Embracing the magic of birth
Hello & Welcome!
Hi, there! I’m Lauren and I’m so happy you are here! I am passionate about empowering families in the Snohomish County area. Being a doula is a combination of all my favorite things: education (teaching & learning), babies, serving others & coffee. Okay, so coffee has nothing to do with birth, but I do love to meet clients for coffee to get to know one another. You and your doula should vibe-this is why I offer a complimentary consultation (video call, phone call or in-person coffee chat). I want YOU to feel completely confident that we would make a great team in & out of the delivery room.
A doula is a professional labor assistant who provides (non-medical) physical, informational and emotional support to you and your partner during pregnancy, labor and the early postpartum period.
Every birth deserves support! Choosing the right doula is an important step in completing your support team. Evidence shows that a doula’s presence decreases the need for interventions and increases the chances of an overall positive birthing experience. I support families wherever they choose to birth, home, hospital or birthing center. I support medicated, unmedicated & cesarean births. Wherever and however, you choose to give birth-I’m there!

A little more about me…
Before becoming a birth doula, I taught first grade for 9 years. I’ve always enjoyed education, working with families and children. After having my 3 babies I learned how amazing pregnancy and birth are!
As a mom of three, I experienced three different births that ultimately led me towards becoming a doula myself. All three of my birth experiences were beautiful but with my third I wanted to take control of my birth story.
I had my son at a birth center (after two previous births at hospital with an epidural) with doula support and learned quickly what a valuable role a doula plays on your birth team. My personal birth stories taught me that you can't control everything that happens in pregnancy and labor, but you can have a profoundly positive experience if you feel seen, heard, educated and empowered. Something I am dedicated to providing all the families I support.
Are you looking for calming breathing and positioning techniques? I’ve got the tools for you! Have you had a traumatic birthing experience & are looking for support, advocacy and empowerment? I will be there for you!
Client Review’s
“Lauren was such a rock for me during the two days I was in labor. Her calming energy and support was EVERYTHING that I needed. I am truly grateful she was a part of my birth experience.”
