Find a Doula Near Me in Brentwood, CA

I have always been passionate about doing work that provides deep, meaningful support. After years of working as a nanny, and my own experience in becoming a mother, I found the support for new parents to be nearly non-existent. When my kids were born I felt very unprepared and alone. I became a doula because I know how hard postpartum is. I know how it feels to be exhausted, overwhelmed, and unsure of yourself as a new parent. I also know it doesn't have to feel that way. My business was brought to life because of my passion for helping new families not just survive those early postpartum days and weeks, but to thrive. You don't need to do this alone. As a new parent, you deserve as much nurturing care and community as your baby. I want parents everywhere to flourish during postpartum. You deserve to be heard, cared for, and allowed to rest. Being able to provide non-judgmental support, warmth, and ease some of the stress of those early days of parenthood is truly my passion and a dream come true. When I'm not caring for amazing families you'll find me enjoying my kids, our two cats, reading, and gardening.

Hi! My name is Evelin Souza, and I am a Certified Postpartum Doula serving Walnut Creek and surrounding East Bay communities. I have been supporting mothers and newborns since becoming certified in 2021. Over the years, I have had the privilege of caring for many families and newborns, especially through overnight support, and I can provide excellent professional references. I would describe myself as calm, patient, nurturing, respectful, flexible, and professional. I believe every family is unique, so I always take the time to understand what is important to each parent and adapt my support to their individual needs, preferences, and parenting choices. I provide judgment-free support and want parents to feel comfortable and supported in my presence. During overnight care, my goal is to create a calm and peaceful environment where parents can rest and recover while knowing their baby is being cared for with love and attention. I have extensive experience with newborn care, feeding support, bottle feeding, soothing, diapering, burping, newborn cues, and helping parents better understand their baby’s needs and feel more confident as they navigate the newborn stage. I also support breastfeeding mothers within my scope as a postpartum doula while fully respecting every family’s feeding choices. I believe caring for the mother is just as important as caring for the baby. I am a good listener and provide a safe and compassionate space for mothers to talk, feel heard, and feel supported during the emotional transition into motherhood. When something is beyond my scope, I encourage families to connect with the appropriate professional support. I am also a Certified Massage Therapist specializing in lymphatic drainage, which has given me an even deeper appreciation for postpartum recovery and caring for mothers as a whole. Above all, I want the families I support to feel safe, respected, cared for, and more rested.

My philosophy is rooted in holistic care; recognizing the physical, emotional, and relational needs of each family member. I believe that when parents are supported with compassion and knowledge, they are better able to thrive, bond with their baby, and step into their role with confidence.
