About me

Hi, I’m Emily! I live in central Oregon with my husband Jaxun and pup Bentley. We were high school sweethearts and got married in 2017. I love coffee, the color purple, tattoos, laughing until my face hurts, and crackling campfires. I'm an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) and Postpartum doula. I have 10+ years of nursing and infant care experience. Previously specializing in Labor and Delivery in Hospital, Birth Centers, and Home Birth settings. I’m also currently a Lactation Consultant student and doula educator. I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself, and will do my best to prioritize your care needs. I stay current on CPR certification and vaccines, prioritizing your child’s safety. I'm deeply passionate about bridging the gaps in care, nourishing, educating, and empowering parents, as they navigate the postpartum period. I look forward to connecting!

Service introduction

Nurture Moon Birth Services is a warm and inclusive doula experience. I support families of all types, who are wanting exceptional and personal support as you welcome new life into the world. As a doula and licensed practical nurse, I feel strongly about creating a nurturing, safe, and inclusive environment during this magical time in your life. The postpartum experience can be joyous and challenging. As a postpartum doula, I help families ease into the transition of having a newborn in their home. I provide physical, emotional, and informational support to help ease your transition into parenthood. During this fourth trimester adjustment, it is my priority to create a safe space, where you have the ability to feel supported, heard, and respected.
