Larisa Fant

Hello, I’m Starry Sky Doula’s Larisa Fant, a prenatal, birthing, and postnatal doula serving the greater Seattle area and its surrounding counties. I hope to be of service to you in the healthy birth of your child as well as the preparation for and follow-up to that blessed special event. My goal is to make sure you (and your family, be it first time or growing) do not feel alone or incomplete on this journey of motherhood, as I will be sharing the knowledge and tools to personally empower you.

Besides my formal certificated training and ever on-going further education in this specialized field, I am fortunate to have grown-up in a family of strong women who are passionate about all God’s creatures great and small. As an enlightened, nurturing woman, my mother first taught me about the special role and skills of a doula as she had a doula help deliver me and I, in turn, gave birth to my son with a doula’s assistance. As the eldest of four sisters, each in their own right empowered and nurturing (as a cardiac nurse, elementary-school teacher, and beauty/fashion/health expert) and having a supportive husband and appreciative teenage son, I know the importance of a loving family that is well-informed.

As someone who has been mother, daughter, sister, aunt, loyal friend, and caring educator, I will be your personal guide and effective support system through any and all challenges that may arise, be they commonplace to women or unique to you. My mission is to make your giving birth experience (before, during, and after) a happy, healthy, memorable one for all the right reasons. I look forward to meeting you and your family, for with Starry Sky Doula’s Larisa Fant alongside you, you will not have to “wish upon a star” (or wish for anything) as you bring into the world your family’s own special new “star”.
