Hi, my name is Ghada. I am a doula serving families in Benton county. I love helping people and being like a mom to them. I enjoy working with all families and speaking Arabic allows me to help other Arabic speaking women and families.

Yesenia

Hi, my name is Yesenia and I love being a doula. I dream of a day when I can work full time as a doula serving families in Linn, Benton, Lincoln, Lane, Marion, and Polk counties. I am in the process of becoming a qualified medical interpreter so that I can expand the services that I offer to the Spanish speaking families that I serve. I love being present when a baby is born and helping families communicate with medical staff. My clients have shared that they feel well supported and pampered by having me as their doula.

Alyx

Hello! My name is Alyx. I am a birth and postpartum Doula serving Lane, Linn, Benton, and Polk counties. I have three daughters of my own and have experienced birth in a hospital, a birth center, and my home. I have a huge amount of appreciation for different birth spaces and how personal they are to every woman. I am a firm believer in the magic of childbirth. This is a special time for new life, but it is also a celebration between a birthing person and their partner. My goal is to assist in the magic making to the best of my ability.

When Jasmine is not at a birth, you can find her snuggled up in a coffee shop with a book, on a trail with her dog or in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes with her family.

Maryanne

The birth of a child is something we often revisit over and over again in our heads. It is an honor to work with women, preparing them for this miraculous journey. Birth matters. How women are treated before, during and after birth matters. I serve my clients to the best of my ability, guiding them in the direction they chose. Watching them thrive and meet their goals brings me so much joy. I am your biggest cheerleader!
