Hi, I’m Ari 🤍 I’m a birth and postpartum doula rooted in community care, informed choice, and gentle support. I believe every family deserves to feel seen, heard, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, no matter their background or circumstances. My approach is calm, grounding, and judgment-free. I support families by offering emotional reassurance, evidence-based education, advocacy, and hands-on comfort throughout labor and the postpartum period. I also offer flexible pricing, payment plans, and “pay what you can” options because access to support matters. I’m honored to walk alongside you as you prepare for one of life’s most transformative experiences 🤍

Working with Ariana felt like having a steady, supportive friend who also really knew her stuff. From the very beginning, she created a space where I felt safe asking questions, expressing concerns, and making decisions that felt right for me. She never pushed an agenda or made me feel pressured instead, she listened deeply, shared thoughtful and evidence-based information, and supported my choices every step of the way. Her presence during labor was incredibly grounding. Whenever I felt anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure, Ariana had a way of calming the room and helping me refocus. She offered reassurance, comfort, and gentle guidance exactly when I needed it. I always felt respected, informed, and empowered with her by my side. I am beyond grateful to have had Ariana as part of my birth team. Her care, compassion, and calm energy made such a meaningful difference in my experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for truly supportive, judgment-free doula care.

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.

Courtney Falcon was our back up doula for our second child, but it ended up being a great experience and possibly even kismet. We were very lucky to have someone take charge in a warm and loving manner. We felt supported every step of the way. She even stayed many late hours after the birth to help make sure our son was stable and didn't have to go to the NICU. Without her diligence, our child wouldn't have been able to avoid the NICU- she was a godsend. She's extremely knowledgeable, and is always looking to expand her learning. She was always providing us with more resources than we even knew we needed, and not just about babies, but about child/toddler behavior as well. Courtney is also excellent with babies and children, and provided some child care to our family during our times of need. With her previous background working with kids, we felt our kids were in the best of hands. We cannot recommend Courtney Falcon enough to be your doula, please book her today!

My name is Lisa and I’m a Certified Postpartum Doula (DONA) and Certified Lactation Educator Specialist (CLES) serving the Los Angeles South Bay, Westside and surrounding areas. I provide nurturing, informed care, assistance, and resources to you, your baby and family as you navigate the postpartum period. As your postpartum doula, my goal is to provide physical and emotional support through what is undoubtedly one of the most profoundly transformational and magical periods of your life. I want you to feel nourished, confident, and empowered to tune in to your own intuition and trust your instincts.

Lisa is a phenomenal postpartum doula! We wish she could have been our PP doula for longer than the four weeks we signed up for. She is an amazing coach for first-time parents—we learned so much from her. Lisa helped us establish a healthy sleep/wake rhythm with our baby, and her lactation and nursing knowledge helped me nurse more efficiently and confidently. With her support, I even took my very first walk around the block with my baby. On top of all that, Lisa is a fantastic chef—she made us a delicious soup that covered dinner for an entire week! Lisa is incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and reassuring all at once. We are so grateful and lucky to have had her as part of our journey into parenthood. We truly wish she could have been our doula for longer!

With over twenty five years' experience as an NCS(newborn care specialist), CPPD(certified postpartum doula), & Certified Lactation Educator Counselor, I aspire to be a calming, nonjudgmental  and supportive presence for parents during the first few weeks/months with their newborn(s). I do this with kind and straightforward coaching and assistance in lactation, newborn care, sleep facilitation and other areas of a new baby's development.  Looking forward to helping you navigate the start of your exciting journey into parenthood.

We highly recommend Melanie, whose expertise in newborn care, CPR training, and lactation support was invaluable to us as first-time parents. Melanie was our trusted source of advice, education, and guidance for both our son’s care and my postpartum recovery. Melanie’s meticulousness, thoughtfulness, and nurturing approach was transformative. Under her guidance, I navigated breastfeeding successfully and our son developed positive sleep habits by 8 weeks, allowing him to sleep through the night. Melanie’s calm and reassuring presence replaced any anxiety we had with confidence and peace of mind from the moment we arrived home. Her support allowed us time to focus on healing, bonding, and building confidence as new parents—gifts we are deeply grateful for. Melanie’s impact on our family’s well-being was immeasurable, giving us the best start possible.

At Birth by Brit I believe that birth and feeding should feel supported, empowered, and even a little magical. I’m here for you to be there every step of the way from pregnancy, birth and beyond with non-judgmental and evidence based care. My business is led by me, a nurse, lactation counselor, and parent who knows the beauty and chaos of this season firsthand. I have been an OB nurse for the past 7 years, a lactation counselor the last 4 years and a mom of 2. I lead with compassion and have a strong belief in tailoring your care to YOU and your individual needs. My philosophy is that education is empowerment. I fully believe that feeling prepared and educated early on brings such a sense of calm and control your birthing space. I proudly serve all birthing people and families, honoring every identity, body, and background with inclusive care. I offer both virtual and in person services to be able to support families with a variety of budgets

I cannot recommend Brit highly enough. I found her at 36 weeks when I realized I had a lot of anxiety about giving birth in a hospital setting, and she completely transformed my experience. Brit took the time to thoroughly educate me about all the potential interventions I might encounter at the hospital, which helped me feel informed and prepared rather than fearful. During my 29-hour labor, she was there for nearly the entire time, providing steady, calm support exactly when I needed it most. What made Brit truly exceptional was how she empowered both my husband and me to advocate for ourselves. When we needed to request a change in our attending nurse, she helped us navigate that conversation. She guided us in understanding what kinds of support and interventions were right for us, always centering my preferences and comfort. Having Brit on my team made all the difference—I felt like an active participant in my own birth rather than something happening to me. She helped me reclaim my birth experience and feel confident in my choices. If you're looking for a doula who will educate, support, and empower you through one of life's most intense experiences, Brit is your woman!

Donna Moragne-Hanson

Hello Everyone! My name is Donna Moragne-Hanson and I am a licensed midwife in Los Angeles, CA. I provide well-woman, prenatal and postpartum care as well as the opportunity to labor in a birthing suite in the secure privacy of my home. In addition I offer childbirth education classes as well as Ala-carte Newborn and Postpartum care packages. For me, establishing trust with my client is the most fundamental and important. My practice is built on nurturing trust and learning to let go of the things we allow to interfere with trust. I want to encourage trusting in yourself; trusting in your body (and the natural process of giving birth); trusting in your baby (and their own divinely written birth story); trusting in humanity (and the world your baby is born into) and trusting in our partnership; as client and midwife. I believe, when a woman is heard, she is seen; when she is seen, she has a voice; and as her midwife I am compelled to encourage her to honor that voice; her voice. In this way I believe I am blessed with an opportunity to fulfill my role as supporter, facilitator, educator and client advocate; the ultimate calling of a midwife. For me, describing the process of birth is like trying to describe a miracle; and walking with a woman as she becomes a mother is even more profound…I am beyond words. Donna, LM, CPM

Donna gave me the confidence and calm I needed for my first birth. She was there every step of the way to answer all my questions, no matter how silly! My doctor was very impressed with how prepared and informed I was. I would love to work with Donna again.
