Parents: please share your EDD & contact info in the message body 🙏🏾 Birth doula of 13 years. This is my calling in life to be of service to labor/birth. I’m very grateful to have this as my service in this lifetime and believe every new life is a gift to be honored with care, love and respect for the process. Trained in techniques that encourage optimal fetal positioning by finding balance in the body (more comfort during pregnancy as well as labor/birth) optimal positioning helps labor be more comfortable, increasing odds of a efficient and smoother vaginal birth. I share these techniques with my clients in the third trimester to decrease the use of interventions & prevent trauma. Also practicing placenta encapsulation and massage therapy at Full Moon Birth & Family Wellness Center.

My role as a birth doula is to create a safe space and empower all birthing persons to have a positive birth experience. I greatly enjoy working as a team with the birthing person, partner and caregivers.

In 2014, after having my own home birth with a midwife, I knew that I wanted to help expectant families have that same empowered and supported birthing experience that I did. I am dedicated to making sure that you and your partner feel like you have the skills you need to have the most positive birth experience as possible. I love to explore and research ways to provide you with continuous support, and use evidence based information so that you can make educated decisions during your pregnancy, birth, and into postpartum. I support families all throughout the following areas: South Bay, Peninsula, San Francisco, and East Bay. I am 100% vaccinated and boosted.

As your postpartum doula, I offer a range of essential services to make your transition into parenthood as smooth as possible. From providing overnight support to ensure restful nights for your family, to expertly assisting with both bottle and breastfeeding, I'm here to address your unique needs and preferences. Additionally, I take care of practical tasks like washing bottles and pump parts, allowing you to focus on bonding with your precious little one. With a compassionate and experienced approach, I aim to empower you with the confidence and care you deserve during this transformative time.

Congratulations on this beautiful chapter of your life! As a birth and postpartum doula, I believe in empowering families with unwavering support, guidance, and nurturing care during your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period. I believe every parent deserves to feel confident, respected, and deeply cared for as they welcome their sweet little one.

Hello, I’m Jill, a DONA certified birth doula. As a mother myself, I understand the required blend of emotions and preparation needed for this journey into motherhood. My practice is centered on creating a safe, secure and calm space where you feel empowered and informed. I will help you navigate your options with confidence, clarity and evidence-based information. I have always been a caretaker and have really found myself in doing birth work, it's something I am very passionate about doing. I am continually expanding my knowledge with volunteer doula work, as well as various classes in childbirth, Spinning Babies and anything I can find. When I’m not supporting clients, I love to spend time with my family and in nature. Puzzles are also something I really enjoy doing in my down time. 

My role as a newborn care specialist and postpartum doula is to support parents and provide nurturing, responsive care to infants in their first 4 months of life (age adjusted.) I offer evidence-based care and resources, and help set realistic expectations for those early days with a newborn (or multiple babies.) It’s an honor to help you become more confident in yourself, help you get the rest you need, and support your goals for your family’s life. Whether your priority is setting routines, stretching sleep durations, maximizing your milk supply, or learning the basics of baby care - I’m here to respectfully partner with you along the way. In time, you’ll believe that you know your baby best and you’re what they need the most. Services offered include daytime or overnight newborn care, postpartum support, lactation education, parent instruction on infant safety, developmental milestones, hygiene, sleep shaping, feeding, infant routines, nursery set-up, and recognizing the signs of postpartum mood and anxiety disorders (this is strictly educational.) While I encourage self monitoring and action planning for postpartum mood disorders as early as possible, I do not diagnose or treat any conditions. I am not a licensed medical professional. On a case-by-case basis, I offer sleep coaching (through video, phone call, or in-person consultations), and sleep training (in-person support for no more than 4 nights/days only if an infant is at least 5 months old, and at least 8 hours per night.) Sleep conditioning (in which I support your family in setting a healthy sleep foundation and form sustainable routines) is a complimentary part of my NCS services. In many cases, more rigorous “sleep training” is not necessarily needed. I’m a Safe Sleep Ambassador trained through Cribs for Kids. Please be advised that I strictly adhere to the American Academy of Pediatrics Safe Sleep Recommendations while babies are in my care: this includes placing baby to sleep alone, on their back - on a firm, flat sleep surface that is free of objects - in a crib/pack n’ play/bassinet without bumpers, blankets, pacifier clips, or toys. I support all types of families that follow various traditions, practices, and philosophies without judgement. As a professional and non-family member, it’s especially important I model and adhere to AAP recommendations and evidence-based practices during the time I work.

I’m Leticia Butruce, a Brazilian-born, U.S.-based certified postpartum doula with a lifelong passion for caring for babies and supporting families. With an extensive background in childcare and family assistance, along with training through DONA International, I offer compassionate, hands-on support during one of life’s biggest transitions—welcoming a new baby. Whether you need daytime help with your routine, overnight newborn care, or support during postpartum recovery, I’m here to bring calm, care, and confidence to your growing family.

Hi! I’m Tunisha (Nisha), a passionate certified birth/postpartum doula, mother of three amazing kids. My own experiences with pregnancy and birth taught me just how transformative this time is, and my philosophy is simple: every parent deserves to feel empowered, respected, and safe, no matter how their birth unfolds. Before becoming a professional doula, I was the go-to person for my friends and family, providing hands-on support, encouragement, and care during their pregnancies and early postpartum days. I believe in 'mothering the mother'—offering calm, non-judgmental, and practical support to help you navigate this incredible journey. I would be honored to hold space for you and help you welcome your baby with confidence.

Hi, I’m Emma—founder of Solstice Birth Co, and a birth worker with over a decade of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My journey into this work began in a deeply personal way—witnessing birth as a child, I was struck by how powerful, raw, and transformative it was. That early experience stayed with me and ultimately led me down the path of midwifery. Years later, I went on to have my own home birth with my daughter in 2009—an experience that further rooted my belief in the body’s innate wisdom and the importance of feeling safe, supported, and truly seen during birth. I went on to train as a traditionally trained midwife (CPM, LM), working hands-on with families across California and building a strong clinical and intuitive foundation in the midwifery model of care—one that honors pregnancy and birth as physiologic, sacred, and deeply human experiences. At this time, I am no longer offering home birth midwifery care. Instead, I’ve shifted into a more integrative and supportive role—one that allows me to walk alongside women and families in a deeply personalized way through Solstice Birth Co.

At Maiden Love Birth, I honor pregnancy and birth as normal, healthy, and sacred life events. My care is rooted in the midwifery model — supporting the natural process of birth, trusting in your body’s wisdom, and centering your choices. I provide comprehensive, individualized support through pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum, working in partnership with you and your healthcare team. My goal is to help create a peaceful, safe environment where you feel respected, informed, and deeply cared for. Doula care should be accessible to all — I accept a variety of insurance plans and offer flexible visit schedules to meet your unique needs.

My name is Amber Bardini, and I am the proud owner of Blooming Families Doula Services, LLC - a full spectrum doula agency, serving our wonderful clients throughout the greater Sacramento area and beyond. As a wife, mom of three, and certified full spectrum doula, my mission is to ensure that every parent and parent-to-be feels empowered, nurtured, and fully supported as they navigate this beautiful transition. My journey into the world of doula work began with a passion to make a positive impact on the birth and postpartum experiences of new families. Becoming a parent was one of the most challenging transitions of my life, and I remember how lost and alone I often felt as a new mom. I knew there needed to be a profound change in how we treat new parents and parents-to-be. I am truly dedicated to supporting new families—so they never have to feel the way I did. I founded Blooming Families Doula Services to extend compassionate, professional support to families in every stage of their journey. My goal is to ensure that every family receives the dedicated care they need to thrive and to help them build a strong, supportive village around them. I believe that every birth and every journey is unique, and every person and new parent is different. What works for one person, may not work for another.

Hello everyone! My name is Sophia Seidensticker and I am a DONA Certified Birth Doula serving the Sacramento, California area. Birth is a natural process and I am fascinated and inspired by what the body can accomplish when birthing people feel safe and supported. I provide emotional, physical, and informational support to my clients so that they are empowered to make informed decisions about their health and have a positive birth experience. In my free time, I like to swim in the ocean, play board games with friends, and watch improv comedy.

Hi there! My name is Morgan and I am a birth and postpartum doula in Sacramento, CA. I am currently working towards my Maternal Support Practitioner certification through Bebo Mia. I’ve always been fascinated by birth, but after experiencing an unplanned cesarean with my first son, then achieving a VBAC with my second son, my fascination transformed into a passion. Everyone’s birth is different and unpredictable. My dream, in the chaos and beauty of birth, is to make sure all birthers feel safe, supported, and nurtured, both during labor and in the postpartum period. Being there to support one of the most transformational and emotional moments of life is truly such an honor. As I’m working towards my certification and need a specific amount of hours/births attended in order to reach that goal, I’m more than happy to work with sliding scale. Currently, I am unable to accept insurance but hope to in the future! When I’m not absorbing everything I can about pregnancy, birth, and beyond, you can usually find me trying to sneak in a few chapters of a romantasy novel, playing monster trucks with my boys, or laughing with loved ones.

My approach is centered on creating a safe, grounded, and healing space for mothers—blending bodywork, energy work, and emotional support to honor each birthing experience. I would love to be a part of your birth journey and provide the care, reassurance, and holistic support you deserve. I look forward to connecting and holding space for you! Warmly, Iyanna
