Working with Aidyn was an amazing experience! From our very first meeting, she brought such a warm, calming presence that immediately made us feel supported and confident about our pregnancy and birth journey. Throughout pregnancy, she provided thoughtful guidance, evidence-based information, and emotional reassurance that truly helped us prepare in both body and mind. She always made sure to ask what we wanted to make sure to discuss or go over to ensure all our questions were answered. We ended up having a very short but eventful labor and delivery. Without Aidyn advocating for our needs and wishes and making sure we were comfortable and supported, we would have really struggled with how fast everything was moving and would have felt much more traumatic. Aidyn made sure we were comfortable, had everything we needed (and helped get it for us if we didn't have it). The physical and emotional support she provided during labor and delivery was vital and we are still so thankful that she was there with us. After birth, she continued to check in and offer postpartum support and was ready to help out in any way she could while I was dealing with the onset of postpartum depression and anxiety. She has been helping us navigate these first weeks with care and compassion and we can’t imagine having gone through this journey without her. If you’re looking for a doula who is knowledgeable, kind, and truly dedicated to helping families feel informed and empowered, I cannot recommend Aidyn highly enough! Truly one of the best decisions we made for our pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.

I also offer postpartum services by helping families adjust to life with their new arrival. My goal is to ensure that every family feels supported, informed, and confident as they welcome their little ones. In my free time, you can find me watching the Tennis Channel, listening to my playlist on blast while doing housework, singing, and hopefully playing pickleball soon! And of course spending time with my family. I would be honored to be part of such an intimate time in your life.

Having Pei’s support was invaluable. She took wonderful care of our baby, handled all the baby-related tasks seamlessly, and gave us the gift of rest during an exhausting time. Knowing our baby was in such capable, loving hands was a huge relief. She is attentive, dependable, and truly goes above and beyond. Her passion for babies shines through! We are incredibly thankful for her care and support. We would highly recommend Pei to anyone looking for a postpartum doula or night nanny service!

Hey there! Congratulations on all that is to come. I am very proud to offer both birth and postpartum services. I have always been fascinated with the process of birth and pregnancy, and after having experienced it myself, I found doula work to be intentional and powerful. I believe there is no wrong way to deliver, and no wrong way to mother, as long as the mother has been educated and is fully involved in the decision-making process. As a doula, I bring education, emotional support, and friendship to this journey's exciting yet vulnerable time.

We had a great experience working with Tori as our doula! My wife also had a positive experience with her as a prenatal massage therapist. Tori has a great touch with people and helped us navigate many difficult decisions and situations during my wife’s first pregnancy. Her knowledge and calm demeanor helped us to navigate complications and feel better during this uncertain time. She was also flexible and supportive as our needs changed during the pregnancy. We would definitely recommend Tori to anyone who is looking for a doula.

Hello! My name is Tierra Beaushaw. I am a Certified Labor Doula, Certified Infant Feeding specialist, and a certified prenatal yoga teacher.  After seven years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant in both hospitals and in-home care, I felt a deep calling toward Labor and Delivery nursing—especially after the birth of my first son. While pursuing my studies, I discovered the world of doula support and was inspired by the compassionate, hands-on role doulas play in the birthing experience. Following the birth of my second son, I made the empowering decision to shift paths and become a doula. Today, I combine my clinical background with empathy and intuition to guide families through one of life’s most transformative moments. My passion lies in helping mothers and babies feel safe, supported, and informed. No matter your birth plan or chosen delivery setting, I’ll be by your side—offering heartfelt care every step of the way.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Teresa. I had a complicated C-section and my son was 4 days old when Teresa started working for me. Her kind and thoughtful nature immediately put me at ease and trusted her with my son completely. She went above and beyond to help me and was very resourceful. As a new mother I had so many questions and she was patient with me and answered all my queries. The nights that she was off, she was able to find us another amazing doula to help us. I would definitely hire Teresa again on the future and recommend her to anyone who is a new mother and is navigating motherhood for the first time. Thank you Teresa!

Recent review

I recently reconnected with Sage and she asked me to post a review, since I was the very first birth she ever attended. Sage wasn't a doula when she was there for my kids births, she was just a friend who had given birth before, and who offered to support me when I was young, inexperienced and alone. I had a boyfriend, but they were his first kids too and we were both scared. Between us asking her to be at the birth, and me going into labor the first time, she learned so so much about birth and postpartum and taught me so much. I didn't go to a birth class but I felt way more prepared one she started sharing what she'd learned. When the time came, and I was in labor, I told her and she drove from Atascadero to San Diego, made the 6 hour drive in 5 hours, and was with us for the hardest part of the birth. I still wonder if I could have done it without her help and I really don't think so. Having her there with me was so helpful that I even asked her to be there for my son a few years later, and asked her to go to a friend's birth as well. I'm really glad that she's doing this now, even if it took her 15 years before she decided to do it. I'm so glad we reconnected and I could share this, and I'm so proud to be the very first birth she attended and supported.

Danna was truly incredible. She is not only responsible and attentive, but also has such a calming, supportive presence. During my labor she helped me in so many ways — from emotional support and encouragement to physical comfort, including massages and breathing guidance. I felt safe, cared for, and never alone. Her dedication and kindness made a huge difference in my birth experience. I’m genuinely grateful for everything she did for me, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any expecting mom.

Hi Friends! My name is Marlo Knight and I am a certified postpartum doula and certified newborn care specialist as well as a certified postpartum nutrition specialist. I am located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I love supporting families during the magical and sleep deprived first weeks of their baby's life! I absolutely love what I do and do it with my whole heart. I am always looking to bring a sense of peace and calm to the homes I am invited into and I strive to create a judgement free space for parents to ask questions and express themselves freely. As a mother of 3 and a grandmother I bring with me lots of experience in nurturing little ones and their mamas. I can't wait to get acquainted with you! In my free time I enjoy my volunteer work, cooking (my love language), wine tasting with my best guy, family time with my girls and their families, and naps with my cat.

Our experience with Marlo as our doula was fantastic and a huge help with transition from one to two kids. She supported us with night times for about two months and it was a smooth process and allowed us to get much needed rest at night. Marlo is communicative and reliable. She is a great person to also ask for advice for baby related questions as far as feeding and sleep. Marlo is kind and loves babies and children. :) She is detail oriented and always had notes and information for the hand-off in the mornings. We appreciate Marlo supporting us during this transition with our new baby and would recommend her to anyone looking for doula support. Thank you!
