Naoko Sumii Popular: among the most-viewed doulas in California, last 60 days

Responds within a few hours Accepts insurance

Hello! I’m Naoko. I am a Japanese-trained midwife, birth and postpartum doula, lactation counselor, childbirth educator, and mother of four. Before moving to the United States, I worked as a midwife in Japan, supporting families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Since moving to the San Francisco Bay Area, I have continued supporting families as a doula with compassionate, evidence-based, and personalized care. My approach is centered on the person giving birth. I believe every birthing person deserves to feel heard, respected, informed, and supported in making decisions that are right for them and their family. I draw on both my medical knowledge and my personal experience raising four children to provide practical, compassionate, and individualized support. I welcome families of all backgrounds, races, cultures, gender identities, and sexual orientations, including LGBTQ+ families. I support a wide range of birth preferences and experiences, including unmedicated birth, epidural birth, induction, VBAC, and cesarean birth. I also offer childbirth education, breastfeeding and lactation guidance, prenatal yoga, and bilingual support in English and Japanese. My goal is to help each family feel confident, supported, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey.

I reached out for support because I was feeling really anxious about attempting a TOLAC. I wasn’t sure if I should go for it, but after having many honest conversations, I felt completely heard and supported. That helped me make a decision I truly felt good about. On the day of my delivery, she came right away. Her bright encouragement and Naoko’s calming presence helped me shift from fear to confidence. In the end, I had a successful VBAC, and it turned into the best birth experience I could have hoped for. I’m so grateful I chose Naoko’s support and would absolutely recommend her to anyone considering a TOLAC or VBAC.

Hi, I’m Avery. I’m an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and, most importantly, a mom to two little ones who inspired my passion for supporting families during the early stages of parenthood. My own experiences with motherhood showed me just how beautiful, overwhelming, and transformative this season can be. I know firsthand how much parents want to simply soak in those newborn moments without feeling stressed, confused, or alone when feeding challenges arise. That understanding is what led me to this work. I truly believe that lactation support is not a luxury. It is a vital part of prenatal and postpartum care. Every family deserves access to compassionate, evidence-based, and affordable support during such a vulnerable and important time. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and supported as you navigate feeding your baby. Whether you’re preparing during pregnancy, working through challenges, or simply looking for reassurance, I’m here to listen, guide, and help you find what works best for you and your baby.

Avery is so sweet, encouraging & makes you feel comfortable! She handles your baby with care & pays attention to what you need help with. She recommended some exercises to do for my baby & advice on how to relieve some pain I had from a shallow latch. It’s also a huge plus that she will come to your home! So nice to not have to go anywhere & be in the comfort of your home.

Hi! I’m Sandrine, a Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) based in Longmont and traveling to Westminster or Fort Collins, supporting mothers and babies through their breastfeeding journey in the comfort of their homes. My services are covered by most insurances. 🙂 Breastfeeding can be beautiful, but it can also feel overwhelming when challenges like pain, fatigue, low milk supply, or latching difficulties arise. With compassionate, individualized support, breastfeeding can become a positive and empowering experience—even after a difficult start. At Baby Smile Lactation, I offer holistic care that honors the connection between mother and baby. I provide support in English, Spanish, and French, because a thriving baby begins with a supported, well-rested mother. 😊

Recent review

It was amazing to work with Sandrine, and I couldn't recommend her enough! My 1-week-old baby was experiencing nipple/flow confusion, and I worked with Sandrine to get her back to the breast while still gaining weight (both were successfully accomplished!). If you want a lactation consultant who is really knowledgeable and will be there for you (not only during appointments, but also available to answer your questions via message or phone, even on weekends), and who is always extremely supportive, Sandrine is the person! Thank you, Sandrine, for helping me get my breastfeeding journey back on track!

Hi!!! My name is Megan Weimer and I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and the founder of Love & Leche Lactation, serving families in southern Chester County, PA and the surrounding tri-state area. I support families through prenatal and postpartum feeding with a calm, practical, and evidence-based approach. With a background in Industrial Engineering, I bring a problem-solving mindset to lactation care, helping parents understand not just what is happening with feeding, but why. As both an IBCLC and a parent of two whom I breastfed, I understand how personal and emotional feeding can be. My goal is to meet families where they are, honor their feeding goals, and provide supportive, judgment-free care that helps parents feel informed and confident.

Recent review

Megan has been a tremendous help throughout my breastfeeding and pumping journey. She is friendly, down-to-earth, and incredibly knowledgeable, and I felt comfortable with her right away. She has helped me with so many things I simply didn’t know about, including proper flange fitting, getting the most output from my pump, breastfeeding positions, improving my daughter’s latch, and navigating a breastfeeding journey that works best for my family. I really appreciate that her guidance is practical and individualized to what works for us. After every session, I leave with a clear plan and helpful resources. I only wish I had found Megan sooner and scheduled with her before my baby arrived. She has been an incredible resource, and I would highly recommend her to any new or expecting mom!

Christina was amazing! I was feeling so discouraged with my breastfeeding journey after having mastitis a few times and she was able to help me pinpoint what the causes might be. After meeting with her and following her suggestions i have been mastitis free and truly enjoying my breastfeeding journey. Christina is so knowledgeable, personable, and caring. She took her time with me and baby and made sure all my questions/concerns were addressed. I immediately felt comfortable with her and would use her services again! I highly recommend her!!

Christy is great! She’s informative and very knowledgeable. Her background shines but also her demeanor is kind and welcoming, making you feel very comfortable discussing possible emergency situations. We loved having her in our home, we paid attention and asked questions- something that probably wouldn’t have happened in a group or zoom setting. Christy should be part of your village, book her now!

I cannot recommend Rachel enough. As a first-time mom, I was feeling overwhelmed to start breastfeeding, but meeting with Rachel before baby arrived made all the difference. She provided invaluable information and guidance that made me feel much more prepared and confident. Rachel has met with us serval times now, and has been a constant support throughout my breastfeeding journey.

It's said that breastfeeding a baby is the most natural thing in the world, but it doesn't always come naturally. Like many new parents, I experienced a few challenges while breastfeeding my own children. I want to help others avoid or overcome similar difficulties, if possible. The nursing dyad is such a special relationship and I want as many people as possible to get a chance to experience it. Here in America, lactation consultants are often the only health professional visiting a new family in their home, and sometimes we are the only health care worker seeing a new mom in the first six weeks postpartum. I feel really lucky to be one of the first people to meet the new baby! An IBCLC is a unique professional for your family's unique needs. We are small parts sister, friend, nurse, doula, nutritionist, therapist, parenting coach, biology teacher, and detective! We are an important part of your postpartum support system!

Don’t look elsewhere, hire Sharla! Working with Sharla was truly one of the best decisions I made after having my baby. Breastfeeding can be an overwhelming, confusing, and sometimes difficult journey, and Sharla made it so much easier for me. She is incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, responsive, and she made me feel confident in what I was doing. When we ran into challenges, including my son’s tongue-tie and my experience with mastitis, Sharla quickly helped identify what was going on and gave me solutions that made a huge difference. Whenever I had a question or wasn’t sure what to do next, I could turn to Sharla, who gave me thoughtful and practical guidance. I only wish I had found Sharla with my first healthy child! Having her support this time around made a massive positive difference in my postpartum experience. If you’re considering working with a lactation consultant, I cannot recommend Sharla enough. She is absolutely worth it!

Hi! I’m Amber Tejeda, a Registered Nurse, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and founder of Living Proof Lactation. I have over 11 years of nursing experience, including caring for babies and families in the NICU, and six years of experience as an IBCLC. My own experience as a NICU mom to a premature baby has given me an even deeper appreciation for how overwhelming feeding journeys can feel, especially when things don’t go as planned. My approach to lactation care is compassionate, evidence-based, and centered around YOU and your baby. Whether you’re preparing to breastfeed, navigating pumping, working through latch or milk supply challenges, or finding your way through a more complicated feeding journey, my goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to feeding, and you deserve care that respects your goals, your circumstances, and your family’s needs. I’m here to meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you find a feeding plan that works for your family.
