Courtney Falcon - Birth Doula

About Courtney

My journey as a labor doula began in 2021, driven by a deep passion for supporting families during one of life’s most transformative moments. With a strong foundation in newborn and infant care since 2015, I feel truly honored to walk alongside parents as they welcome their little ones into the world. My background includes working as a Floortime therapist for children with ASD, serving as an after-school program director, and capturing magical memories as a photographer at Disneyland. Yet, nothing compares to the profound joy of hearing a baby's heartbeat on a monitor and then witnessing their first cries as they enter the world. I am committed to continuous learning and aspire to expand my expertise as a postpartum doula and grief/death doula, ensuring I can provide compassionate care at every stage of the journey.

Birth Doula packages and pricing

Labor Doula

Initial Interview & Contract Signing – We’ll discuss your birth preferences, expectations, and how I can best support you. 2-4 In-Person Prenatal Meetings (each lasting ~2 hours) to: Create a personalized birth preference chart and review all possible scenarios so you feel informed and empowered. Address any priorities, concerns, or fears you may have. Share evidence-based information on interventions and birth choices. Review physical movements and comfort techniques to support early labor. Provide lactation/breastfeeding guidance and discuss feeding preferences. Offer referrals to additional resources if needed. Labor & Birth Support I am on-call 24/7 starting two weeks before your estimated due date. I follow your lead on when you’d like me to join you in labor: I can meet you at home to support you through early labor or I can meet you directly at the hospital when you’re ready. Ideally, I will be notified when you reach 5 cm dilation or when contractions are 5 minutes apart. Once you are admitted to the hospital, I will remain by your side throughout labor and birth unless you request privacy. If you have hired me through the Little Company of Mary program, I have access to a space where I can provide you with blankets, pillows, snacks, juice, crunchy ice, and popsicles (based on availability). Postpartum Support After delivery, I will stay with you to assist with initial breastfeeding and ensure you are as comfortable as possible in the postpartum care unit. Final Postpartum Visit (7-10 days after birth): I will bring a home-cooked meal for the new parents. We’ll review your birth experience and milestones. I’ll check in to see if you need any additional resources or support. We can discuss staying in touch if you’d like continued guidance.

Nanny

~I offer up to 8 hours of total caregiving time per day at my standard rate. Any hours beyond that will be considered overtime and billed at time-and-a-half ($45/hour). This will be tracked across all families, not just per shift—so on days where I’m working with multiple families, the final hour(s) of our time together may fall into the overtime rate. I’m happy to check in regularly about my schedule so that any changes in rate are never a surprise.~ As your dedicated and reliable nanny, I provide compassionate, professional care tailored to your family’s needs. My goal is to support parents by ensuring a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment for your baby while also helping with essential tasks. Commitment to Reliability & Communication ✔️ Always arrive on time and communicate any delays promptly. ✔️ Provide advance notice if unavailable and work with the family to reschedule. Health & Hygiene ✔️ Frequent hand washing and sanitizing to maintain a clean and safe space. ✔️ Regular sanitization of common surfaces using the family's preferred cleaning products. Infant & Household Care Feeding & Bottle Care Follow paced bottle feeding techniques for proper digestion. Ensure baby is positioned at a 45-degree angle and properly burped. Sanitize and put away bottles, pump parts, and pacifiers by hand, dishwasher, or sterilizer. Baby Laundry & Tidying Up Wash, fold, and organize baby’s laundry. Maintain tidiness in common areas such as the nursery, kitchen, and play spaces. Diapering & Sleep Support Diaper changes as needed or at least every three hours. Log diaper and feeding updates via the family’s preferred app or verbal communication. Maintain healthy nap routines—capped at two hours per nap, with contact naps limited to one hour if needed.

What to expect

From an early age, I have been drawn to the magic of infancy. Through my experiences working with children in schools and at Disneyland, one thing became clear—my heart is most at home with babies, as close to the womb as possible! Newborns are incredible. They are constantly growing, adapting, and achieving remarkable milestones in both the womb and the early months of life. I am deeply fascinated by these developmental stages and love sharing knowledge about them. Beyond my passion for babies, I find true fulfillment in educating and supporting families. Whether it’s providing insight into childbirth, discussing newborn care, or simply offering a reassuring presence, I am honored to walk this journey with those who invite me into their birth experience.

Courtney Falcon was our back up doula for our second child, but it ended up being a great experience and possibly even kismet. We were very lucky to have someone take charge in a warm and loving manner. We felt supported every step of the way. She even stayed many late hours after the birth to help make sure our son was stable and didn't have to go to the NICU. Without her diligence, our child wouldn't have been able to avoid the NICU- she was a godsend. She's extremely knowledgeable, and is always looking to expand her learning. She was always providing us with more resources than we even knew we needed, and not just about babies, but about child/toddler behavior as well. Courtney is also excellent with babies and children, and provided some child care to our family during our times of need. With her previous background working with kids, we felt our kids were in the best of hands. We cannot recommend Courtney Falcon enough to be your doula, please book her today!

I cannot express how grateful I am to have had Courtneys help and support during my birthing journey. I did not have the birth that I planned, and having Courtney there helping me go through each step was a blessing. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, but her empathy, support, and reliability were invaluable. I will be requesting her support for all future pregnancies. She is the best.
