Our Team
Stefanie Anderson Owner (she / her) RN, BSN Birth Doula Postpartum Doula Childbirth Educator Lactation Consultant phone: 408-835-6368 Stefanie has been working with new and expectant parents since 2013 as a certified birth and postpartum doula and childbirth educator, and began offering lactation support as a breastfeeding counselor in 2013 and as an IBCLC in 2018. She has attended over 75 births at local birthing facilities. She currently works as a lactation consultant at Providence St. Peter Hospital. Her passion for birth work was ignited with the empowering experiences of the VBAC births of her third and fourth children. Her personal experience with various birthing and feeding scenarios, including high-risk pregnancies, cesarean birth, tongue-tie, and other complications ensures she knows first-hand how valuable knowledgeable support is. She believes there is no right way to give birth but that each pregnancy, birth, and baby is unique and should be treated as such. Stefanie is married and a mother of 4. Originally from California, she came to Washington in 2005. While not working with families she enjoys reading, walking outdoors on beautiful PNW trails, and Batdorf & Bronson coffee.
