My husband, of over 30 years, and I have three grown children. We are super excited to be living in Kitsap Co. again after being away for most of our married lives. As a certified Doula, postpartum doula and Childbirth Educator I enjoy all aspects of the birth process, providing kind, experienced support before, during and after labor. Your birth should be a beautiful, empowering experience in the environment of your choice.

I love my job! Supporting parents through labor, birth and postpartum is amazing, and rewarding, and what I feel called to do. I am a birth and postpartum doula, as well as a childbirth educator and a lactation educator. Having an understanding of your options is a big part of preventing birth trauma. Educating parents about how they can better navigate their labor and the medical system is a big part of what I do. I support folks emotionally, physically, with information/resources, and with advocacy (and photo documentation of their labor). We usually have some fun too!

I practice trauma informed, perinatal, birth, and postpartum support for all birthing bodies, couples, single and single by choice parents, adoptive parents, and families on their surrogacy journeys. My support is queer competent, weight inclusive and intersectional, and it is always my priority to support people getting the care that helps them feel safe and seen, essential to the health and wellness of both baby and family. I know first hand how beautiful, challenging and exhausting childbirth and parenting is, and I come with a wealth of personal and professional experience to share with you.

Hi, I’m McKenna! I’m a full spectrum doula providing birth, postpartum, and family support to folks in the Seattle area. I focus on meeting people where they are at and helping to optimize care and support that is tailored to each individual’s unique needs.

Five years ago, I became a birth nerd. Long before my son was born, I found myself fascinated by fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, and breastfeeding. I couldn’t get enough—I was constantly reading, learning, and diving deeper into everything related to the childbearing journey. After becoming a mother, that curiosity only grew stronger. Rather than shifting my focus entirely to parenting, I felt drawn to deepen my understanding of birth itself. When my second child was born, I was grateful for all the knowledge I had gathered along the way—and the experience reignited my passion for birth even more. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting many pregnant friends, offering encouragement, information, and a listening ear. Eventually, I realized that supporting families during pregnancy and birth was more than an interest—it was a calling. To further my knowledge and develop my skills, I completed one of the nation’s leading doula training programs at Bastyr University, approved by DONA International. Today, I feel honored to walk alongside growing families during one of the most meaningful transitions of their lives. My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based support so parents can feel informed, confident, and empowered as they welcome their baby into the world. ✨ Birth is powerful, and it is a privilege to be part of that journey.
