Angeline is an amazing night nurse and postpartum doula. She supported us with our preemie son from day 2 until about week 6, and she still babysits here and there. He loves her and she’s wonderful with infants.

Hi! My name is Kaylan. I’m a certified Newborn Care Specialist with a degree in Child Development and over 12 years of hands-on experience supporting families during the newborn stage. I’ve worked in both Alabama (where I was born and raised) and Los Angeles, where I’ve been based since 2016. My passion for working with infants started early, and I feel so grateful to have turned that passion into a long-term, fulfilling career. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of families — including first-time parents, work-from-home professionals, and even high-profile clients such as professional athletes — which has helped me become highly adaptable and intuitive in all kinds of home environments. As a true night owl (I always say I’m a bit of a vampire! 🦇), overnight newborn care fits my natural rhythm perfectly. I specialize in creating calm, supportive nighttime routines that promote healthy sleep habits, while also providing peace of mind to parents during those first critical weeks and months. I’m excited about the possibility of supporting your growing family and hope to bring comfort, care, and consistency during this special transition into parenthood.

Kaylan services were amazing! She was very educated and knowledgeable. She was such a helping hand to not only my baby boy but me as well! She went over and beyond to give me the best days after giving birth. I trusted her so quickly and knew my baby boy was in GREAT hands. She kept me updated and we would do a talk before she left in the morning on how the night went. She kept everything neat and clean!

It is with pleasure that I write this review for Veronica Hinojosa, who served as my postpartum doula and night nurse. During one of the most vulnerable times in my life, Veronica’s motherly presence provided an immense sense of comfort and reassurance. Her warmth, kindness, and professionalism made all the difference in my postpartum journey. Veronica’s expertise and guidance were invaluable, particularly when it came to bottle feeding and establishing a daytime nap routine. Her advice was practical and effective, helping us create a rhythm that worked well for our baby. More than anything, I always felt secure knowing my little one was in her capable hands. Her natural talent for soothing and caring for infants gave me the peace of mind to truly rest and recharge for the following day. Additionally, Veronica’s dedication extended beyond her own services—when she was unavailable, she ensured we had reliable backup care through one of her trusted associates. This level of commitment and foresight further demonstrated her professionalism and reliability. I am incredibly grateful for Veronica’s support and would recommend her to any family in need of a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dependable postpartum doula or night nurse. She has been an invaluable part of our early parenting experience, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Hello, my name is Anna, and I am a birth & labor doula based in Los Angeles. Three years ago, a friend invited me to her home birth & I was skeptical, since I knew nothing about birth. Yet, it was such a transformational experience, as I had the privilege of supporting her through labor and saw the miracle of a baby entering the world. It changed my life! I love what I get to do, supporting families in vulnerable times, advocating for them, and creating an environment of safety and love. While I got my start at a home birth, I am happy to assist you in a hospital setting, birth center, or at home, since I believe you birth best wherever you feel most comfortable! I also do Bengkung bellybinding & placenta encapsulation to support the postpartum period.

Hi, I’m Maia! I’m a Los Angeles based certified and dedicated birth and postpartum doula, committed to empowering families through pregnancy, childbirth, and beyond. I began my journey with a strong desire to help women from all walks of life. This passion gradually evolved into a keen interest in pregnancy and childbirth, sparking my aspiration to become a midwife. While currently pursuing my degree, I realized I couldn't wait any longer to start supporting women during their pregnancies. Alongside my passion, I bring qualities like willingness, compassion, empathy, dedication, patience, understanding, and adaptability that I believe are crucial for helping women. So, I took action and became a certified birth doula. Now, here we are—you're looking for a doula, and I'm hoping we can work together and share the incredible journey to parenthood. I believe pregnancy and childbirth are the most precious gifts and miracles entrusted to women. It's an intimate and emotional ceremony that will forever be the most unforgettable and transformative experiences in your life. I also believe that childbirth is a natural process, perfectly suited to our bodies. While our bodies know how to give birth, they also rely on our mindfulness and awareness. That's where I come in. Together, we'll listen to your body, your desires, and your feelings, allowing them to guide us through the ups and downs of pregnancy and childbirth. What feels right for you is the right path for your journey. Together, we'll overcome any obstacles that arise and make informative decisions that align with your vision for your birth. I’m here to guide, advocate, and support you every step of the way as you embark on this beautiful journey of welcoming your new little one into the world. With Love, Maia

Hi, I’m Iliana! I’m a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula based in Los Angeles, and at my core, I’m a student of life. I believe in curiosity, imagination, and the strength of humanity. We’ve made it this far by showing up for one another, especially during life’s most vulnerable transitions, and that belief sits at the foundation of how I approach this work. Before becoming a doula, I spent years working in film and visual storytelling. That background deeply shapes how I support families. It taught me how to read a room, stay grounded under pressure, notice subtle shifts, and honor someone’s story without trying to control it. Birth is not so different. It’s unscripted, intimate, and deeply human. My role is to be present, observant, and steady, allowing your experience to unfold in its own way. In both birth and postpartum, my focus is connection. Connection to your body, your baby, and the people supporting you. I support all kinds of births, whether hospital or home, unmedicated or with an epidural. There is no one right way. I aim to demystify the physiology of birth so the unknown feels less intimidating, while also helping you feel more at home in your body. If you have a partner, I help you move as a team, offering tools for communication, grounding, and nervous system regulation. I strive to be a calming presence you can orient toward if things feel overwhelming. Postpartum, that support continues as you settle into life with your baby and find your rhythm. I’m here to support your story with care, curiosity, and deep respect for how human this season is. :)

Hi, I’m Kiley! I’m a Los Angeles based birth and postpartum doula, preconception coach, birth photographer and mother. With an extensive background spanning over a decade in healthcare, with a specific focus on women's health, family building and conception, paired with years immersed in the study of birth, my journey has evolved into a passionate exploration of the entire process from preconception to postpartum. Throughout my tenure, I experienced a profound paradigm shift, recognizing that there’s infinitely more to wellbeing than just the physiological aspects, prompting an exploration at a deeper level. This moment also ignited a connection to the initiation of childbirth and an enhanced reverence for the inherent strength within every woman. I perceive each birth as a sacred ceremony A powerful rite of passage that connects you to the cosmic forces of creation. I believe in bringing intention and presence to every phase of this journey, honoring that consciousness in preconception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum looks different for each individual. My work is about creating a dynamic in which you can discover what that means for you, so that are you well held, in full alignment with self.

I am a homebirth midwife located in East Los Angeles. My goal for my clients is for them to feel educated in the world of birth, empowered in their experience, and safe with me as their provider. I spent most of my young life in Guangzhou, China where my family cared for orphaned newborns. After high school I found a maternity clinic in the Philippines offering midwifery training and began my journey there. After completing an accelerated program, I moved to California and became licensed with the Medical Board of CA. I worked in birth centers to gain further experience, then stepped fully into my own homebirth practice where my passion lies. I love homebirth. It offers endless opportunity to find personalized ways to care for and build trust with my clients. Homebirth and all the care leading up to it is holistic, it's intimate, and it's completely unique to each person's story.

Bekah is an extraordinary midwife and human being. From the moment I found out I was pregnant, through every stage of pregnancy, labor, and postpartum, she provided unwavering support, guidance, and compassion. Bekah fully trusts the process of birth, deeply respects each family’s wishes, and offers her wisdom and experience in the most gentle, patient, and compassionate way. Her warmth, knowledge and care make the entire journey feel relaxed. It was a fun! I had a profoundly powerful birth experience, and I always felt completely supported by her presence. Bekah holds space beautifully, offering reassurance and guidance without ever taking away the autonomy or voice of the woman laboring. She is very experienced and confident. She is family. I could not have done this without her, and she will absolutely be my midwife for any future children. I cannot recommend her enough.

Loved having Kennedy here to help me out as my postpartum doula! She was so patient, genuinely kind, and very knowledgeable. As a first time mom, I had worries about how my birth would go but I didn't even think to consider my postpartum experience. I was stressed those first few weeks, but hiring Kennedy lifted a huge weight off of my shoulders and allowed me to rest and heal properly so that my baby could get the best version of me. I will always be grateful for her help and I cannot recommend her enough!

Hi! I’m Rechelle, a trained postpartum doula and newborn care specialist based in Van Nuys, CA. Growing up in Victorville, an underserved community with limited access to OB/GYNs and specialized care, shaped my passion for maternal health and advocacy. My journey into postpartum support began with an internship at Black Infant Health, where I saw firsthand the impact of culturally relevant care, especially for Black families facing higher risks and poor health outcomes. I trained with the DNT Network, a program that prepares doulas to provide high-quality, evidence-based postpartum and newborn care, because I value relationship-centered, accurate, and accessible care for every family. My background in public health, combined with personal experience supporting my brother who has special needs, has shown me the gaps families face and inspired my mission to close them. As a doula, my philosophy is simple: every family deserves compassionate, personalized support. I work closely with families to provide postpartum care in ways that are grounded, practical, and nurturing. Whether it’s feeding, soothing, sleep, light household tasks, or emotional support, my focus is on practical care that makes your nights easier. My mission is to reduce maternal health disparities while honoring the unique needs of each family I serve.

Rechelle was such a blessing during my birth journey. From the very beginning, she made me feel seen, heard, and cared for. She brought so much comfort and reassurance, not just for me but for my family too. Her presence was calming, her knowledge was grounding, and I I highly recommend her to any family looking for a dedicated and loving birth worker.

I cannot speak highly enough of Eldrid's invaluable support during my postpartum recovery. After my C-section, she became an indispensable part of our household, seamlessly managing tasks that allowed me to focus on healing and bonding with my newborn. Eldrid not only cooked delicious and nutritious meals that nourished our family (by the way, she makes the BEST lactation chocolate chip cookies and tapioca pudding), but she also ensured our home was consistently tidy and organized. Her attention to detail in laundry and housekeeping meant I could rest without worry. The soothing massages she provided for my feet, shoulders, neck, and hands were incredibly therapeutic and helped relieve the tension that comes with new motherhood. Beyond the physical care, Eldrid went above and beyond by taking expert care of our baby, allowing me precious moments to nap, shower, or simply take a solo walk for much-needed self-care. Eldrid's understanding and compassionate demeanor made me feel supported and understood during those overwhelming first weeks as a new mom. I remember when I had my first experience with breast engorgement. I was terrified and texted Eldrid, and she immediately knew the fix and brought over some cabbage leaves to help manage the pain. Eldrid's dedication to both my baby's well-being and my own was evident in every interaction. She listened attentively to my concerns and offered invaluable guidance and reassurance. Her nurturing presence not only eased the transition into motherhood but also fostered a sense of confidence and empowerment in my new role. I am profoundly grateful to Eldrid for her unwavering support and expertise during a pivotal time in our lives. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine care have left an indelible mark on our family's journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Eldrid to any parent seeking compassionate and knowledgeable postpartum care. My family misses her greatly!

I cannot recommend Nicole enough if you are looking for postpartum doula support! Nicole started with us the second night we got home from the hospital with our first baby and worked with us for months after as we adjusted to our new normal. In addition to caring for our daughter overnight so we could get some much needed rest, she helped me with establishing a strong breastfeeding relationship, setting a pumping schedule, establishing a nighttime and morning routine for our daughter and provided hands-on instruction in how to generally care for a newborn. Nicole is such a wonderful, caring person. Our daughter loved her and she’s truly became part of our family. She strikes the perfect balance between sharing her expertise and following our lead as parents. She has a wealth of knowledge about breastfeeding and I credit her for how smooth my breastfeeding journey gone. In addition to quickly building a strong relationship with our daughter, she also cares for my husband and I and talks to us regularly about setting up systems so that we can make sure we are still taking care of ourselves and connecting as a couple. She really does support the entire family. I truly don't know how we would have survived those first months home without Nicole. If you work with her to help care for your family, you'll have a much richer parenting experience.

Every birth and every family is so unique and deserves the space and respect to navigate that journey. Educating yourself, finding the best people to be apart of your birthing team, and uncovering your births hopes and dreams are so important in helping you achieve your ideal birth. This is your birth and I am here to help you navigate it. I strive to create a positive, non-judgmental, and inclusive experience for every birthing environment I am welcomed into.

Recent review

I cannot say enough positive and kind words about Sharlene! Her support and guidance were exactly what I needed during so many ups and downs of my pregnancy. This was my second birth, my redemption birth. From our first meeting, I knew she understood my husband and my trauma from our first birth, our goals for this birth, and what we desired and needed. This started with her encouraging and validating my decision to change OBs at 28 weeks. She wrapped her supportive arms around us as we were monitored extensively at the end by a specialist. She answered every message with such grace, always saying just what I needed. She advocated for us before we even got to the hospital and I looked to her throughout. Sharlene, my husband, and new OB made up my dream team and curated my redemption birth. I am overwhelmingly grateful to have had her in my corner, then and always.
