Hi! My name is Joefin Peter. I am a certified reproductive-spectrum doula (labour/birth, postpartum, fertility, loss/abortion) & sexual health educator. When we say it takes a village to raise a child, we often forget that it actually takes a village to support new parents. I hope to be a part of your community! In my opinion, creating community starts with a "home away from home". I have a passion for supporting diasporic families, third-culture kids, and immigrants like myself. My specialty is blending science and cultural practices. Racialized individuals can feel isolated and helpless as a result of immigration, acculturation, and individualization. These feelings are then magnified when dealing with sexual & reproductive health. This is where I come in! I aim to be a reliable source of education, support, and comfort. I operate from a feminist, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed lens.

Joefin did an incredible job in supporting my birth journey! The pre birth sessions were far superior than any birthing classes I’ve attended in the past. She prepared me for what to expect thoroughly and went through all my history and birth preferences. During labour, Joefin suggested multiple approaches, positions and tactics to help me along the way. She had my best interests at heart, was observant of me during the process and questioned hospital staff as needed. She worked well with my family during my lengthy birth. I highly recommend Joefin, she is knowledgeable, friendly and comfortable to be around!

Hello, I am a certified Postpartum Doula living in West LA with my husband and two children. Since becoming a mother myself, I’ve realized I have a nurturing spirit inside me. As your postpartum doula, I will be there supporting and educating you through the first 4 to 6 weeks after welcoming your new baby, and provide you a safe, empowering space for you to bond with your baby and heal both mentally and physically after birth.

As first-time parents without a local support system, hiring Kate as our postpartum doula was one of the best decisions we made. From the very first day, her warm, kind, and calming presence instantly put our minds at ease during what can be an overwhelming transition. Kate is incredibly knowledgeable and informative, and she taught us so much about caring for our baby—always in a way that felt supportive and never judgmental. Over the first couple of months of our son’s life, Kate truly felt like a member of our family. She guided us through early parenthood with compassion and confidence, helping us navigate everything from soothing our baby and changing diapers to cooking delicious meals and simply being a steady shoulder to lean on. Thanks to her, we now feel equipped and confident as parents, and we know we can always rely on Kate as a trusted helping hand. We 100% recommend Kate to any parents, especially first-timers. Thank you, Kate!

I have always been passionate about helping those expecting and their loved ones learn how to advocate for their needs. I am currently in my Doula Certification program, but have helped families for many years. Through my travels and lived experiences in and out of the U.S, I bring knowledge and wisdom from many cultures, including my own Caribbean heritage. My goal is to teach those who are expecting how to listen to their bodies, take care of their needs inside and out, and have the type of birth that they have always imagined. I also support families through changes that may occur during labor and delivery by assisting in creating flexible birth plans. In case of postpartum and bereavement, I provide care, sensitivity, and tools focused on grieving. I am here to support you and cheer you on as an advocate and loving birth assistant.

We are beyond grateful for the support and care we received from Mrs. Shanicqua. Throughout our pregnancy and postpartum journey. From the very beginning, she provided incredible insight on nutrition, breastfeeding, and what to realistically expect during both pregnancy and postpartum. Her knowledge gave us confidence, but more importantly, her presence gave us peace. She has a true gift for supporting families — not just with information, but with compassion. During postpartum, when emotions can feel overwhelming, she was a steady voice of reassurance and encouragement. She helped us navigate those feelings in a healthy way and has always made herself available when we needed guidance. Beyond being an amazing doula, she has also been such a supportive and genuine friend to us in this process. Her care never felt transactional — it felt personal, intentional, and deeply invested in our well-being as a growing family. We truly couldn’t imagine this journey without her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for knowledgeable, compassionate, and heartfelt doula support.

I’m Amanda :) I’m a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula with 20 years of experience as a caregiver supporting families and caring for children from the newborn stage through early childhood (and beyond). I bring a warm, calm, and intuitive approach to helping babies—and parents—feel cared for, supported, and loved. I loved completing my training to become a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, deepening my skills in newborn sleep, feeding, recovery support, multiples care and gentle nighttime routines. Families often describe me as a “baby whisperer” and “real-life Mary Poppins.” I have a background in teaching, psychology, and Master Life Coaching, with studies in child development, attachment, trauma-informed care, and emotional regulation—all of which guide my responsive, heart-centered approach. I’m Infant/Child/Adult CPR certified and experienced in supporting healthy sleep routines, emotional attunement, and nurturing environments. My care style is gentle, playful, and grounded in child-centred connection. Whether I’m feeding, burping & soothing a newborn, playing with a toddler (helping soothe tantrums or find ease & connection in transitions), or helping parents find more play or rest in parenting, I bring compassion and genuine love for the work I do & the families I get to care for. When I’m not with little ones, I also support parents and children as a Play-Based Healer and Family Coach, helping families navigate big emotions, communication, and connection. If you’re looking for calm, caring daytime infant/postpartum care or nighttime support for your baby (or babies!), I’d love to be part of your family’s journey. 💜 Supporting families in these early days & being part of your family's care team is truly an honour. I look forward to getting to know you & your little one(s)! :)

We interviewed a few doulas before choosing Damiana, and she immediately stood out as someone who really understood us and made us feel comfortable. She was warm, thoughtful, and even offered a reference, which was really helpful in making our decision.<br><br>We started working with her about 2.5months before the birth, and she was incredibly supportive throughout. She met with us weekly, helped us put together a solid birth plan, and really took the time to make sure we felt emotionally ready (not just prepared for labor, but ready for the whole experience).<br><br>Also, she met us at the hospital shortly after we arrived at the hospital when I went into labor and was incredibly supportive. It was our 1st birth, and having her there to guide both me and my husband through everything made a huge difference. She was so reassuring and helpful. I honestly can’t imagine doing it without her.<br><br>So grateful to have had Damiana as part of our birth team. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and truly supportive birth doula.

Hi, I'm Maribel. A DONA International Certified Doula and Birth Photographer based in Southern California. My work lives at the intersection of stewardship and artistry—offering both grounded support and honest, meaningful images that reflect the real story of your birth. Whether I’m holding space at your side or quietly documenting the moment, my intention is the same: that you feel safe, seen, and empowered throughout your journey. Clients often tell me I bring a calm, reassuring energy and photographs that help them remember not just what it looked like, but what it felt like to bring their baby into the world. This calling lights me up like no other profession ever has, and I’m honored to walk alongside you, offering heart, skill, and presence every step of the way.

Maribel was amazing. As a first time mom, Maribel listened to my goals and wishes to have an epidural free delivery. She provided my husband and I the support and guidance pre baby, during active labor and available for extra support post baby. I was fortunate to have Maribel give me direction for Hypno birthing which I was also very interested in. I successfully gave birth to a beautiful baby boy without an epidural - couldn’t have done it without Maribel’s help. We genuinely appreciate her time, sincere personality, and professionalism. She is very sweet, patient and we were so lucky to find her!
