About me

Hi everyone! I’m Laura Cechinato, a CAPPA Certified Newborn Care Specialist and Advanced Postpartum Doula based in Mill Valley, California. I’ve spent the past 10 years caring for babies and young children, and over the years I’ve developed a deep appreciation for those quiet, tender moments that make the early days with a new baby so special. I’m passionate about creating a calm, nurturing environment where parents can slow down, rest, and feel cared for while their baby receives attentive, loving care. I believe postpartum support should feel persona and that every family deserves care that is tailored to their unique needs and way of doing things. Infant sleep has also been a particular passion of mine for many years. I’ve spent a great deal of time studying infant sleep and different approaches to supporting healthy sleep, and I’m currently pursuing formal training in pediatric sleep consulting and lactation to continue expanding my expertise in these areas. I’m excited to continue growing in this field and to bring the experience, knowledge, and genuine care I’ve developed over the years to the families I work with.
