Portland, OR & surrounding areas

So many things can get in the way of you having the best outcome for your birth

self-doubt, worry, not knowing what you don’t know or what you need to know,

unhelpful family, providers who don’t care about you as an individual,

not trusting your body or the process of birth

you deserve a birth with no regrets

and to know how amazing and powerful you are

i care about you.

I care about your birth story.

i want you to look back with satisfaction on the birth of your baby.

Hello & welcome!!

My name is Tanya and I’m a birth worker

I work as a doula, photographer and massage therapist, serving Portland & surrounding cities. I’ve been attending births since 2009.

I want you to have a birth where your desires for your body and your baby are respected and heard.

In the days after your birth, while you’re holding your beautiful baby, I want you to look back on this process knowing you made the best choices you could and had the best possible outcome with my guidance.

No matter where or how you your birth story unfolds, I want you to feel held, supported, loved, and like an incredibly beautiful badass.

“Tanya is an amazing birthing coach and doula. Her calm and collected presence along with her emotional and physical support was much needed during my long labor. We are so thankful that we chose her to be there for us when we welcomed our daughter into the world.” - Nicole
