I believe in sacredness of coming into parenthood and want to protect it, so that it can unfold in an undisturbed way, as much as possible, and this includes pregnancy, birth, and the ever-so- vulnerable postpartum period.

This leaves no space for judgment; only support and respect.

I come from a family of birth workers and OTs —so supporting people through this part of life has always felt familiar and important to me. Over time, I realized how much I care about helping people feel empowered and heard, especially during birth, when they need it most. I believe in practical, down-to-earth support that combines knowledge, empathy, and a warm presence (plus a little humor when it’s needed). I try to meet each person where they are and support the kind of birth they want—whether that’s quiet and private or full of conversation and teamwork. To me, birth is a shared experience, but the birthing person is always at the center. I see my role as making sure they feel respected, cared for, and in charge of their experience.

Hi! I’m Rechelle, a trained postpartum doula and newborn care specialist based in Long Beach, CA. Growing up in Victorville, an underserved community with limited access to OB/GYNs and specialized care, shaped my passion for maternal health and advocacy. My journey into postpartum support began with an internship at Black Infant Health, where I saw firsthand the impact of culturally relevant care, especially for Black families facing higher risks and poor health outcomes. I trained with the DNT Network, a program that prepares doulas to provide high-quality, evidence-based postpartum and newborn care, because I value relationship-centered, accurate, and accessible care for every family. My background in public health, combined with personal experience supporting my brother who has special needs, has shown me the gaps families face and inspired my mission to close them. As a doula, my philosophy is simple: every family deserves compassionate, personalized support. I work closely with families to provide postpartum care in ways that are grounded, practical, and nurturing. Whether it’s feeding, soothing, sleep, light household tasks, or emotional support, my focus is on practical care that makes your nights easier. My mission is to reduce maternal health disparities while honoring the unique needs of each family I serve.

Hello, I’m Chris Hinkley. I’ve been married for 40 years, and I’m the proud mom of three grown sons and a grandma to one sweet grandson. Family has always been at the center of my life, and it’s what inspired me to dedicate my work to supporting new parents. As a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, I love coming alongside families during those tender first months. My heart is to help you feel rested, supported, and confident as you learn to care for your little one. I combine practical newborn care and healthy sleep foundations with gentle encouragement—because I believe parents thrive best when they feel both capable and cared for. Every family is unique, and I tailor my approach to your needs and values. Whether you need help with feedings, sleep routines, or just a calm presence in your home, I’m here to make the transition smoother. My greatest joy is watching parents grow in confidence, knowing they can not only get through the newborn stage—but truly enjoy it.

My passion for birth work began long before I knew what a doula was. I’ve always been drawn to mothers and deeply curious about pregnancy, how it transforms the body, mind, and spirit. I grew up knowing my mother’s birth stories by heart, and even then I sensed that she deserved more compassionate care and stronger advocacy. In college, a course called Pregnancy and Power opened my eyes to the realities of the U.S. maternal healthcare system and the consequences of highly medicalized childbirth. Hearing doulas and midwives speak about their work and the purpose behind it sparked something deep in me. I had never felt more aligned with a calling. Following that pull, I completed my birth and postpartum doula certification through Bini Birth in Sherman Oaks. Learning from Kathrin Auger and Ana Paula Markel only affirmed that this is the work I am meant to do. As a doula, my role is to support you in connecting with your own innate strength, intuition, and wisdom so you can make informed choices for yourself and your baby. Every mother deserves to be seen, heard, and supported without judgement. My goal is to hold space for you, steadily and compassionately, so you can birth and parent from a place of confidence, peace, and love.
