Congratulations on your pregnancy and welcome to parenthood!

 

I’m so happy you’re considering me as your doula to support you through your journey into motherhood. Giving birth is one of the most life-changing experiences you will ever go through, but in today’s medical system, many women find it hard to have a positive and empowering birth. Whether this is your first baby or you have children already, every birth is different and deserves to be treated with respect. As a doula, I will support you unconditionally and without judgment. My role is to hold the space for you and your partner and to stand by your side through this very special time to make sure you feel safe during pregnancy, birth, into the early days of motherhood and beyond.

My Philosophy

Every birth is as unique as the pregnant person and baby experiencing it and we should honor that by staying present, mindful, and aware of the pregnant person desires. My guiding philosophy in working with pregnant people and families is in discovering what a sense of safety looks like for them and reclaiming this connection to comfort and support that has been a principle in the childbearing process for all. I am committed to supporting parents throughout their birthing experience whilst empowering the entire family through the journey into parenthood. I believe that if every pregnant person has a supportive, safe, and empowering birth and early parenthood experience — it will be a positive result/catalyst towards deeply generational healing and transformation. Making mindful choices during pregnancy inspires empowered births, which encourages confidence at the onset of the parenting journey allowing children an empowering, loving and supportive entrance into the world.

 
 
 
 
 
Client Testimonials

“We loved working with Dannah! She was so organized, helpful, and kind. She provided a ton of valuable resources prior and post-birth, as well as offered her valuable support and training during the labor and birth. She was a great combination of confident and humble, willing to take our lead and support us, yet also step in and offer suggestions when we needed it. She was also fun and very enjoyable to have around! I'd highly recommend her as your doula.”

— BETHANY (U DISTRICT)

“Dannah was absolutely wonderful. The meetings prior to delivery were very informative, and made us feel prepared for decision-making around birth. She Made a point to get to know us both as individuals and as a couple. During labor and delivery Dannah was a calm and supportive presence. She offered her experience and knowledge throughout the process of labor and delivery. We are so grateful that she was present for us during this time!”

— LAURA (QUEEN ANNE)

“Loved having the peace of mind that someone with extensive childbirth experience would be by my side throughout all stages of my labor and delivery (without any shift changes) offering both physical support and emotional support for myself and my husband. My family felt it was well worth the financial investment to have Dannah be apart of my pregnancy.”

— CAITLIN (WEST SEATTLE)

“Dannah was absolutely amazing. I have a super supportive husband but it was nice to have another support person there to help me through the process. Dannah was a perfect fit in terms of understanding communication style between me and my husband, and her personality complemented us really well. She listened to what our preferences were and was really respectful of how we wanted the birth process to go. She was, and continues to be, a great resource for various questions we have.”

— HANNAH (COLUMBIA CITY)

“We are so happy with our doula, Dannah and our birth. Dannah was so professional and approachable, and was a great resource for us before and after our daughter was born. She was very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure she was present for our birth. I would recommend her and the doula services, having her present was invaluable for our birth.”
