Find a Night Nanny Near Me in Medford, OR

Hello! I'm Andrea. I'm Oregon grown and after 6 years away, my husband and I have moved back to The Rogue Valley and I'm so excited to serve families here! I'm blessed with a large family and have the privilege of loving and doting on close to 30 nieces, nephews and other little ones. I've always been around babies, seen my loved ones go through pregnancies and admired the process, but the doula seed was planted after getting to be more directly involved with one of my goddaughter's entrances into the world in 2020. I fell in love with the strength, the ebb and flow, the literal labor of love. I also saw how scary the unknowns and certain aspects of the journey can be and I knew I wanted to help in some way. After a bit of research, I found what I want to be when I grow up! A doula! I started studying with Birth Arts International and the rest is history. In 2022 I decided to continue my education as a postnatal doula through Women’s Choice Perinatal. Along my doula journey I’ve gotten to build community with so many amazing birth workers and joined The Reno Doula Co-op in 2023. I've worked in caregiving capacities most of my adult life and feel I'm exactly where I need to be. I believe everyone deserves a compassionate and loving birth experience. My goal is to be accessible and reach as many people as possible to help your birth experience be the best it can be through you-centric care and support. Every person embarking on childbirth deserves to have someone in their corner, there for them no matter what, to guide and assist them in making educated choices about their pregnancy, birth experience and parenthood, and to remind them that they can trust the strength of their bodies and minds during this time. As a doula, I aim to bring compassionate, client-centered care and remind every client how empowered they are! Outside of birth work, you can find me spending time with family, playing with the littles, grabbing coffee and walking the river with friends, or traveling whenever and wherever I can. I’m also a huge theater geek (you should see the one-man Hamilton show I put on in my car) and Trekky nerd. I enjoy genuine honest connection and could talk for hours about what makes a person light up.

Hi! I live in Springfield Oregon and I’m a mom of 4 and grandma of 2. I’ve wanted to be a doula since before I even knew the name of what the job was. I had assumed you needed a degree and/or medical training to be a birth advocate and as soon I found out exactly how to become a doula I did! I completed my doula and postpartum training in April 2024 through SMC Doulas in Portland and it was a wonderful experience! I was a 20 year old single mom when I had my oldest daughter and I birthed alone, just myself, the nurse and my dr and it was an experience that I never wanted to repeat or have anyone I knew have. I will support you, advocate with you for your needs and desires and be there as little or as much as you need. I will also be there for you postpartum holding your baby so you can shower, washing laundry, doing dishes, making meals, you tell me what you need and I can accommodate you. I can meet with you virtually over zoom or in person. My goal is to keep my doula business small and basically be on call when you need me taking only a couple clients at a time. If you wake up at 3am and need to talk I can accommodate that. Being pregnant, giving birth, having a newborn and being a brand new parent all can be anxiety producing and at the same the happiest times of your life! I understand that completely!!

I live in rural Northern California & Mom of 3. I became a Doula with the goal to help families overcome the fear of birth, have access to Resources and go on to have more positive and affirming birth experiences.

As the owner of Bend Birth and Baby, I humbly place myself in a position of connecting families with the right doula for them in Central Oregon. We are a full spectrum agency, and are here out of immense love of families and awe at the journey of parenthood.
