Hi! I'm Robyn.
I offer Birth Doula Services to families in Seattle, Renton and the Puget Sound area.
I provide continuous emotional, informational, and physical support before and during labor, as well as shortly after birth. As a Doula I am trained to be YOUR advocate. My goal is to facilitate the healthiest and most satisfying birth experience possible for you and your family. I vow to help keep this experience sacred.
As a birth doula, I can help answer any questions that may help you gain clarity on your desires for your birth plan. I'm also available to support you and your partner in hard decision making (if needed).

3 Pre- natal appointments
The intention of these appointments is #1 - for me to get to know you - so that I can be of better service to you at your birth and beyond.
#2 to clarify your birth preferences by hearing questions and learning concerns!
#3 to practice pain management movements and breathwork as well as prepping you for postpartum time.
Labor and Birth Support
I will be on call for you starting 2 weeks before your "due date" and 2 weeks after. This means I will be less than an hour away, always available by phone, no matter what time of day.
Once Labor begins, you let me know. I will come to your house, the birth center OR the hospital ( wherever YOU CHOOSE to give birth.
During labor, I am there to support you in any way you need (physically, emotionally, mentally). I'll also be there advocating for your birth preferences to any medical staff.
After your birth, I'll be with you a few more hours to help with breast feeding, care, and photos if desired.
Post- Partum Visits
You and I will schedule 2 post partum visits ahead of time. During these sessions, I am at your service in whatever way you need me to be.
I will help check on your breastfeeding journey, bring you warm meals and be there as an ear to listen while you process your birth and new found role.
The post-partum period is such a crucial time that demands support. I want to provide as much nurturing compassion, warmth and love as I can, while helping you adjust to this new time in your life.
