The Little Bird Doula
Meet your Doula
Hi there! I’m Aja (Asia). I serve as a birth and postpartum doula to the Grant County, WA area. I am a mother of two beautiful littles, wife to my amazing husband Chandler, and fur mom to our pups Cope and Macie. The city of Ephrata is our home, where my husband was born and raised. Small town living - nothin’ quite like it!
I’m excited you’re here! I believe that each family knows the best choices for themselves. From pregnancy to birth to postpartum, you deserve the best support in making those choices. My love for birth work started early on when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter, right before the pandemic hit. It broke my heart as I watched those close to me give birth without a support person for themselves or their spouse. Every birth demands support and deserves celebration - medicated, unmedicated, vaginal, cesarean, etc. I made it my mission from that point to support pregnant mamas close to me, in any capacity. The season of life we’re currently in has allowed me to pursue my passion of babies, so here we are! I am blessed to have a supportive family who understands the crazy schedule of expecting mamas, and grateful for all of you for trusting me with such a sacred time.
If you find yourself here by accident or have searched for me with purpose, I am so thankful you’re taking the time to explore my little corner of the internet! Hiring a doula is no small step, and you considering me to be yours is an honor, so thank you! My job is to ensure you have the birth YOU deserve and desire, guiding you to feel empowered, safe, strong, and capable of bringing your Little Bird earth-side.
I can’t wait for our journey together, so let’s get started!
