​birth & postpartum support

​At North Cascade Doulas we understand how intimate birth and the postpartum period are. We take the information you learned in your local birthing class and cater it to your needs. With our labor and postpartum support, you will have a doula who works hard to understand your priorities for your birth. We are committed to seeing that all of your needs are acknowledged and valued through the entirety of your pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. 

​We aim to understand the specific details that matter to you and how to best prepare for an experience that feels meaningful and respectful to your family.

childbirth education

Pregnancy is like a magnet. Everyone suddenly wants to share their advice and opinions around how to naturally induce labor, how to know if you’re going to have a boy or a girl and that’s only the tip of the iceberg. 

When you take a birth class with one of our collective doulas you will get current, evidence based information, relevant to our corner of the PNW, Bellingham and Skagit Valley without the opinions.

placenta encapsulation

At North Cascade Doulas, we understand the complexities of this vital organ as it relates to you and your newborn. After encapsulation, your placenta then provides you with just what you need to recover from giving birth. 

Our process: 

• Encapsulation will happen in your home and will never leave your possession.
• We strictly follow bloodborne pathogen protocol and only encapsulate with the safest methods.
• A transport kit will be utilized with explicit instructions, eliminating all guesswork.
• We leave no room for doubt when evaluating the quality of your final product.
• Doulas providing this service to you in our collective will have training in the highest safety standards in the industry to give you piece of mind that they are qualified to provide this service to you. ​
