Hi there! If you’re looking for overnight newborn care, I’d be delighted to help. My name is Maria, and I am a Certified Newborn Care Specialist (NCS, also known as a night nanny or night nurse), Postpartum Doula, Sleep Consultant, and a Certified Lactation Educator Counselor. I specialize in overnight newborn care and currently have availability for nighttime positions. I bring extensive experience, a genuine passion for caring for newborns, and a nurturing, patient, and understanding approach that parents trust.

I am CPR & First Aid Pediatric certified, TrustLine certified, fully immunized (including COVID-19), and able to travel anywhere within Los Angeles County. My mission is to provide newborns and families with safe, compassionate, and individualized care, ensuring both baby and parents rest easy. I would love the opportunity to support your family and make those first weeks with your newborn as smooth and restful as possible.

If you’re reading this, hire her. Maria is the best decision we made when we found out our first pregnancy was twins. Speaking to her took away my fears of two babies at once and as soon as they were home she took wonderful care of them. She got us on a schedule, was wonderful with my NICU baby, helped get them sleeping long stretches, and supported a medical issue that impacted ability to feed. Our newborn experience was so much better with her here. She’s also really easy to have in your home and I enjoyed her immensely. One tip for twin moms- account for adjusted age when determining contract length because it really does take 12 weeks adjusted to sleep full nights!

I’m Curtrelle! Your Certified Doula, and Lactation Educator! Nice to meet you! I am an adventurer, fitness and wellness enthusiast, foodie, intermediate snowboarder, and a Registered Nurse of 10+ years, with a passion for service and maternal and public health equity. My mission? To empower you and your family as you navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. To make sure your birth and postpartum plans are clearly communicated. My method? Providing wrap-around, holistic, and evidence-based support and education. My why? We deserve BETTER! Birthing people, ESPECIALLY, Black, Indigenous, POC, and LBGTQ+, deserve better birthing outcomes! As a health equity and justice advocate, I believe in safe, sacred, collaborative, and informed birthing experiences for ALL birthing people, whether it be inside or outside of the hospital.

Recent review

Working with Curtrelle made my birthing experience so much better than I could’ve imagined. As a first time mom, I was overwhelmed with the amount of information I was receiving from doctors, relatives and my social media. Curtrelle was instrumental in keeping both my partner and I calm, informed, and hopeful throughout the entire birthing process. Her techniques, presence and overall explanation of the process beforehand during and after were incredibly helpful for two new parents who felt lost in a sea of information. We truly feel she was the reason we had such a great birthing experience and we loved her demeanor not just with us, but with the people we decided to include in the process as well. I highly recommend anyone looking for a doula that is informed, calming, reassuring, and overall great person to work with Curtrelle.

With years of experience as a midwife and birth professional, I support families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with a holistic, grounded approach that honors both physiology and personal choice. Whether you are planning a home birth, hospital birth, birth center delivery, medicated or unmedicated experience, my role is to help you feel fully prepared — physically, emotionally, and mentally — for the birth you desire. My pregnancy bodywork sessions are designed to support optimal fetal positioning, pelvic balance, and nervous system regulation. When the body is aligned and tension patterns are released, babies can settle into ideal positions and labor often unfolds more smoothly. A regulated nervous system allows you to feel safer, more present, and more empowered — which can significantly impact both birth and postpartum recovery. In addition to hands-on bodywork, I offer comprehensive childbirth education that prepares you for the realities of labor, informed decision-making, partner support, and postpartum recovery. My goal is not to push a specific birth path, but to equip you with knowledge, confidence, and tools so you can navigate your experience feeling supported and in control. I bring both clinical insight and steady presence. I understand the nuances of hospital systems and home birth environments, and I help families advocate for themselves while staying connected to their intuition. Birth is a rite of passage — and preparation matters. When your body is balanced, your nervous system is regulated, and your mind is informed, you enter birth grounded and ready. It is an honor to walk alongside families as they prepare to welcome their babies and step into parenthood with confidence.

As a mother of four, I bring both personal and professional experience to my work, offering compassionate, nonjudgmental support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My background as a personal trainer with a specialty in perinatal exercise, combined with my work as a health coach, allows me to support my clients holistically, physically, mentally, and emotionally. I believe that preparation and education are powerful tools, and I strive to help every woman feel informed, confident, and connected to her body throughout her journey. I am deeply committed to advocating for the women I serve. My goal is to help you feel seen, heard, and empowered as you make decisions that align with your values and vision for your birth. Whether you desire a calm, supported labor, guidance through the unknown, or reassurance in your strength, I am honored to walk alongside you. Every birth is unique, and it is my mission to help you approach yours feeling confident, focused, educated, and empowered.

Annie was my doula for the birth of my son in December 2024. This was my first baby so I was nervous about what birth would be like and if I could handle it since I wanted to go all natural. The hospital referred us to a list of doulas and after interviewing several, we met Annie. After we hung up the phone, my husband and I immediately said, "This is the one!" Leading up to the delivery day we met with her to discuss our birth plans and what we hoped for. It was a very positive and helpful meeting. She brought up things I wouldn't have thought to consider. When I went into labor, she and my husband were texting and she made her way quickly when we said we were ready for the extra support. She had different tools - tens unit, pressure holds, belly sling, diffuser/oils, and a lot more that I can't recall. Even more than the physical things she brought to support me, her presence was an incredible blessing. She is very good at adapting to the mood of the room. I wanted a quiet, dark environment and her calm, reassuring presence was exactly what I needed. She would suggest trying something new when she could tell I was starting to have a hard time getting through contractions, but would also give me space when I didn't want anyone near me or touching me. As I'd requested during our planning session, she and my husband worked together to support me throughout labor and they would quietly check in with each other about how I was doing and if they thought it was time to try something else. I wanted my husband to be my primary support person and Annie did a great job of coaching him and having a balance between supporting me and giving my husband and I space when I wanted it. They made a great team for me! Lastly, she has endurance! It was a long labor and she was with us for over 10 hours of it. She kept up her quiet, calm energy throughout and continued to support me physically too (like with holding my belly up in the sling or doing pressure squeezes on my forehead) for hours. That must have been tiring but she never gave any indication that it was. I am so grateful for her involvement in the birth of our son. I truly could not have done it without the support of Annie - she was amazing! I absolutely want her there for the birth of our future babies and would recommend her to anyone!

I believe with every conviction that mothers hold innate wisdom to birth their babies. , I honor your intuition through holistic care and embodied practice—supporting you through pregnancy, birth, and the sacred postpartum transition. As your Sister in Christ, I offer faith-based birth support for those wanting so. We approach your labor as an act of worship—leaning on prayer and rejoicing to reveal God's strength and love for you. I am a community-first birthworker, passionate about making holistic wellness, coaching, and education accessible to women in my community. My work blends embodied childbirth education and hands-on support across pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As a Birthing From Within–trained mentor, I offer education that goes far beyond information—our work honors the inner journey, emotional landscape, and transformation that birth invites. Alongside this, I provide holistic, nurturing care including herbal remedies, gentle bodywork, mindful movement, breathwork, and food as medicine—supporting the body’s natural physiology while tending to the nervous system and spirit. My Philosophy: Honoring the MotherBaby Dyad I intimately understand and uphold the crucial MotherBaby bond and believe in family-oriented care that follows natural instincts. This belief shapes every facet of my postpartum support and education: Attachment Parenting: I educate and support families in honoring bonding practices such as exclusive breastfeeding, safe bed-sharing/co-sleeping, elimination communication, and babywearing. Holistic Recovery: I offer nourishing, restorative care in the first 40 days, drawing from my training as a Postpartum Practitioner mentored by Pilar Chandler, Doctor of Ayurveda for Women’s Health. Lactation Philosophy: The Power of Human Milk I am deeply committed to the evidence supporting human milk as the optimal standard for infant nutrition. While I support all feeding choices with heart, my philosophy is rooted in the conviction that exclusive breastfeeding provides unparalleled protection and nourishment. This is not just "good"; scientific consensus confirms that breast is best for both maternal and infant health outcomes.

Our experience with Melanie was nothing short of exceptional. Melanie was our NCS from the day our son was born until 6 months of age. She truly operated as the Lead NCS for our household, setting the standard for everyone else and ensuring that everything ran seamlessly. Her level of organization was outstanding. Melanie was always proactive about keeping me informed on anything that needed restocking and made sure our home was consistently well prepared and fully supplied. Melanie’s commitment to hygiene and safety was a huge stand out for us. She maintained the highest standards of cleanliness in caring for our newborn and was incredibly diligent about safe sleep practices at all times, which gave us real peace of mind. Every night, she provided thoughtful, consistent updates so we always knew exactly how our son was doing. Melanie also took the initiative to organize and coordinate the nightly schedule between myself and the other staff, ensuring everyone was aligned and that care was consistent. All of our son’s feeding, sleeping, and changing items were always perfectly organized and ready, making everything feel effortless. Beyond technical skills, Melanie brought a level of professionalism and leadership that elevated our entire household. She truly ran a well-managed, attentive, and calm environment for our son, and we are incredibly grateful for the care and structure she provided during such an important time. We hope to have her back for baby #2!

If you value both evidence and intuition, I might be the doula for you. I love helping clients combine research and their own instincts to make decisions that are right for them. Furthermore, I might be the doula for you if you want support without an agenda. I don’t believe there’s an ideal way to approach birth or postpartum adjustment. I’m here to understand and support whatever path you want to take.

I had the privilege of having Glo as my birth and postpartum doula, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. As someone who had always been terrified of giving birth, I can honestly say that my birth experience was not only positive, but actually enjoyable—and that was 100% because of Glo. During our prenatal session, she took the time to educate both my husband and me on all things birth. We left feeling informed, confident, and empowered to advocate for ourselves and make decisions that felt right for our family. Glo was an incredible support throughout the process. She always made sure we understood our options and the evidence behind them, but never pushed us in any particular direction. Instead, she fully supported every decision we made, which made us feel respected, calm, and in control during such an important moment. Her postpartum support was just as amazing. She provided immense emotional support during those early weeks, along with practical help with our baby, thoughtful guidance, and even assistance with meal prep and grocery shopping. Having her there made such a difference during a time that can feel overwhelming. Glo truly helped shape our transition into parenthood into such a smooth, supported, and genuinely lovely experience. We are beyond grateful for her and feel so lucky to have had her by our side during this journey.

Hello everyone, my name is Momo Bass and I am a certified birth doula as well as a trained postpartum doula that serves the greater Los Angeles and Pasadena area. Aside from doing this rewarding work for a while, I am also a mama myself, to three amazing kiddos! When I'm not cheering on my kids at soccer practice, you'll likely find me tending to my ever-growing houseplant collection, or tending to myself at the gym. But my true passion lies in supporting families embarking on their incredible birthing journey. Motherhood is what threw me into the thralls of what it means to bring life into this world. It's this firsthand knowledge, coupled with my relentless curiosity about the miracle of birth and the transition into becoming a parent, that led me to become a birth and postpartum doula. Bringing my kiddos earth side became my superpower, and it’s become my mission to ignite that same fire in the families I work with. I believe that starts with finding judgment-free informational and emotional support, and I believe it starts when parents take back control of how their labor & postpartum experience goes by making informed decisions on what’s best for yourself and your growing family. “Everyone wants to hold the baby, but who will hold the mother/parents?” As a birth and postpartum doula, I will!

I had the pleasure of working alongside Monique as my co-doula, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional professional. Momo brings warmth, compassion, and unwavering dedication to every family she supports. Her calm demeanor and intuitive ability to anticipate the needs of both birthing parents and their partners make her a reliable and invaluable presence during such an important time. Working with Momo, I’ve seen firsthand how her knowledge, experience, and genuine care create a safe and empowering space for her clients. She has a natural gift for fostering connection and ensuring her clients feel heard, supported, and respected throughout their journey. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Momo by their side. She’s not just a doula but a true advocate and companion for the families she serves. Warmly, Maia S

I don’t even know where to begin lavishing praise on Angela. I had an unexpectedly long + challenging labor with my second — prodromal labor AND PROM — and I can confidently say I would not have mentally survived if not for Angela. From our initial meeting her warm, empathetic, compassionate + hilarious soul nearly lept through the screen. I scrambled to hire her + thank Whoever I did because I needed every drop of that soul she could spare! She went above + beyond my wildest expectations both in terms of standard doula care + personal commitment. She was so easy to talk to, always open and took some of the things we talked about and created the most beautiful trinkets out of them for my labor. I experienced a lot of doubt + despair in early labor, but it was beautifully calmed by Angela’s sympathetic, tender presence + the environment she effortlessly created in my room — even the nurses were awed by what she did. The moments that will stay with me forever are when I was in active labor + pushing. I birthed unmedicated, so was on another plane, but vividly remember Angela gently handing me things to squeeze right at the moment I needed it most. She jumped in when appropriate + stood back when needed as well. She was the absolute perfect person to be by my husband + my side. She helped us walk through all possibilities that were presented to us throughout in terms of induction, medication alternatives + she gave me the exact validation I needed right after my baby was born. I’ll never forget her encouragement + praise of me. There were some rough moments involving the medical staff, but Angela’s kindness + genuine caring is louder in my memory. Not only would you not regret hiring Angela, you will be including one of the most skilled, empathetic, resourceful, supportive, most beautiful people to be by your side for such a momentous time in in your life. You could not ask for a better person or doula. I’m honored she helped usher in my second baby + they will forever know her name.

I am a first time single mom and was worried about taking care of my daughter Emma, alone and recovering from birth at the same time. Violet helped me with both night and day shifts. Violets day shifts depended on my needs for the day. Some days she was just happy to make me lunch and do laundry for me and Emma. Some days I needed some time alone and she was there to do tummy time with Emma, put her down for naps, and sing to her. When she was on nights she was there to burp, change, and settle the baby down again after I breast fed her so I was able to sleep a little more. She always had cleaned any bottles she would use by the morning and would make us both coffee before I got up. She even gave me a slight discount knowing I didn't have a two income household witch helped me a lot in the long run.

Hi sweet mama, welcome — and congratulations on your beautiful bundle of joy! My name is Selina, and I am a spirit-filled Christian doula and postpartum doula with over 2 years experience certified through DONA who is deeply passionate about serving and supporting mothers during one of the most important moments of their lives. Pregnancy and birth can bring so many emotions, questions, and unknowns, but you do not have to walk this journey alone. My heart is to help you feel calm, confident, empowered, and fully supported every step of the way—whether you gives birth at home or in the hospital, medicated or unmedicated. I provide emotional, physical, and faith-based support with absolutely no judgment — just compassion, encouragement, and genuine care. I offer comfort measures, breathing techniques, visualization, labor support, spinning babies movements and continuous encouragement to help create a more peaceful and positive birth experience. My goal is for every mama I serve to feel heard, safe, educated, and cared for throughout her journey. During prenatal visits, I focus on education and preparation — I help you understand what to expect, clarify your preferences, and slow things down so you feel empowered and ready. When labor begins, I provide continuous emotional and physical support to help you feel grounded through each stage of the process. In the postpartum period, I meet you wherever you are — Sometimes that means feeding the baby while you pump, teaching you to pump, other times it’s just listening, making a snack, or simply admiring your baby with you. Birth is just the beginning. I’m here to support your whole transition into parenthood — with warmth, wisdom, and deep respect for your journey. Whether this is your first baby or your fifth, you deserve to feel supported, empowered, and loved during your birth experience. I would be honored to walk alongside you during this special season.

As a first time mama I had lots of questions and I means lots more then you could possibly imagine, god knew I needed someone like Selina . The night I was searching for my doula I came across many may doula pages and the moment I saw Selina’s profile my body filled with goosebumps I asked god to guide me to help pick what doula i should choose and there was Selina . Real story I’m not lying god helped me choose right . I didn’t grow up I can say with both parents in my life and even as an adult I don’t have my parents due to there own choices they made it there life . Selina was like my little mama angel that came by and guided me through the end of my pregnancy when things were getting really tough, through labor and delivery . I couldn’t ask for anyone better and I’m so grateful she was my doula . She answered my every question, listened to my cries and was supportive the whole way along . If you are having trouble choosing a doula this is your sign to search no further . Selina helped make my birth experience euphorical and even helped capture so many moments of my baby girls first arrival .she has been one of most supportive person I’ve had in my life during those stages and I couldn’t have asked for for anyone better .much love -Briana
