My partner and I decided to hire a doula because we really wanted that emotional and physical support. That being our first pregnancy, we had many questions and concerns. So after extensive research we came across Sloan, she was so professional. The amount of information she provided at our first meeting set her apart and became the deciding factor to hiring her. She just made us feel so comfortable. She was with us at the time of labor and leading up to it, explaining how the birth would go and what to expect. Unfortunately, I had some complications; Sloan was there guiding us, holding my hand and offering suggestions. It's what kept us so calm and pushing forward. She was so encouraging and gentle. Just a wonderful soul! She even assisted with getting my son to latch on for a feeding when the nurse was busy. I am currently pregnant and did not hesitate to rehire Sloan. I know with her methods and expertise that I'm in good hands. Going into an unknown situation, she just made the entire experience so positive. Would definitely recommend Sloan for before, during and after labor!

My name is Shakila Marando, and I am the founder of DOULAS by the BAY. I am a mother of two and have spent over 25 years working with children and families, including the last 17 years supporting families as a doula through pregnancy, birth, and the early newborn days. This work comes from a deep belief that no family should ever feel alone during this journey. I work closely alongside our team of doulas, sharing the same commitment to compassionate, evidence-based care. Together, we have supported thousands of families across Northern and Southern California, providing steady guidance, reassurance, and hands-on support when it matters most. Our doulas are carefully selected, certified, and deeply cared for. Every team member is Birth and Postpartum Certified, Perinatal Mood Disorders Certified, CPR trained, HIPAA compliant, fully vetted, and insured. With ongoing mentorship and professional development, we ensure families receive safe, reliable, and heart-centered care in their homes. I created DOULAS by the BAY to build a trusted, supportive space where families feel seen, informed, and confident—while expanding access to doula care and strengthening our community, one family at a time.

Shakila is the best there is. We did not have a night doula for our first child. For our second, we needed one because I had to go back to work right away. I was very nervous about leaving my baby with someone else during the night hours, particularly at just two weeks. Shakila let me control as much of the process as I wanted to so I always felt like she was doing what I wanted. She has a magical touch with babies and had our daughter sleeping through the night by two months old. She would not even leave in the morning until the baby was back to sleep, which allowed us an extra hour of sleep on top of the time she was with us. She was worth every penny and then some. THANK YOU SHAKILA! We miss you.

Hi! My name is Evelin Souza, and I am a Certified Postpartum Doula serving Walnut Creek and surrounding East Bay communities. I have been supporting mothers and newborns since becoming certified in 2021. Over the years, I have had the privilege of caring for many families and newborns, especially through overnight support, and I can provide excellent professional references. I would describe myself as calm, patient, nurturing, respectful, flexible, and professional. I believe every family is unique, so I always take the time to understand what is important to each parent and adapt my support to their individual needs, preferences, and parenting choices. I provide judgment-free support and want parents to feel comfortable and supported in my presence. During overnight care, my goal is to create a calm and peaceful environment where parents can rest and recover while knowing their baby is being cared for with love and attention. I have extensive experience with newborn care, feeding support, bottle feeding, soothing, diapering, burping, newborn cues, and helping parents better understand their baby’s needs and feel more confident as they navigate the newborn stage. I also support breastfeeding mothers within my scope as a postpartum doula while fully respecting every family’s feeding choices. I believe caring for the mother is just as important as caring for the baby. I am a good listener and provide a safe and compassionate space for mothers to talk, feel heard, and feel supported during the emotional transition into motherhood. When something is beyond my scope, I encourage families to connect with the appropriate professional support. I am also a Certified Massage Therapist specializing in lymphatic drainage, which has given me an even deeper appreciation for postpartum recovery and caring for mothers as a whole. Above all, I want the families I support to feel safe, respected, cared for, and more rested. It is very special to me to become a trusted part of a family’s support system during such an important chapter of their lives.

I am a certified postpartum doula with +6y of hands-on experience supporting families and caring for newborns and children. My approach is grounded in respect, emotional safety, and evidence-based care. I believe the postpartum period is a sacred transition—one that deserves patience, gentleness, and knowledgeable support. My role is to help families feel confident, informed, and truly supported as they recover, bond, and find their own rhythm at home. My philosophy centers on meeting each family where they are. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all parenting; instead, I honor each family’s values, culture, and instincts while offering practical guidance and calm reassurance. I focus on nurturing both the baby and the parents—supporting feeding, sleep, recovery, and emotional wellbeing—so families can feel empowered rather than overwhelmed. My goal is always to create a peaceful, judgment-free environment where parents feel seen, heard, and capable during one of the most important chapters of their lives.

Nathalia is the best! She has a sweet and gentle demeanor which puts babies and parents at ease. She is incredibly thoughtful and insightful, and made several recommendations to help us sleep longer (our main priority), which really helped. She also immediately identified a deeper issue I’d been having related to milk supply and raised it incredibly tactfully and helped me move past it. If you’re looking for someone who will truly take care of you and your family, look no further!
