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.

Melanie Guymon is a superb doula. She spent nights with our little bub for 2+months, she gave us a reprieve and support during the difficult newborn days hard. We had a colicky baby and Melanie not only helped us advocate to our doctors that our baby might have reflux, but she also gave us superb tips on how to help ease her discomfort at night and during the day.  During her time with us Melanie also helped us prepare our baby to move out of the swaddle, and due to her tips, our baby seamlessly transitioned from her Snoo + bassinet and into her crib and a sleep sack. She continued to support us with sleep coaching as well, helping us with our babies sleep schedule, which has allowed our baby to sleep better than all of our other baby friends in a similar age range. We had Melanie start with us around the 6 week mark due to our postpartum schedule, and she was with us until just under 4 months. We could not have done this journey without her.

Harneet was an incredible postpartum doula for our family, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. She was always punctual, dependable, and responsive, which gave us so much peace of mind during those early weeks. She quickly learned our daughter’s routines and provided excellent overnight care so we could get the rest we desperately needed. Our family also faced an unexpected medical diagnosis for our baby, and Harneet was a wonderful source of support throughout that experience. We always felt that our daughter was in caring, capable hands. We are so grateful for the support Harneet provided our family and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dependable postpartum doula.

Sage was a dream come true for us. I was so deeply appreciative of the updates, the communication, the honesty, the positivity, and the trust that Sage was able to provide for us while caring for our baby while we were on a work trip. My two older children were also so impressed by Sage and really enjoyed all of their interactions. We recommend Sage wholeheartedly and with absolute confidence. The peace of mind and comfort Sage was able to give us during what could've been a really nerve-wracking time is something I will always be grateful for and never forget.

Hi, I’m Hailey Rose Bridge. I am a birth and postpartum doula, mother, preschool teacher, and herbal student serving families throughout the South Sound region of Washington. My approach is rooted in the belief that every family deserves compassionate, individualized support throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I strive to provide evidence-based information, emotional support, practical guidance, and a calm, reassuring presence so families can make informed decisions and feel confident in their choices. As a Black and Anishinaabe birth worker, I am passionate about helping families navigate this transformative season with dignity, autonomy, and support. I welcome all birth preferences and family structures and aim to create a space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Whether you are planning a home birth, birth center birth, or hospital birth, I am honored to walk alongside you as you prepare for birth and adjust to life with your new baby.

I honestly don't know if words can fully capture what an incredible person Hailey is. She is, without question, one of the kindest, most compassionate, and most genuinely loving people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. As my toddler's teacher, Hailey has been nothing short of extraordinary. She has a beautiful gift for making children feel safe, cherished, and important. My child absolutely adores her, and as a parent, there is no greater comfort than knowing your little one is being cared for by someone who loves and nurtures them so wholeheartedly. But what makes Hailey truly special is that her care extends far beyond the children in her classroom. She has been an incredible source of support to me as a toddler mom. She has celebrated milestones with us, listened without judgment, reassured me during hard moments, and always greeted us with warmth, kindness, and genuine care. She somehow has a way of making you feel like you're not just another parent dropping off your child—she makes you feel seen, supported, and deeply cared for. Trust is everything when it comes to my child, and I trust Hailey completely. I would trust her with my baby without hesitation because I know her heart. She cares deeply, loves fiercely, and shows up for people in the most thoughtful and compassionate ways. She is the kind of person who makes everyone around her feel a little more at ease and a little more loved. I cannot imagine anyone more perfectly suited to becoming a doula. Bringing a new baby into the world is one of the most vulnerable and meaningful experiences a family can have, and every family deserves someone like Hailey by their side. She has the gentleness, empathy, patience, and calming presence that cannot be taught. She is the person you want holding your hand, encouraging you, and reminding you that you are capable and cared for. Hailey is simply one of those rare people who make the world a better, softer, and kinder place just by being in it. Any family lucky enough to have her as their doula will be receiving so much more than support during birth and postpartum—they will be receiving the love, care, and presence of an absolutely extraordinary human being. Our family has been profoundly touched by her kindness, and we will always be grateful for the love she has given both our child and us.

I’m a DONA certified birth and postpartum doula who blends city grit with grounded, nature-rooted care. My journey began by supporting friends through birth and postpartum while navigating the unpredictable life of a military family. A path that taught me flexibility, compassion, and a deep respect for the strength of parents. Before becoming a doula, I worked as a corrections officer, where I learned to stay calm under pressure and advocate fiercely for others. Today, I bring that same steady confidence to the families I serve through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. Once a city girl and now deeply connected to nature, I offer a balance of strength and softness in my work as a birth and postpartum doula, infant sleep consultant, and placenta encapsulation specialist. I also provide traditional belly binding support to promote healing, grounding, and body awareness during the postpartum transition. As a mom to two spirited boys and two lovable fur babies, I know firsthand how messy, magical, and transformative those early days can be. My goal is to walk beside you with knowledge, warmth, and zero judgment. Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating postpartum recovery, supporting your body’s healing journey, or finding rhythm and rest with your newborn. I’m honored to support families through every layer of this season- body, mind, and heart.

From our very first phone call, I knew Lindzee and I would get along and work well together. I could not imagine going through labor without Lindzee by my side. When I went into labor, Lindzee came to our home and stayed through the night, helping me progress and supporting me through every stage. Once we went to the hospital, her guidance, encouragement, and gentle push helped me keep going, especially when we worked together to help get my daughter into the right position. Although my labor ultimately did not go the way I had hoped or expected, Lindzee was there every step of the way with love, support, reassurance, and comfort. She helped me feel heard and cared for during some of the hardest moments of my birth experience. One of my favorite memories that I still think about is when I needed a distraction during my long labor, and Lindzee and I ended up playing Tapple while my mom watched us. It was such a simple moment, but it perfectly captures the kind of support she gave me, helping me through the difficult moments while also making me laugh and feel like myself. We bonded throughout my long labor, and I feel incredibly lucky that I gained not only an amazing doula but also a friend through this experience. I will always be grateful for Lindzee and the role she played in bringing my daughter into the world. I truly cannot recommend her enough.

I'm thrilled to share about the amazing help we received from Kelly Hickman as our sibling support doula. Kelly's commitment and knowledge were truly outstanding. She managed to take care of our older child while also providing invaluable assistance to our birth doula during my wife's home birth. Kelly offered us two home visits prior to the birth of our daughter to answer all of our questions and to spend quality one on one time with our 3 year old son, engaging with him in his favorite activities. She took pictures with him so we could look at them together as a family and talk with him about how his friend Kelly was going to come back and play with him soon when mommy was having his baby sister. She really took the time to bond and form a genuine connection with him, and because of that, he very much looked forward to his time with her when she finally returned for the birth. Her sincere care, attentiveness, and ability to handle multiple tasks made a significant impact during this important time for our family. Kelly's presence provided comfort and reassurance, and her dedication to the well-being of both my children was truly extraordinary. I'm incredibly thankful for her exceptional support and wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone in need of a compassionate and skilled doula.

I connect deeply with my clients and care for them as if they are my own family.

Kayla was both my birth and postpartum doula and I had an incredible experience with her for both. Before birth she did classes with my husband and I so that we would feel more prepared on things like the labor process and infant care. During these she was incredibly knowledgeable. She had lots of information prepared and also answered any and all questions we had. She clearly put a lot of thought into what information was important to go over and I left feeling much more knowledgeable than before. During my labor experience she was supportive, caring, and knowledgeable every step of the way. I had a very long labor that ended in an unplanned c section and I feel like without her the experience would've felt impossible. She not only supported me but also supported my husband during this experience and he feels strongly that she made our experience so much better by being there. She also was my postpartum doula. I completely trusted her with care of my newborn and she did an amazing job. I tend to be an anxious person but she is someone I feel 100% comfortable around. My daughter loves her and she took great care of her. She also was very knowledgeable and supportive during this time and had many tips that made the postpartum period much easier. I'll always be grateful for her and I would recommend her to anyone.

I would love to become part of your support system!

We hired Esme as a postpartum doula to help us get some sleep during the first months with our newborn. As first-time parents, everything felt overwhelming. We were also a bit worried about having someone new in the house at night, but Esme made it feel easy from day one—we felt comfortable with her right away. Esme was honestly a lifesaver for us in those early months. We feel very lucky to have had her support. Our baby would often wake up crying at night and was hard to soothe, but Esme handled those moments with such calmness and confidence. She clearly knows how to work with newborns, and that’s not easy to find. Our daughter felt comfortable with her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. What stood out the most was how calm she stayed, even during more intense moments. That calm presence really helped our baby settle much faster. We would absolutely recommend Esme to any new parents—she makes a huge difference, both for the baby and for your own sanity and sleep.

I’ll be honest. I wasn’t sure what to expect when we hired a birth doula, but I can’t imagine our labor without Haley. She supported both my wife and me from day one. During labor, she stayed calm, guided us through every stage, and helped me be the partner I wanted to be. Her experience and steady presence made our hospital birth feel so much more peaceful and empowering. The biggest thing I noticed was how safe and confident my wife felt with Haley by her side. If you’re looking for a compassionate birth doula, pregnancy support, or labor support, I can’t recommend Haley enough. She was one of the best investments we made for our growing family.

Now that I am six months postpartum I am able to step back and write this objectively. As a single first time mom I sought postpartum doula services knowing that the extra support would be really crucial for me and my baby. Unfortunately Marlo did not prioritize my care despite agreeing to and also accepting my hefty deposit up front. Her daughter was also pregnant at the time which she did inform me of, however assured me that there should be no conflict even given our proximity of due dates. I trusted her judgement as a professional. As most births go, her daughter ended up going into labor late and I ended up being induced early; so unfortunately we ended up giving birth within the same week. I was understanding and allowed her to find a replacement doula for me (who I hadn’t met) for my first night home from the hospital. (Not ideal but I really didn’t have any other option as the first night home I desperately needed help). I was again understanding in her being unavailable the first week for me so she could be home with her daughter and new granddaughter. So here I was, a first time, new mom, alone. I tend to try and look on the bright side and in this situation, in order to protect my mental health, I did my best to be as positive and optimistic about the circumstances as possible. I found a rhythm on my own, I took care of my baby and myself on my own, and I cherished the time we had together just figuring out new little newborn life together. I allowed Marlo to continue to be unavailable without making the situation more difficult and told her I did not want to use replacements who I had not yet met (as that was her solution to try and offer me random other doulas she knew - Not what I was comfortable with nor what I paid for). So after about a month without having been able to utilize any of the hours I had paid upfront for with her (other than the first night with the replacement she gave me), I asked about cancelling the contract since the majority of the time I was anticipating using her services was for the beginning of my postpartum and that had not happened due to her unavailability. After a month doing everything on my own, it made zero sense for me to all of a sudden have her come in and start taking over once I had already figured out my way with things. Sorry but I didn’t want to just hand my baby over all of a sudden when he was used to having me with him 24/7. The whole purpose of hiring a postpartum doula was to be there to help me when I was recovering and had a brand new newborn not after I had recovered and was able to do everything on my own. She informed me that I could cancel the remainder of the contract but not only would she not be able to refund the hours I had prepaid for that weren’t utilized, she also had no availability for me to use the rest of those hours either. She said that she had to seek alternative work upon me cancelling the remainder of my contract so was no longer available. Even with this response I could be understanding as I know things arise and of course I wouldn’t want her to have to go without work, however her decision to keep my $600 in hours that was paid for and not provided to me seemed pretty awful given the fact that the entire reason I had to cancel my contract was because of her unavailability. (Which I will also add, for someone who is a doula and accustomed to births, she should know better than to schedule herself so close in conjunction with her own personal life events. It would’ve behooved her to just not have been available at all during those months she knew her daughter was due and I would’ve been able to find a proper doula who could’ve actually been there as promised). As a mom now, the way I look at money has really changed. Every dollar I have means money for my baby. $600 for a new, single mother, is a lot of money to have lost for essentially a “contract” which clearly doesn’t protect the needs of the mother but solely the selfish business of the doula. My advice for any mothers/parents seeking doula services. Read the contract thoroughly and make sure you are also considered in it. That was my mistake. I simply believed that by being understanding and trusting her false gestures of care that she would not be someone who cared more about her own selfish greed. I was wrong.

— Amy M., review of Marlo Knight September 2026

We had the absolute best experience with Taeleonna! She helped us with all three of our babies, born 1/16/19, 11/11/21, and 6/5/23, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. Taeleonna worked with each of our kids for about three months, helping with sleep conditioning and establishing healthy sleep routines. Having her support during those newborn months made such a huge difference for our entire family. She was patient, dependable, knowledgeable, and so caring with each of our babies. Every baby is different, and I loved that she adjusted what she did based on each of their individual needs rather than treating every baby the same. Having someone you completely trust caring for your newborn overnight is a huge deal, and we always felt comfortable knowing our babies were with Taeleonna. The fact that we chose to have her back for all three of our kids probably says it best! We are so grateful for everything she did for our family and would absolutely recommend Taeleonna to any family looking for overnight newborn support and help establishing healthy sleep habits.

— Tanika G., review of Taeleonna Wells September 2026

Tae is caring, attentive, and reliable - truly a baby whisperer who I’d highly recommend to any new parents. We hired Tae for 12 weeks to take care of our newborn. Not only were we able to sleep soundly knowing our baby was in good hands, but Tae went above and beyond. She offered helpful suggestions and advice on feeding and ways to improve our baby’s sleep. Thanks to Tae’s expertise and advice, our baby was sleeping through the night by the time we said goodbye to Tae. We so appreciate Tae for setting us up for success!
