About Becky

Hi there, I’m Becky and have been working with new families since 2016 as a doula and parent educator in the Los Angeles, Ca and surrounding communities. I truly believe the support of a new mother starts during pregnancy and through the first year postpartum. I am a first generation Latinx woman and use the pronouns She/Her/Ella. I primarily grew up in Whittier, CA, but spend several years in Nayarit, Mexico. I am married with 3 beautiful children of my own. I hope I can help you plan for the best birth and postpartum period imaginable.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Becky with Birth to Latch has been absolutely amazing. Our experience with her has brought us so much peace, confidence, and excitement as we prepare to welcome our first baby. Going into this pregnancy, we had no real guidance on what to expect during labor and birth. As a first-time father, I honestly wasn’t sure what my role would be or how I could best support my wife. After attending Becky’s Comfort Measures class, everything changed. I walked away with a clear understanding of my role as a husband and father during labor, along with practical tools and the confidence to be the support my wife deserves. What makes Becky so special is her warmth and kindness. She creates such a safe, welcoming environment that it genuinely feels like you’re learning from a trusted family member rather than someone you just met. She has a gift for making everyone feel comfortable, heard, and empowered. I especially appreciate that Becky doesn’t just focus on preparing moms she places just as much importance on educating and empowering the birth partner. That made a huge difference for us and strengthened our confidence as a team going into this life-changing experience. If you’re looking for a doula who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly invested in helping both parents feel prepared, I cannot recommend Becky and Birth to Latch enough. We are incredibly grateful to have her as part of our birth journey.

Jade was an amazing doula for our family. She is calm, compassionate and very hands on in supporting all things birth and post partum. I could not have gotten through my unmedicated birth without her. She guided me through positions and provided counter pressure to progress labor and relieve pain. She supported us postpartum as well, even connecting with our older daughter to help her feel special during the big transition. Thank you Jade!!

I cannot recommend Becky highly enough! From our very first meeting, she brought a level of warmth and personal care that instantly put me at ease. She didn't just feel like a support person; she felt like a trusted friend who truly had my back. Throughout my labor her presence was incredibly grounding. She was intuitive to my needs before I even had to ask, offering both emotional reassurance and practical comfort. If you are looking for a doula who is deeply compassionate, attentive, and genuinely invested in your well-being, Becky is the absolute best.
