Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Cypress, CA

A calling that has been nurtured for 32 years. I began my career with children as a teenage babysitter. I have been fascinated by child development since I was little more than a child myself. Arriving in the USA in 1991 from Barranquilla, Colombia I was immediately employed by Universal Studios Child Care Center. This experience offered a wide range of infants to care for and deepened my desire to advance in my calling as a childcare specialist. It was in my interactions with various parents that I soon realized how what came naturally to me was frightening to some. In a very short time, parents were asking me to provide services outside of the care center. I was helping with establishing baby sleep schedules, nighttime care and creating baby routines for families. In 1998 I had met my birthing doula trainer and mentor Carmen of Gyntle Touch Birth. At Carmen’s recommendation I also became a certified massage therapist from Touch Therapy Institute. Immediately I offered my time as a birthing and prenatal doula to help low-income unwed mothers. This was my way of giving back in gratitude of my being able to pursue my life’s purpose and obtain a vast amount of experience with a diverse group of mothers. Over the last 32 years I have worked with hundreds of families, from birthing babies, preparing hospital care routines and directives, setting up nursery supplies, prenatal doula, lactation coach, night care, postpartum care, pregnancy and baby massage. Along the way I married and was blessed to deliver my own two children, with my mentor Carmen presiding as my birthing doula. A not so well-kept secret is that my husband and I are gourmet chefs, an additional service many families are excited to have made available to them. I consider myself truly blessed in that I am able to share in the most important part of a family. Incredibly, many of the children I have had a hand in raising continue to contact me throughout their life. I have had the wonderfully good fortune to attend many, confirmations, bar & bat mitzvahs, graduations from elementary, Jr. High, High School, College and recently my first Graduate school ceremony. I respect privacy and discretion, am able to travel, provide meal preparation and offer household management services.

After my son's birth, I was reeling from how well my birth journey went. I heard so many horror stories from friends and family about how their birthing days went. I was appalled for them. Most were pushed around by hospital staff, forced into unnecessary c-sections or just completely unaware of what options they had! I became determined to be an advocate for women who want to feel validated and that they can birth the way they choose. I want to be able to provide a beautiful experience, to anyone who desires it. Having my son empowered me to help other women have the birth of their dreams. I strive for a smooth, calm process, free from stress, judgement and fear. Whether it be at home, a birth center or hospital, all natural, medicated or planned c-sections, I believe that women should be able to do things their own way. Because each and every woman, birth and baby is different, I take pride in supporting you, however you choose to proceed. Hospitals can get confusing, nurses/OB's can get impatient, let me be your advocate through this journey. Let me help you, do you. Let's birth the way that you want.

Hi, I’m Susy, founder of Baby N Doula Care. I’m a certified postpartum doula and lactation educator, with specialized training in newborn care and NICU support. With over 18 years of experience, I provide thoughtful, evidence-based care to help families feel confident, supported, and well-rested during the early weeks at home. My approach is calm, respectful, and tailored to each family’s unique needs, offering both practical guidance and emotional support throughout the postpartum journey.

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.

Hi, I’m Miri Rosen, founder of Joyful Beginnings Doula Services, a birth doula and Certified Lactation Educator serving families throughout Orange County and Southern California. I believe birth is one of the most sacred and transformative moments in a family’s story. It is a privilege to witness this incredible transition and to provide a steady, compassionate presence during a time filled with anticipation, strength, vulnerability, and love. My approach blends gentle guidance, evidence-based education, and unwavering emotional support. I am here to help you feel prepared before birth, confident during labor, and deeply supported as you welcome your baby into the world. Every birth is unique, and every family deserves to feel seen, respected, and empowered in their choices. Whether I am offering comfort through labor, helping you navigate decisions, providing reassurance during challenging moments, or supporting your early feeding journey, my intention is always the same—to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and cared for. Families often share that my calm presence brings them a sense of peace and confidence.

I'm a New Yorker of Caribbean descent, a tomboy at heart who loves hard, plays sports, and is creative. A former educator, I see pregnancy as sacred community work and my clients as family. My doula philosophy is rooted in radical presence, cultural humility, and Christ-centered service. I believe every birth deserves advocacy, informed choice, and a warm village wrapped around it. My intention is to create a safe, judgment-free space where families feel seen, heard, and held in their full stories, whether in joy, grief, or the in-between. I try to live out the Acts-church model, showing up, sharing life, and walking alongside families as I follow God's divine direction while continually learning and growing. I've been a doula for about five years and am now on my journey to become a midwife, carrying that same heart of service into clinical care. Serving the community is my daily bread; I get to serve God's children with my hands, my skills, and my presence, and that is what truly gives me life.

I bring a unique combination of healthcare knowledge and creative skills. With a background in obstetrics, gynecology, and public health, I have a strong understanding of women’s health, pregnancy, and postpartum care.

In addition to my formal experience, I have supported mothers and families during pregnancy and postpartum periods, offering emotional support and guidance. My background in obstetrics and women’s health has given me hands-on exposure to childbirth settings, newborn care, and maternal well-being.

My studies include prenatal yoga, breath work, pre/postnatal nutrition, hypnobirthing, lactation, and infant sleep, so if you see support enhancing your early motherhood experience, I can see you through.

Hello, I'm Cierria Leyazhié or you may call me Apache, and I believe birth is one of God’s most beautiful and sacred calls. My passion is supporting mothers not just through the physical act of labor, but through the profound spiritual and energetic transformation it demands. My approach is built on three distinct pillars: Pillar 1: Christ-Centered Care & Hypnobirthing: I equip you with Scriptural affirmations, prayerful grounding techniques, and Christian Hypnobirthing methods—helping you replace fear and tension with profound relaxation and faith, working toward a gentler, less painful birth experience. Pillar 2: Ayurvedic Wisdom & Doula Training: My commitment to holistic health is backed by rigorous education from the Southern California University of Health Sciences (SCUHS), where I earned certifications as an Ayurvedic Wellness Educator and Ayurvedic Health Practitioner. I then completed my full-spectrum doula training with the Sankofa Birthing Collective. I guide mothers toward balanced health, focusing heavily on Vata-pacifying principles—the ancient practice of using warmth, nourishment, and deep rest for true physical and nervous system recovery during the crucial 42-day postpartum period.

I am dedicated to helping you experience a birth and recovery that is peaceful, powerful, and deeply honoring of your body and your faith.
