Find Birth Doula Jobs in California

I am looking to have a home birth. This is my first full term pregnancy so i’m looking on guidance on how to prepare myself. I would like to see if there are any payment plan options. It is only my husband who works so we are looking for flexibility. I want an unmedicated birth and have been wanting to be in the comfort of my own home. After experiencing miscarriage, being in a hospital setting is not something i really want.

I am a first-time mom, my baby girl is due 11/1/2026. I plan on giving birth at Kaiser Permanente in Santa Rosa, CA and will be using my Kaiser insurance to pay for doula services. I am looking for birth support and postpartum support, and of course am open to prenatal support as well! I need knowledge and assistance with creating a birth plan, as this far I only know that I will be having a vaginal birth and would like an epidural, but am not educated on anything else, really. I will be primarily breastfeeding and pumping when necessary.

hospital, the budget is s low as possible, dont have an exact birth plan right now

I plan to give birth at the Kaiser Baldwin Park hospital (Los Angeles county). I am looking for care that is fully covered by my Kaiser insurance. My birth plan is still in work, but I would generally am ideally looking for a physiological/ low-intervention birth. I value an evidence-based approach and someone who is highly collaborative with hospital nursing staff, so experience at Kaiser Baldwin Park would be a big plus. During birth, I will respond better to a calm,and grounded presence but someone who will still be firm and supportive. For postpartum care, I am especially looking for newborn care support and lactation support.

I am planning to give birth in a hospital and am looking for a certified doula who accepts or is familiar with TRICARE Prime coverage. I'm not sure what to expect regarding the cost, so I am hoping to find someone whose services are covered by TRICARE or eligible for reimbursement. I am due on November 20, 2026. My birth plan is to try a low-dose epidural at first, with the option to increase it if needed. My goal is to have the best pain relief possible while maintaining safety for me and my baby. I prefer to avoid Pitocin unless it is medically necessary. I would also like to avoid giving birth flat on my back if possible and would prefer to labor and deliver in side-lying or other upright, supported positions as appropriate. During labor, I would like to use comfort measures such as a birth ball, peanut ball, and squat bar, and I prefer intermittent fetal monitoring if it is safe for me and my baby. After birth, I would like delayed cord clamping, to leave the vernix on my baby rather than wiping it off immediately, and to have uninterrupted skin-to-skin contact with either me or the baby's father for about the first hour before routine newborn assessments, provided my baby is healthy and does not require urgent medical care. I would prefer to delay the hospital bath and decline routine eye ointment unless it is medically necessary or required. I understand that my birth preferences may need to change if there is a medical concern for me or my baby. I am looking for a certified doula with at least 10 years of experience supporting hospital births. I am 28 years old, this is my first pregnancy, and I plan to breastfeed if possible but am open to supplementing with formula if medically necessary. I would also appreciate postpartum support, including newborn education, breastfeeding guidance, and sleep training support after my baby is born. Most importantly, I am looking for a doula who complements my husband's role rather than replaces it. As first-time parents, we want someone who can help create a calm, low-stress environment, guide my husband on ways to comfort and support me during labor, and empower us to work together as a team throughout the birth experience.

Insurance covered only Scripps mercy Partner training and what to expect in a hospital birth with plans for epidural

I’m planning to have a natural birth if everything remains low risk. My first choice would be a home birth, but if that isn’t appropriate, I’m also open to delivering at a birthing center or, if necessary, at a hospital. I’m looking for a midwife and would also like to learn more about working with a birth doula, since I’ve never had either before. I’m 39 years old, and this is my second pregnancy. I don’t have a set budget at the moment, so I’m mainly looking for the best options and would appreciate information about your services, experience, availability, and pricing.

I plan to give birth in the hospital, Kaiser Walnut Creek. I want to try natural and unmedicated birth as much as possible but open to epidural. I want to refrain from c-section.
