Postpartum Doula Support
When your baby arrives would you like:
more time to bond with your baby
more sleep
more energy, quicker recovery
more confidence and skills to meet your baby’s needs
more money
an easier breastfeeding experience
less doctor visits
less stress
less crying (for mom and baby)
less pain
As the area’s only Certified Postpartum Doula and Certified Lactation Educator I make it my business to be informed so you get the information, tips and skills you need without wasting time and energy. Spend time with your baby instead of wading through the internet or endless books not tailored to your needs. Many books market their way as the only way ignoring that we are all individuals. Information found on the internet ranges from evidence-based best care for babies to unfounded popular beliefs to down-right dangerous. With your parenting goals as my guide I give you seamless care, reliable resources, safe options, and solutions that will work for your unique family.
Accomplish your breastfeeding goals! I give parents the support they need to avoid common issues that can lead to pain and early weaning. Learn tips, tricks and comfortable breastfeeding positions so you can rest. I would love to help you have the wonderful breastfeeding experience you want!
I’ll help you avoid products that don’t work and products you won’t use, putting money in your pocket. I love to teach families about baby massage, baby wearing and baby signs saving you money on expensive classes. I can also help the big brother or sister in your growing family with sibling adjustment.
When you hire me as your doula you get all this and healthy snack/light meal preparation, laundry help, light housekeeping, and mother-baby care so you can get some much needed rest, a shower or a break. I’m a cook, a baby expert, a laundry service, a postpartum comfort, a housekeeper, a pampering expert, a shopper, a confidant, a baby product expert or whatever you need!
Henna Belly Designs & Celebrations
Henna is a wonderful way to treasure and cherish your pregnancy. Being adorned with henna is a restful and joyous event. Henna celebrates the unique shape of a full belly and offers something to look forward to in late pregnancy. You will also enjoy watching your design darken in the few days after your adornment. As your design fades it will come as a reminder that each day your baby is nearer to being in your arms. Call 509-496-3526 with questions or to schedule your belly adornment or baby shower/blessingway. I also do parties for girl’s night, birthday’s and other events.
About Xylina
I’ve always had a passion for people and education. After the hospital birth of my daughter where my husband and I happened to hire a doula, I realized the gift we had found. I knew more families needed to know that birth, postpartum and breastfeeding can be easier and more enjoyable! The support, information and care we received resulted in an empowering, life-changing experience that far surpassed my expectations. Since then, I have focused on helping childbearing families by providing a variety of pregnancy, childbirth and newborn services.
I love supporting families from all walks of life! It’s not about natural birth vs. epidural, it’s about knowing your options. There are so many choices when it pregnancy birth and beyond. I can assist you in gathering information and resources saving you time, money and energy. I want you to have reliable information so you can make the best decisions for your family and unique situation. I am here to support you!
I am a DONA International Certified Birth Doula and the areas only Certified Postpartum Doula. I am a Certified Lactation Educator and host a mom’s support group at my office. I am also a Certified HypnoBirthing Practitioner. I am also thrilled to be a leader of Bloom Spokane and I look forward to continuing to grow a better birth community.
Testimonials
“”Xylina, I want to thank you so much for all your help as both a birth doula and a postpartum doula. You always had such a positive “can do” attitude and were creative in suggesting new ways to try to make something work. You have such a generous and nurturing spirit. It was obvious that you are very knowledgeable about pregnancy, birth and newborns. You handled my labor and birth with a calmness, professionalism and positive energy that was beneficial to everybody involved. And your postpartum help was invaluable in helping us work through some serious breastfeeding challenges. Thank you again!”

“When I was pregnant with my second baby I really wanted a better birth experience. I took Xylina’s HypnoBirthing class and absolutely got what I wanted!!! I had a wonderful, easy birth and will always have great memories of that special day! Plus, HypnoBirthing helped breastfeeding go more smoothly! I’m still using what I learned! It was so worth it!” –Ruth
“Xylina, thank you so much for your guidance and support both before and after the birth of our daughter. Your assistance made all the difference in helping Maddie and I establish a successful breastfeeding relationship, but beyond that, you’ve gone the extra mile in helping our little family and we are so grateful for you. Thank you!!”
