Hey There

Jordan Monir (she/her) is a queer Postpartum Doula, Newborn and Family Photographer, and Infant and Family Sleep Specialist in Portland, Oregon. Jordan created Bun and Bundle as a way to combine her passions of supporting families and capturing their magical moments along the way. 

My Story

I started this journey by studying photography. I have been drawn to photography for most of my life and I have always loved how it can uniquely memorialize the big moments. Because of this passion, I earned a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Photography from The Art Institute of Atlanta, and I have nearly 15 years of experience photographing weddings and families. 

 

Along the way, I realized another interest of mine is working with families and children. I have worked as a professional nanny for 10 years, which gives me a unique understanding when communicating with kids of many ages. I find this to be so helpful during family photography sessions, as well as when working closely with families in a support role. I have learned so much about how special it is for a family to let you into their home. It has given me the opportunity to connect deeply with so many families.

 

I was drawn more into the birth world when I realized that the perinatal time is when a family is the most vulnerable and in need of support. I completed my fertility, birth, and postpartum doula training and I felt uniquely drawn to help families in the postpartum period, so that has been my main focus ever since. 

In my experience, it became clear that a massive struggle for new families is how to get enough sleep with a newborn. I really wanted to be able to provide as much support as possible for this particular experience so I completed the Infant and Family Sleep Specialist certification through Bebo Mia. This course is taught by neuroscientist, Greer Kirshenbaum Ph.D. The families I have supported through sleep struggles have found the information and support to be so valuable, and I am very excited to continue to bring the tools I have learned into my practice of supporting families. 

When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time at home with my wife and our cat. I also find it nice to get outside and explore everything that the Pacific Northwest has to offer.

 

Things I love: iced coffee, jasmine tea, salty snacks, down time, board games, going for walks, rainy days, a good hot tub soak, and spending time with friends, family, and my favorite kids.
