About Blessed Beginnings
Doula Care
I believe birth is not just a physical event - it’s a sacred, life-changing moment that shapes families for years to come. Every woman deserves to feel safe, respected, and deeply supported during her pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.
Hi, I’m Ashley, a doula serving families in Greater Spokane and North Idaho. My calling into birth work grew from a deep desire to walk alongside women in one of the most vulnerable and transformative times of life. As a Christian, I see each mother and baby as uniquely created and worthy of tender care, but I joyfully serve families of all faiths and backgrounds. My approach blends compassionate presence, evidence-based guidance, and an unwavering belief that you deserve to feel empowered in every decision you make for your body and your baby.
My own experiences of pregnancy and motherhood showed me how much difference it makes to have someone in your corner - someone who listens without judgment, holds space for your emotions, and supports the choices that feel right for you. Whether you envision a quiet home birth, a hospital delivery, or something in between, my goal is to help you feel informed, confident, and never alone.
