Birthing Support in the Seattle Area

Welcome, friend!

I am so glad you are here!

Delivering a baby is an empowering and life changing experience that you will remember forever. It is also an incredibly vulnerable one.

Having a doula by your side can bolster your confidence, increase your chances of following your birth plan and improve your level of satisfaction with your birth experience.

Why hire a Doula?

Research from 2017 showed that the best birthing results occurred when the birthing person had continuous labor support.

Results included:

  • 39% decrease in the risk of Cesarean (when not desired)

  • 15% increase in the likelihood of a spontaneous vaginal birth

  • 10% decrease in the use of any medications for pain relief

  • Shorter labors by 41 minutes on average

  • 38% decrease in the baby’s risk of a low five minute Apgar score

  • 31% decrease in the risk of being dissatisfied with the birth experience; mothers’ risk of being dissatisfied with the birth experience was reduced with continuous support provided by a doula or someone in their social network (family or friend), but not hospital staff

Testimonials

  • Kylie is an incredible doula and person and we really hit the jackpot in working with her! She is professional, kind, down to earth and genuinely cares about her work. She made me feel so comfortable to talk with her about anything and she always provided me with resources and knowledge for whatever I had questions about. She checked in frequently to see how I was doing leading up to labor and I always felt supported. She helped to make my labor/delivery feel special by personalizing the room with fairy lights and bringing affirmation cards. Kylie held my hand throughout my labor and got me whatever I needed to feel supported and comforted. I can’t emphasize enough how grateful we feel to have had Kylie with us throughout this entire experience and would recommend her to anyone looking for doula support during their pregnancy/labor. Not only do I feel truly lucky to have had an amazing doula like Kylie but I also feel grateful to have gained a friend! ❤️

  • Working with Kylie for my birth was amazing. I was not sure what to expect going into my first pregnancy, but Kylie helped me to feel supported and informed throughout the process. She was there from when I was admitted to the hospital to several hours after a long labor and c-section. She was so helpful for our emotion needs as well as physical during a trying labor. I would highly recommend Kylie and would happily work with her again.
