My mission as a doula is to support birthing people and families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum while decreasing disparities for vulnerable populations and increasing positive birth experiences for all. Please inquire for sliding scale support or pro-bono services if needed.
I am a certified DONA International and Oregon Traditional Health Worker Doula with independent contractor privileges at Legacy and Providence Hospitals. I can serve most people with Oregon Health Plan at no cost as well as private pay clients at birthing places of their choice. Birth services include a complimentary consultation, two prenatal appointments, two week on-call period, birth support, and two postpartum visits. Labor support includes an array of physical, emotional, and educational tools such as counter pressure and position guidance. I am available for questions, resources and support via text, email and phone from time of hire through final postpartum visit. In addition, I am a trained postpartum doula and can provide hands-on support for your family as you adjust emotionally and physically to life with your baby. Postpartum services include education, newborn care, feeding support, sleep support, organization, baby-related chores, comfort measures, and more.

Erin is an incredible doula. I can often be indecisive and slightly eccentric.....and having someone like Erin who is professional, direct, and supportive was so incredibly helpful during such a significant life event and during the days leading up to my birth.
I felt like I was in really good hands, like she was a part of the family during our time spent together. She goes above and beyond when it comes to her services, making sure you know all your options, that you feel empowered, calm and heard, regardless of your birth plan. If/when we have baby number 2 I would hope that she would be our doula again!

Erin was everything we could have asked for and more. We hired her for birth and postpartum, which was honestly the dream. She came in and naturally fit right in, she helped us so much. Our toddler loved her and I easily trusted her with my newborn. She is a wonderful person all around and I would recommend her over and over!

This was my first pregnancy and I am highly knowledgeable when it comes to children and birth itself so I was hesitant on the idea of a doula. After meeting with Erin the first time I was very pleased to find out she was able to offer me so much more information and knowledge on things I would have never thought of myself. She was great with listening and doing research on things for you if she felt she could find resources to help answer your questions. When it came to birth, Erin was at the hospital around the same time I was. She was excellent at guiding my fiancé in how he can help support me and guide me through contractions. She was a great distraction and followed/respected everything I had asked her to not say or to leave out during my birth. She also was able to capture the most beautiful photos of my daughter being born that I will forever be thankful for. I was hesitant at first for someone to take pictures of such a vulnerable time but those pictures I will forever be grateful for. She took them candidly and without me even noticing! If you’re ever on the fence about photos, please please please choose to do them! Erin also came to me twice after the baby was born. She is always so sweet and would bring coffee, and things like epsom salts for a postpartum mom, or even a cute handmade hat for my daughter. All around I’m truly grateful that I decided to have a doula for my birth, and that Erin herself was part of such a special day for us. Absolutely will be requesting to have Erin back again if I ever decide to have number two. Thank you Erin!

Having Erin as my doula was such a huge blessing. More than I knew I would need. I was really set on having a VBAC for my last pregnancy and unfortunately my health wouldn't allow that. But Erin was there for me for 3 days of my attempted induction, encouraging, calming, comforting. She really went above and beyond for us. I am so thankful she was there with me and my husband through this birth experience.

Erin was amazing! We connected right away and she made me feel very comfortable and not judged. I had a c-section at 34 weeks unexpectedly. I texted Erin when I found out I was going to give birth and she was luckily already at the hospital. She made me feel at ease with the madness and chaos. Erin was able to be with me after the baby was born in the operating room and later in recovery. Thank goodness she was there! She also took the time to visit us in the NICU and again at home. She was very informative and helpful. I would highly recommend working with Erin. She’s not pushy and is very open to working with you to figure out what is best for YOU.

When my I met Erin her warm, professional, and passionate personality made me want to meet her right away. And I could not have made a better choice in working with her as my birth doula. I am a first time mother and was so nervous of doing it all on my own as I didn't have the support of a spouse. But My labor ended with a healthy baby and a healthy mom, for which I am so grateful for.
