I'm Sofia Washburn, a birth and postpartum doula currently completing certification with DONA International. I am passionate about supporting women in their journeys through motherhood. As a mother of two, I know first-hand how challenging those first few years especially can be. I want to help you find strength and confidence through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum and feel empowered to find the best version of yourself as a mother. I hope that this period of your life becomes rich, fulfilling and transformational. I was born and raised in Boise, Idaho and moved to Utah to attend BYU. After graduating in political science, I began my career working in the U.S. Senate in Washington, D.C. for several years before moving back to Utah and pausing work shortly before my first child was born. Through the pregnancies and births of my two children, I have developed a great interest in supporting other moms during this stage of life, particularly through food. With formal training in the culinary arts, I believe that nourishment is an essential component of this important time in a woman's life. I aim to provide comforting, nutritious food as part of my services to support mama and give you the strength you need to care for your baby. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking and trying new restaurants, playing the piano, reading, exercising, and traveling.
A warm, nourishing meal after delivery can help your recovery and bring comfort after labor and birth. I will prepare and deliver food for two any time day or night (even 3am!) once you are settled.
