I believe birth is not just a physical event - it’s a sacred, life-changing moment that shapes families for years to come. Every woman deserves to feel safe, respected, and deeply supported during her pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. ​​ Hi, I’m Ashley, a doula serving families in Greater Spokane and North Idaho. My calling into birth work grew from a deep desire to walk alongside women in one of the most vulnerable and transformative times of life. As a Christian, I see each mother and baby as uniquely created and worthy of tender care, but I joyfully serve families of all faiths and backgrounds. My approach blends compassionate presence, evidence-based guidance, and an unwavering belief that you deserve to feel empowered in every decision you make for your body and your baby. ​ My own experiences of pregnancy and motherhood showed me how much difference it makes to have someone in your corner - someone who listens without judgment, holds space for your emotions, and supports the choices that feel right for you. Whether you envision a quiet home birth, a hospital delivery, or something in between, my goal is to help you feel informed, confident, and never alone.​​​ ​​ From hands-on comfort measures and advocacy in the birth space, to postpartum support with feeding, recovery, and newborn care, I’m here to make your transition into parenthood smoother and more joyful. ​ ​ It is an honor to serve families during this sacred season of life. If you’re looking for a doula who will meet you with warmth, respect, and unwavering support, I would love to connect with you and learn more about your hopes for your journey. ​ Professional Credentials ​​ Advanced VBAC Doula (AVD-TVL), The VBAC Link ​ Christian certifications completed through The Elite Doula & Co.

I had an incredibly intense experience in April 2024 when I gave birth to my son. I had planned to deliver at a midwifery center, but after arriving there in labor, it was believed that my labor had stalled, so I was sent home to rest. After a few hours of sleeping through contractions, I woke up in the middle of the night realizing that my baby was coming much sooner than expected. I immediately called Sam, and she arrived at my house within minutes. We initially planned to head back to the midwifery center, but it quickly became clear that I wasn’t going to make it in time. We moved into the bathroom, and I could feel my baby descending. In that moment, it was just the two of us. I had an overwhelming urge to push, and with one push, Sam calmly caught my baby. She remained composed as she gently unwrapped the cord from around his neck, wrapped him in warm towels, and helped stimulate him to cry. Her calm presence, quick thinking, and skill made all the difference in such a critical moment. I truly believe that without her there, the situation could have turned out very differently. I am beyond grateful for her care and for the way she supported me through such an intense and unforgettable experience.

Julia Byrum

Julia Byrum is the founder and sole proprietor of Selah Birth Services. Here are a few fun facts about her. Julia and the love of her life, Benaiah just celebrated their first year of marriage. A graduate of Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN, she majored in Music and Theology and minored in Family Science. She has a deep passion for worship and plans on incorporating that into her doula career. Julia loves spending time outdoors, exploring nature, and traveling to new places around the world. At home, she finds joy in the everyday: cooking, baking, decorating their new home, and keeping a warm, well-loved space. Above all, she loves and serves the Lord with her whole life, and counts herself deeply blessed to step into this new calling as a doula and childbirth educator. Selah Birth Services is a Christ-centered Doula and Childbirth Education business and ministry. Since she was a young girl Julia has had an interest and love for birth. She is now fulfilling her dream of being doula and bringing the Lord into her work. When choosing a name for her business, Julia landed on the word "Selah". Selah is a Biblical word which appears mostly in the Psalms and means, "to pause and reflect." In Scripture, this gives the reader a chance to contemplate what they just read. In worship, this allows space to be still and silent to listen intently to the Lord. And in labor, this applies to the break in between contractions; a chance to pause, a chance to breathe, a chance to rest in the presence of the Lord. Julia is not only equipped with the knowledge to be a professional and educated birth worker, but she also sees birth work as a ministry. She desires to bless and support families as they emerge into parenthood. Bringing life into this world is a gift from the Lord and Julia would be honored to support you in your journey.

Shanna Stevens

Hello, my name is Shanna E. Stevens, and I am the heart and hands behind Pleasant Passage Doula. As a certified birth doula, mother of five, and grandmother, I bring not only professional training but also lived wisdom and compassion into every birth space I enter. My journey into birth work is rooted in a deep calling to support families through one of life’s most sacred transitions—with presence, encouragement, and care that honors the unique story of each family. I understand that birth is not just a physical experience—it is emotional, mental, and spiritual. My role is to hold space for all of it. Whether you’re planning a hospital birth, home birth, or something in between, I meet you where you are and walk alongside you with steadiness and respect. I believe birth is a profound rite of passage that belongs to the birthing person and their family. My philosophy is grounded in three values: 🌿 Empowerment through knowledge – When families are informed, they can make choices that feel aligned with their values and desires. I provide evidence-based resources, practical tools, and gentle guidance so you feel confident in your decisions. 🌿 Unwavering support – Birth can be unpredictable, but you are never alone. I offer continuous emotional reassurance, comfort measures, and advocacy, ensuring your voice is heard and your needs are respected throughout the process. 🌿 Respect for your unique journey – No two births look the same. I honor your cultural background, preferences, and intuition. My goal is not to shape your birth into my vision, but to help you feel safe, seen, and supported in yours. It is my honor to walk beside families as they welcome new life. Every birth is sacred, and I consider it a privilege to witness your strength, resilience, and love as you step into parenthood.

Amber was an incredible support throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience. From the very beginning, she was kind, understanding, and incredibly informative. She helped me clearly define my ideal birth plan by asking thoughtful questions I hadn’t even considered, which made me feel more confident and prepared going into labour. Throughout my pregnancy, Amber provided consistent emotional and physical support. She was always available when I needed to talk, and her calm, reassuring presence made a huge difference during such an important time. She truly made me feel supported in every aspect of my journey. During labour, she went above and beyond—bringing snacks, offering water and juice, and stepping in seamlessly when my partner was occupied with our other child. In those moments, she was exactly the kind of support I needed: attentive, grounded, and fully present. She also communicated my birth plan clearly to the doctors and nurses and confidently spoke up on my behalf when I wasn’t able to answer questions myself, which allowed me to stay focused and feel cared for. Her postpartum care was just as amazing. She came to my home with thoughtful treats and drinks, and truly took the time to check in on me. Even before the birth, she made sure I had a postpartum plan in place, including meals and self-care, which made a big difference in my recovery and overall experience. I’m so grateful to have had Amber by my side—I felt supported, empowered, and never alone. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula.
