Erin’s Approach to Doula Work

The postpartum phase is profoundly sacred, and Erin is always honored to be welcomed into each family's home during this meaningful time. Having grown up with a mother who operated a daycare from their home, Erin developed a passion for helping others and supporting families from a young age.

Her approach combines intuition with evidence-based information, which motivated her to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Youth & Family Psychology. Recognizing her natural talent for working with families, this academic pursuit deepened her understanding of the unique dynamics within each family. It also shaped her commitment to providing judgment-free postpartum care and emphasizing the importance of nurturing the entire family during this significant period.

Before fully dedicating herself to postpartum work, Erin spent seven years as a professional nanny, which solidified her love for working with families. This experience enhanced her ability to intuitively assess needs, collaborate with parents, and approach every family unit with love, respect, and a grateful heart. Her presence exudes peace and calm, with a remarkable talent for finding joy and lightness in the many aspects of postpartum care.

Erin’s Background

Originally from Anchorage, Alaska, Erin has called the Pacific Northwest home since she was 18. She is a proud member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community and shares her life with her partner, a scruffy dog, a pac-man frog, two tarantulas, and a ancient box turtle. In her free time, she enjoys attending live music events, cooking and experimenting with new recipes, spending time outdoors, and diving into two books at once.
