It is with pleasure that I write this review for Veronica Hinojosa, who served as my postpartum doula and night nurse. During one of the most vulnerable times in my life, Veronica’s motherly presence provided an immense sense of comfort and reassurance. Her warmth, kindness, and professionalism made all the difference in my postpartum journey. Veronica’s expertise and guidance were invaluable, particularly when it came to bottle feeding and establishing a daytime nap routine. Her advice was practical and effective, helping us create a rhythm that worked well for our baby. More than anything, I always felt secure knowing my little one was in her capable hands. Her natural talent for soothing and caring for infants gave me the peace of mind to truly rest and recharge for the following day. Additionally, Veronica’s dedication extended beyond her own services—when she was unavailable, she ensured we had reliable backup care through one of her trusted associates. This level of commitment and foresight further demonstrated her professionalism and reliability. I am incredibly grateful for Veronica’s support and would recommend her to any family in need of a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dependable postpartum doula or night nurse. She has been an invaluable part of our early parenting experience, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

To me the most important thing about this work is the human touch. Having grown up attending births in my family, I am a supportive, intuitive experienced doula who centers the whole family. You are the parent, not the patient to me. I focus on helping you move your body in ways that will help bring the baby down, using my hands, heart, and breath work at the center of my care. I have experience with many community births at home and in birthing centers (Simi Valley Birth Center and the Brooklyn Birthing Center), as well was with many hospital births in Los Angeles, Ventura, New York City, and Seattle. I am passionate about giving normal, humanizing service and advocacy to disabled and high risk parents to center your voice, needs, and access from start to finish. In order to provide a stronger service within the disability community, I work with a partner or group.

Working with Alison was a wonderful experience. From the beginning moments of telling her about my pregnancy through to the post natal experience, she showed her strong intuitive skills, used her sense of humor and was able to guide us through this wondrous process. Alison was especially helpful at offering clarity around my choices in labor and especially a strong supporter when I felt pressure from my team of doctors to take the epidural. Alison reminded me that I had a choice and that freed me to make the right decision for me. Alison was also adept at councelling my husband and I throughout our pre labor experience around the myriad of changes, emotions, wonders and fear that having a child brought up for us. She always provided a safe environment for us that was healing, engaging and fun. Alison used her intuition to guide us in working together as a couple and was able to read exactly what we needed individually and together. Alison used her own weatlth of knowledge from various areas in her life to support us and remind us of the constant flow that occurs in labor and in child rearing. This helped me to trust in the process; something I am not always great at! Her kindness and ability to be present and focused was an immense help to me in the delivery room. From talking a family member away from the delivery room, to navigating doctors, to coaching my husband to helping me and giving me space when needed was amazing. I happily and whole heartedly recommend Alsion to work with as a birthing partner and aly on the birth journey.

Mara was wonderful!!! I was such a hormonal mess getting home from the hospital, and Mara helped me so much. I was afraid to let anyone hold my baby, but Mara was an exception. She was trustworthy in every way. She was a warm presence in our home. I also credit my baby sleeping through the night to Mara's nightly tending to him. She taught him patience and self-settling. I'm very grateful!

Recent review

Hiring an overnight doula from Peaceful Passages was one of the best decisions I made for my postpartum recovery. Not only did my doula lovingly care for me and my newborn, she went above and beyond—prepping nourishing meals, providing breastfeeding support, organizing the baby’s nursery, and even helping with my twin toddlers so I could rest. Her calm, professional presence made my healing after a c-section so much easier. I was especially impressed by how seamless everything was—she was professionally dressed, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. On top of that, Peaceful Passages accepted my Carrot insurance and handled all the billing with ease, which lifted such a burden off my shoulders. This service was truly a lifesaver for me and my family. I felt cared for, supported, and able to focus on bonding with my baby. I can’t recommend their overnight doula services enough!

I am an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant, parent educator, and mother of four with personal experience breastfeeding my four children through a variety of challenges for about six years. My nursing experience includes two years in NICU. I'm not currently licensed in California as a registered nurse. As a new mother, I was so thankful to have in-home support. This is the same model I have developed my lactation services on. Early and often works well for establishing your milk supply. It also works well to provide support to new parents as they adjust to life with a new baby. I provide free ongoing follow-up support to all consultations to help you embrace motherhood with confidence.

I became a doula to not only heal from my traumatic birth expirence but also to help others hopefully avoid one all together. We as moms don't always have a village and if we do they might not have all the facts . I want to be that village for your family and help YOU make the best choices for YOUR family and YOUR baby.

"We had a homebirth after my traumatic hospital birth and she clarified everything for me . She made the environment so calming and powerful that I honestly had *almost* no pain up until transition. We did the gold plan and it was worth every penny especially with a goody bag on babies "birthday" " - copied and pasted for the client by the owner

hi! i was birthed into a mother 9 years ago and had an exceptional experience with a midwife & doula at a birthing center. it changed my life forever. after that, i became super passionate with educating women on their options for prenatal, labor, and postpartum. i created a guidebook for each and took a doula certification course during covid, so it was a weekend course and virtual. i still have my books to this day! i’m from a small town in south carolina where doula wasn’t widely known. i’ve helped friends along the way and am seeking to fulfill my passions in this realm here in orange county! i am a freelance artist as well specializing in many mediums. i’m so excited to meet you and provide all that i have to offer! 👩‍🍼🤰
