DoulaThe data behind every birth we attend.
Updated quarterly · All births 2014–2026
No credit card · No commitment · 30-minute video call
Present at every birth
The same midwife who sees you at 28 weeks holds your hand at 40.
Every visit. Every test.
Every minute explained.
We show you exactly what happens at each stage of care — what tests are run, who is in the room, and what you walk away with. Nothing lives behind a clipboard.

Minute-by-minute.
This is what the average OB office cannot offer. Continuous presence. No shift changes. The same midwife from first contraction to first breath.
First call received
You call the direct line. Your midwife answers — not a service, not a voicemail.
Phone triage
Contraction frequency, intensity, and duration assessed. You are heard, not triaged by checklist.
Midwife arrives
Median arrival time from call. Bag contains everything needed for birth at home or transfer.
Continuous presence begins
Your midwife does not leave. No shift changes. No handoffs. The same face for the whole labor.
Second midwife joins
A second certified nurse-midwife arrives for delivery. Two sets of trained hands, every time.
Immediate skin-to-skin facilitated
Golden hour protected. Lights dimmed on request. No unnecessary interruptions in the first hour.
Postpartum stabilization
Newborn exam, placenta review, bleeding assessment, first latch support — all before we leave.
Home visit scheduled
We come to you the next day. Weight check, feeding, your recovery — all in your own space.
Direct line. No answering service.
Everything included.
Nothing hidden.

Three families.
Three different reasons they called.
Every birth is different. Every client finds us a different way. The one thing that doesn't change: the midwife who was there for the first visit is there when the baby arrives.
"At 3 AM my water broke and I called. She answered on the second ring. I didn't realize how much that would matter until it did."
Priya Nair
First birth, home delivery, Toronto-born, lives in Portland OR
"My first birth was a blur of strangers. My second birth, I knew every single person in the room. That changed everything."
Danielle Okonkwo
Second birth, birth center, switched from OB at 30 weeks
"I'm the partner. I searched at midnight and found this page. The numbers convinced me. The midwife convinced her. We never looked back."
Marcus Webb
Partner, first birth, hospital room — lights dimmed, music on
