Silver Beach Birth Services offers
doula services for hire. As your
doula, it is my focus to provide
physical, educational, and emotional
support for you and your partner.
The goal is to work together for a
safe and empowering prenatal, labor,
birth, and postpartum experience.

Silver Beach Birth Services

Hi! My name is Renée! I was born, raised, and
still live in Kodiak, Alaska. Being with my family
is my favorite thing. My kids are 8, 11, and 16. I
also love riding my bike, gardening, hiking
mountains, beading earrings, and cooking on a
beach fire. All of those things are even better
when my kids and dog are with me.

I am currently close to my doula certification
through Birth Arts International. Birth is my
passion. Supporting people throughout their
birthing journey fills my heart.

“Asking your partner to be your sole guide through labor is like asking
them to lead the way on a climb of Mt Everest. They may be smart and
trustworthy, you may love them but in the Himalayas you’d both be a lot
better off with a Sherpa!” – Pam England
