My training
I'm a DONA trained birth doula through Mother Tree Birth in Portland, Oregon, and I've completed postpartum doula training with Birth Arts International. Together with my IBCLC, that means I can support you before, during, and after your baby arrives.
What's included
3 prenatal appointments to talk through your hopes, your worries, and what you want your birth to feel like
Continuous support through your birth, with a calm presence, a steady hand, a cold washcloth, a glass of water, and a reminder that you're doing it
Support for your partner, so they feel included and confident instead of left wondering what to do
Help understanding your options, so you can make choices that feel right for your family
3 postpartum visits, each with lactation support, so you have help with latch, milk supply, and feeding plans in those first tender days
Why choose a doula who's also a lactation consultant?
Because birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding aren't separate stories. They're one. When the person who helped you through labor is also trained to help with feeding, you get continuity of care and a familiar face when you need it most.
Investment
Birth Doula Package: $1,500
A $300 non-refundable deposit holds your spot on my calendar. The remaining balance is due by 36 weeks, and you're welcome to pay it in 2 to 3 payments so it's easier to plan for.
Who I serve
I support families throughout Yamhill, Polk, and Marion Counties. Prenatal and postpartum visits can happen in your home or at my clinic in McMinnville.

Birth & Postpartum Doula Support in Yamhill, Polk & Marion Counties
You don't have to figure this out alone.
I'm Kelly, a lactation consultant (IBCLC) and a mama of twelve. I've sat in the quiet moments before a baby arrives, and I've sat in the tender, tired, "am I doing this right?" moments after. Now I'm honored to walk with families through the birth itself, too.
A doula is someone who stays by your side. I'm not there to take over or to tell you what to do. I'm there to help you feel steady, informed, and cared for, whether your birth is at home, in a birth center, or in a hospital, and however it unfolds.
