I am a Korean-American mom of 3 bi-racial children who are all 1 year apart and entering their teen years. My own experiences have informed my practice of working with women who are pregnant for the first or 3rd time, new parents and seasoned parents who are managing the challenges of balancing the many aspects of raising kids whether in a partnership or as a single parent. Though I'm trained in various modalities to treat perinatal mood disorders and use a trauma informed, integrative approach, in my practice it's the human connection that is prioritized.

Hi! My name is Sara, I am a Registered Nurse (RN-BSN) and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I am also a mother of two and a military spouse. When breastfeeding both of my children I was not prepared for all of the issues that could occur! Milk supply concerns, pumping when returning to work, clogged ducts, fussy baby, the list goes on! I have years of experience in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as well as the Newborn Nursery. Being a nurse and working with babies is where I am meant to be! While working in the NICU I found my passion for helping breastfeeding mothers. So I decided to study to become a Lactation Consultant. This allowed me to provide the best care for mothers and babies struggling with lactation issues. I absolutely LOVE being able to assist mothers initiate breastfeeding with their babies in the hospital setting. But I know when you leave the hospital some new challenges may arise. When the nurses and Lactation Consultants can’t be at your bedside, who do you call? Well I am here to help!

Please reach out to me through my instagram: @sddarlingdoula or email: sddarlingdoula@gmail.com Hi I’m Summer! I’m a Birth Doula passionate about giving parents the tools they need to advocate for themselves and their birthing choices! I first decided to become a Doula after hearing countless stories of doctors pressuring unnecessary interventions, making what should be the most special day of your life, into a traumatic experience. I was struck by how susceptible new parents can be to misinformation, and my goal as a doula is to eliminate that uncertainty and foster a loving and safe birthing environment for mother and child. Of course the most important thing is that mama and baby are healthy, but that’s not the only important thing. I believe that as a mother your instinct is just as strong as that fetal ejection reflex 💪🏽 and my job is to help you listen to it. I absolutely love being a doula and am so excited to support more families through this amazing journey. I would love to connect so please feel free to reach out anytime! 🌻✨

I've been a birth doula for 35 years (I started young!) and I am also a childbirth educator. I got into doula work to advocate so that you can have the best birth possible. I am certified in Spiningbabies, the Rebozo Technique and in Acupuncture. I have always said.....this is your baby, your body and your birth and I'm there to support you in however and wherever you want to birth. I want to make sure that your spouse/partner also feels supported and cared for also. I live in Oceanside and serve San Diego County.

Hello! I am a Christian birth doula located in Santee. My mom was a doula and she inspired me to be one also. I've been a doula for a year and have served 5 clients. I love being a doula!

Im 19 and recently finished getting my certification as a Holistic Pregnancy and Birth Practitioner. I have been a nanny for a little over two years and I really enjoy the work and kiddos. I started with one of the families while they were pregnant with baby number 2 and was able to offer mom the chance to rest or spend 1:1 time with baby and I really enjoyed it. With my recent training I am hoping to use it and get into become a birth/postpartum doula. I want to offer my services and a lower price while I help with my first births and learn what to fully expect outside of the classroom. I feel more connected to postpartum work and being able to nurture the parents, whether that be pre-birth to “nest” for baby, find meals to prep/cook postpartum, basic housework like dishes and laundry and even some potential grocery shopping for those first few weeks when it’s not ideal to take baby out. I like to create a judgement free zone and am open to all styles of life but am more in the middle of lightly holistic and following modern medicine and recommendations but I am ultimately here to support parents decision.

Hey there! My name is Ariel Gallop and I’m a doctor of physical therapy with specialized training in pelvic therapy. I grew up in Austin, Texas but moved to California for the beach bonfires (and grad school). I got into the PT profession after getting into a pretty bad boating accident. I was in PT for over a year relearning to walk and got to see many different types of PT. I was fascinated by the various facets of PT. I love getting to meet people where they are and walk alongside them on their journey to living their best life. I am passionate about pelvic therapy because it provides a holistic approach to treat all people with inclusive care that finds the driver of their pain or dysfunction. I started Restore Pelvic Therapy because I wanted to be able to provide patient centric care, that is evidence based, and alter my plan of care based on what the patients need instead of what was strictly outlined by insurance companies. My passion in life is getting to work with people to improve their function in order to fully participate in life’s best moments. I want you to always feel empowered and heard. I am passionate about pelvic therapy because I believe everyone should live a symptom free life with dignity and without having to settle for "living with it". At Restore Pelvic Therapy we treat everything from male or female pelvic pain, urinary stress or fecal incontinence, urgency and frequency, constipation or IBS, prolapse or hernias, people that are pregnant or postpartum, DRA (diastasis recti), painful bladder syndrome, pelvic congestion syndrome, post abdominal or pelvic surgeries (i.e. excision surgery, hysterectomy, prostatectomy, C-section, etc) and more! When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking, reading the next book club hit, walking along the beach listening to true crime podcasts, or biking around looking for the best burrito.
