Thoughtful, Personal Care Fitting Each Family’s Needs

I created The Birth Era Co. because pregnancy and birth aren’t just clinical events — they are the most tender, memorable transitions of your entire life.

When you invite a doula into your home and birth room, you shouldn't feel like you hired a distant contractor. You deserve a familiar presence who listens without judgment, softens fear with physiological knowledge, protects your partner from feeling overwhelmed, and stays right beside you until your baby is warm in your arms.

From homestead herbal remedies to quiet counterpressure at 3:00 AM, my whole heart is dedicated to protecting the peace of your birth room across Tri-Cities.

An Immediate Exhale

No clinical pressure, no rigid expectations. From our first cup of tea, you can ask anything freely and rest in knowing your choices will always be honored.

Never Replacing Your Partner

I stand beside your partner, guiding them with confidence and simple techniques so they feel deeply connected, never sidelined or helpless.

Unrushed 24/7 Continuity

On-call 24/7 from 37 weeks onward. When your labor starts, I arrive and stay until you are tucked into bed, nourished, and calm.

Flexible Payment Plans

I accept payment plans with 25% due (nonrefundable) at time of booking. Based on date of signing, due date, and agreeable contract.

Labor Support & Rest Breaks

My goal is to remain with you through labor, birth, and the immediate postpartum period, without a fixed hourly cutoff. I take every reasonable measure to prepare for extended labors and minimize the need for backup relief, but sometimes rest is necessary to continue providing attentive care. If a longer rest period is needed, an arranged backup doula can provide support through a coordinated handoff at no additional cost to your family.

The Experience

What You Can Expect Working Together

Personalized prenatal preparation, continuous labor attendance, and tender, practical postpartum recovery.

Step One

Preparation that feels personal

We’ll talk through your questions, birth preferences, comfort measures, and the kind of support you want from your birth team. Your first prenatal visit is in person, with later visits available in person or virtually.

Step Two

A familiar presence during birth

I’m on call for urgent labor support from 37–42 weeks and provide in-person support through labor and birth. I’ll help you use comfort techniques, stay grounded, and communicate your preferences with your care team.

Step Three

Care after your baby arrives

Our postpartum visits give you space to process your birth, ask questions, rest, and adjust to life with your baby. The number and length of visits depend on the package you choose.

“

After hours of labor with my first baby, I ended up needing an emergency C-section. Recovery was overwhelming, especially while trying to navigate breastfeeding as a first-time mom.

Rebecca was there for me during that postpartum period, helping me through breastfeeding challenges, preparing meals, and making sure I had the support I needed while recovering and adjusting to motherhood.

She has a way of making you feel comfortable, supported, and cared for without judgment. It was such a relief having someone I trusted who understood what I was going through.

Now that I’m expecting my second baby, I have already secured my due date for her services. Having someone you can count on during such a vulnerable time makes all the difference.

Verified Client Reflection
Rooted in the Soil & Hearth

From the Homestead to the Birth Sanctuary

Care that honors the rhythm of nature, nourishing foods, and botanical healing for mother and baby.

On our 5-acre family homestead, we raise animals, grow produce, and craft clean, natural remedies. As an herbalist, homesteader, and doula, I integrate this deep respect for natural nourishment into every stage of care — from hand-crafted tallow skincare, soothing nipple balms, and botanical butt pastes to warm postpartum infusions and preconception herbs.

Looking ahead: Beyond doula and placenta care, my ultimate calling is becoming a licensed Midwife and building a Tri-Cities community garden with classes on homesteading, gardening, and natural family wellness.
