Welcome to my profile! I’m Stefanie, an IBCLC, postpartum doula, and student herbalist serving Los Angeles for 12 years and counting! My care is centered on sustainability - what’s sustainable for mom best serves the entire family. I pull from a broad range of skills and education to provide thorough care influenced by holistic care, my background in Psychology, Ayurvedic practices, and my own motherhood journey.

As a doula it is not only my job to provide nurturing physical and emotional support during childbirth, but also to equip each family ahead of time with the knowledge and tools to feel confident going into birth. I believe this makes all the difference in the outcome.

I am a pediatric speech language pathologist specializing in communication, feeding, and orofacial myology disorders for children ages 0-12.

Having grown up in Silver Lake, I feel a strong sense of community in north east Los Angeles and am honored to support this community that raised me and continues to raise my own child. I love what I do and feel beyond lucky to share this journey of growth and parenting with the families I work with.

Hello! My name is Sana’a, and I am a certified postpartum doula with a deep passion for supporting new parents and their little ones. My goal is to provide compassionate, hands-on care that nurtures both the baby and the family as they adjust to this transformative stage of life.

As an art teacher, I introduced children to the joys of knitting and crocheting, fostering creativity and patience in a fun, hands-on way.

I am committed to creating a calm, organized, and nurturing environment for new parents. Whether it’s assisting with newborn care, meal preparation, emotional support, or helping parents establish a routine, I take pride in easing the transition into parenthood. I love this work because I believe that when families feel supported, they thrive—and nothing is more rewarding than being part of that journey.

Hello, my name is Nina Lamanna and I am a DONA certfied Birth and Postpartum Doula from Los Angeles. I have been a doula since 2017, and trained with DONA teachers and trainers in Los Angeles with Kathryn Auger and Cheryl Baker. My practice involves tuning into our inherent spiritual nature that is within each of us and delving deep to heal wounds. In my free time, I enjoy making dinner with my husband, dancing ballet, baking, painting, and playing with my english bulldog.

I was born and raised in Verona, Italy, where, starting at an early age, my studies of ballet, theater, and contemporary dance whet my appetite for visual beauty. After the birth of my second child, I discovered my true passion and started as a birth doula within the Los Angeles birth community. It was then that I envisioned the possibility of finally putting my visual passion to use—by becoming a professional and certified birth photographer. I recognize the power and strength within you, and I am here to support YOUR vision for the birth of your family and guide you toward making it a reality.
