Being a doula is a true convergence path for me as I have always been passionate about supporting women and their families. Bringing a new baby into the world is a vulnerable time, and it is my honor to support and encourage your family as you integrate home together!
LET'S CONNECT
Jordyn Franklin is a day and night time postpartum doula supporting new and growing families.
My official training in postpartum care has been through DONA International at Bastyr University. I have also been “trained” by my own 4 children that I’ve spent the last decade birthing, nursing, and raising. :). Caring for children has always been apart of my life. I have twin sisters 10 years younger than me that I practiced “momming”, and I was a nanny for years through college and young adulthood before marrying and having my own kids. I sort of stumbled upon this work through a series of divine events, but it feels as if my whole life had prepared me for doula work.
Postpartum recovery, bonding with baby, and integrating as a family is a joyful yet very vulnerable time. My hope is to create a peaceful, safe, and encouraging space as I support you through your recovery and getting to know your new baby. I believe that prioritizing holistic care and support can aid in recovery and overall satisfaction of the “4th trimester”. I love providing families with education, information, and to model safe newborn care so that you can make the best decisions you can as the parent(s) of your child! By the end of our time together, my hope is that you won’t be viewing me as the best with your baby, but that YOU feel confident in your ability and role in parenting your child!
Jordyn was helpful. As the first time parents, we were so stressed out and nervous. Jordyn helped us through the first 2 nights after returning home from the hospital. Thanks to her help, we were able to get some sleep and to recover quickly.

Hiring Jordyn was a great decision for our postpartum period. She was knowledgeable, patient, and supportive. Her expertise in newborn care and breastfeeding was invaluable, and she always made us feel comfortable and at ease. She provided practical assistance with tasks like diaper changes and feeding as well as validation and emotional support. We are grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to any new parents.

Our night doula Jordyn was professional, helpful and knowledgeable. We so enjoyed having her as a support for us as first time parents. My husband and I were also so grateful to have gotten a few much needed nights of rest after our first newborn arrived! I can confidently recommend Expecting Joy doula services.
