking families here in the Greater Seattle area — though truly, my heart is wide open to families from every background and walk of life. If you’re looking for a doula who’s warm, grounded, and 100% in your corner, I’d love to connect. You deserve support that feels like a soft place to land — and I’d be honored to be that for you.

I'm a Christian birth and postpartum doula. Every woman deserves to be supported and celebrated through her journey of motherhood. I'd be honored to be a part of it!

I became a doula because I am passionate about creating positive and nurturing labor experiences for all. I want to make you feel empowered to follow your natural instincts throughout labor so you have a deep sense of pride and accomplishment when you are holding your newborn. I will support any choice you make about how you wish to labor. I believe that true empowerment is about your ability to choose what is right for your body.

My practice is rooted in empathy, calm presence, and intuitive support. I believe every woman deserves to feel safe, empowered, and respected throughout their journey. Through my doula work, I strive to hold space with tenderness and strength — offering emotional, physical, and informational support that nurtures confidence and connection for both parents and baby.

My focus is on the mother’s recovery — both physical and emotional — while also offering gentle support with newborn care.

I earned my Doctorate of Chiropractic from Life University in Marietta, Georgia, where I dove deeply into my passion for pediatrics and perinatal care. I am board certified by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners and I am a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), Webster Technique Certified, and advanced proficient in Torque Release Technique. As an active board executive of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) campus club, I continued my journey by completing the ICPA series and have received my Certification by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (CACCP) to specialize in Pediatric and Perinatal care. During my time at Life University, I immersed myself in various chiropractic techniques including Activator, Diversified, Thompson, Webster, and Advanced Pediatric Techniques. Under the mentorship of Dr. Drew Rubin, an esteemed ICPA instructor, I honed my skills in examining and adjusting pediatric, perinatal, and neurodiverse populations. My personal health journey led me to chiropractic care after struggling with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and enduring numerous other surgeries. Since experiencing the transformative power of chiropractic adjustments, I've been free from POTS symptoms. This shift inspired me to pursue chiropractic education and dedicate myself to serving others. Reflecting on my own health challenges, I'm passionate about advocating for early chiropractic intervention, during pregnancy and infancy. I believe in empowering families with knowledge about the nervous system, anatomy, and wellness choices, nurturing a community of informed decision-makers in Seattle. Outside of my professional pursuits, I find joy in staying active, walking my sweet dog Betsy, and exploring the natural beauty of Seattle with my husband. I'm also an avid supporter of the Seattle Seawolves rugby team, always anticipating Friday evening games! My mission is to inspire families in Seattle about the transformative potential of quality chiropractic care, particularly in the perinatal and pediatric realms. By nourishing connections within the community and providing education, I strive to support families on their wellness journeys and facilitate healthier nervous systems from the earliest stages of life. You can find me at both of our amazing locations in Seattle AND Kirkland!

I am a birth doula, photographer, and childbirth educator serving the Puget Sound area. I love providing parents with compassionate support and evidence based resources.
