Camille La Rocca-Carrillo

In May of 2022 Camille became a certified Labor Doula and then added a certification in Postpartum and Infant Care in February of 2023. She is excited to be living her dream of supporting mamas and their families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum as a doula. She lives in Yamhill County, Oregon with her new baby boy, her husband, and their mini Aussie, Remi.

Working with Camille was such a blessing. She sat down with me to learn about my desires for birth but also had questions to get to know me better so she could truly support me in the ways I needed. She also had great resources for both me and my birth partner which were so helpful since this was my first pregnancy. She checked in towards the end of my pregnancy but never in an annoying way. You could tell she was genuinely wanting to make sure I was doing okay and making decisions I was comfortable with. During labor she walked right into the room and immediately started comforting me. She set out my affirmation cards, massaged my hands after I had to get my iv redone, she held essential oils up to my nose as I experienced nausea and she helped my nurses move me into different positions in bed. Once I was in active labor and was pushing I remember hearing her words of encouragement but it was subtle so that I could also feel the presence and support of my mom who was in the room as well. Camille did a wonderful job of being there for me while also supporting the team of people around me. I felt very taken care of and I am forever grateful for that presence!

Welcome to your next adventure! This addition to your family will be locked in as a core memory forever- so why not make it the most positive experience it can possibly be? As a doula since 2011 with hundreds of families served, I bring experience as a mom of 4 and warm hands to guide the way. Postpartum can be a vulnerable time, and coupled with a huge transition and lack of sleep, sometimes gets off track. That's where I come in. My goals are to meet you where you're at and fill in the gaps. Most often, this means helping baby sleep so you can too! I specialize in breast or bottle feeding support and troubleshooting, multiples, and newborn sleep. I also have years of experience and am comfortable with preemies and NICU babies. My personality is casual, friendly, and warm, and I bring my sense of humor with me everywhere. Clients appreciate my calm nature and positivity, as well as the resources I provide to get them through anything that might arise. I often hear, "I wish I had doula support for my other babies!", and "We got so much more sleep than we would have without you." Let's work together to figure out your needs and how I can best support you.

Sara is incredible! From the initial interview we knew she would be great. She has so much experience and it really shows. She didn’t just help take care of our daughter at night, she basically sleep trained her and helped us set up a day time schedule so her nights would be super easy and chill. In less than a month, our daughter is sleeping incredibly with just 2 super quick feeds. She is loving, caring, trustworthy, and reliable! Couldn’t recommend enough. Sara can share my contact if you want to reach out and discuss!

FAQs

What does a bereavement doula do?

A bereavement doula supports families through miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, and pregnancies with a difficult diagnosis. They offer emotional and practical support before, during, and after the loss. They are not therapists or medical providers, and many work alongside both.

When can I reach out to a bereavement doula?

At any point: when you receive a diagnosis, during a loss, or weeks and months afterward. There is no wrong time, and you can message a provider just to ask how they work.

Can a bereavement doula support a pregnancy after loss?

Yes. Many doulas who list this specialty also support parents who are pregnant again after a loss. Ask about that experience when you message them.
