About me

Born in Ukraine but have been a PNW admirer and resident for the last 10 years. My journey to becoming a doula was more than a career choice — it felt like a calling. Sudden, exciting, and profoundly meaningful. I've always felt a deep, instinctual pull to help people. Now, I am happy to provide all kinds of support in birth and postpartum. I am blessed with a caring husband, a spirited toddler son, and a wild Bengal cat who adds a touch of mischief to our household.

Birth Package
We start with a free consultation, where we can connect and discuss your hopes and needs for this incredible journey. Together, we’ll prepare through two prenatal meetings to ensure you feel confident and supported. From 37 weeks onward, I’ll be on call, ready to provide continuous care and encouragement during your birthing experience. After your baby arrives, I’ll visit 1–2 times postpartum to offer guidance and care as you settle into this beautiful new chapter.
