KATHRYN KING, CD(DONA)

​Hi, I'm Kathryn! I have been working with families as a birth doula in the Corvallis area since 2014, and became DONA certified in 2015. In 2018 I started working with the Community Doula Program to improve birth outcomes for at-risk populations who otherwise couldn't afford doula care. I am also a certified Traditional Health Worker doula with the state of Oregon and a member of the MidValley Doula Network. 

Before becoming a doula I earned a bachelor’s degree with a focus on Intercultural Communication. This education has created in me an honor and respect for whatever birth beliefs, practices, and traditions my clients hold sacred. It has also provided me with a valuable skill set for communicating with clients, being in tune with non-verbal cues, and a leg up when it comes to interprofessional communication. 

The majority of the births I attend are in hospitals, but I love attending out of hospital births as well! I have experience caring for families who have had a variety of different births, including: water births, unmedicated, planned epidurals, medical inductions, C-sections and VBAC.

​The power of a loving and spiritual passage into this world for your little one is priceless and something I hold in high regard. I strongly believe in a mother’s primal ability to labor and give birth and am in awe of the mind/body connection that instinctively tells a mother what she needs to do during labor.

I will give you my constant and full attention, staying in-tune with your needs as well as being attentive to your support people. Giving birth is an empowering passage, and everyone deserves to have a positive birth experience. My desire is to use my experience and knowledge to ensure that every family walks away with positive memories of this major life event.
