I’m Jaqueline, Full Spectrum Doula, Newborn Care Specialist and Sleep Consultant in the East Bay Area! I’m passionate about every parent receiving the support that they need. I believe that all parts of your journey matter equally, and that’s why I’m so excited to offer birth, postpartum, newborn care and sleep consulting! My journey began with a move from Brazil to the US, where I initially served families as a nanny. Feeling called to provide deeper support, I became a newborn care specialist and dual-certified sleep consultant. After having my own babies, my passion for holistic care grew, and I was inspired to get my birth and postpartum doula certifications. Now, I'm excited to combine my passion and years of expertise to serve families like yours holistically throughout the East Bay Area and San Francisco, guiding you from pregnancy through your child's early years.

I am so grateful for my Newborn Care Specialist Jacqueline and the exceptional support she provided when my daughter was born. Her vast knowledge of newborn care is truly impressive, and her advice was invaluable. She is also an incredible communicator, always keeping me informed and reassured. Her attention to detail and genuine compassion were gamechangers and I felt incredibly supported every step of the way. She went above and beyond to ensure my daughter had everything she needed to thrive and that I had everything I needed to care for her. Jacqueline made this special time even more special for my family. I cannot recommend Jacqueline enough to any new parent(s) looking for outstanding care and support.

Hello! I'm Naoko. I am a licensed midwife from Japan, a birth and postpartum doula, and a mother of four. Before moving to the United States, I attended more than 1,500 births as a midwife in Japan. Over the past 10+ years in the San Francisco Bay Area, I have supported more than 500 births as a doula. I believe every family deserves compassionate, evidence-based, and personalized support, whether they are planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, VBAC, or cesarean birth. As both a midwife and a doula, I combine medical knowledge with continuous emotional and physical support. I also offer childbirth education, breastfeeding guidance, prenatal yoga classes for my clients, and bilingual support in English and Japanese. My goal is to help every family feel informed, confident, and empowered while creating a positive birth experience that they will remember for the rest of their lives.

Having Naoko by our side during the birth was the very first gift our baby received. Now, two years later, I've come to realize even more just how much her presence and support meant to us. She quickly recognized that my labor was progressing much faster than expected. With her calm guidance and timely advice, we were able to communicate seamlessly with the hospital staff and make the right decisions at every step. She also thoughtfully connected a video call so that my daughter and my husband, who couldn't be in the delivery room, could still share the moment my son entered the world. Thanks to Naoko, the moment arrived in a calm, joyful atmosphere, and everyone in the room cheered, "The party's starting!" It remains one of my most treasured memories, and every time I think about it, I'm filled with happiness and gratitude. I wholeheartedly recommend Naoko to anyone looking for a birth doula. She brings not only exceptional knowledge and professionalism, but also genuine warmth, compassion, and a reassuring presence. She gave our family a gift that will stay with us for years to come.

As first-time parents, we were nervous and unsure about many aspects of caring for a newborn, but Queenie’s guidance and steady, reassuring presence made everything feel manageable from the very beginning. She provided hands-on support with newborn care, including soothing the baby, helping us understand feeding cues, and offering practical advice on daily routines and sleep. During nighttime care, Queenie was calm, attentive, and highly responsive, which allowed us to get much-needed rest while knowing our baby was in capable hands. She always took the time to explain what she was doing and why, helping us build confidence as new parents. Queenie was also very supportive during the postpartum recovery period. Her thoughtful care, emotional reassurance, and calm demeanor helped create a peaceful environment and greatly eased our anxiety. With her support, we were able to rest, recover, and feel more confident each day. We are deeply grateful for Queenie’s dedication, professionalism, and genuine compassion, and we truly feel fortunate to have had her as our doula.

I am a certified postpartum doula with +6y of hands-on experience supporting families and caring for newborns and children. My approach is grounded in respect, emotional safety, and evidence-based care. I believe the postpartum period is a sacred transition—one that deserves patience, gentleness, and knowledgeable support. My role is to help families feel confident, informed, and truly supported as they recover, bond, and find their own rhythm at home. My philosophy centers on meeting each family where they are. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all parenting; instead, I honor each family’s values, culture, and instincts while offering practical guidance and calm reassurance. I focus on nurturing both the baby and the parents—supporting feeding, sleep, recovery, and emotional wellbeing—so families can feel empowered rather than overwhelmed. My goal is always to create a peaceful, judgment-free environment where parents feel seen, heard, and capable during one of the most important chapters of their lives.

Recent review

Nathalia is the best! She has a sweet and gentle demeanor which puts babies and parents at ease. She is incredibly thoughtful and insightful, and made several recommendations to help us sleep longer (our main priority), which really helped. She also immediately identified a deeper issue I’d been having related to milk supply and raised it incredibly tactfully and helped me move past it. If you’re looking for someone who will truly take care of you and your family, look no further!

Becoming first-time parents after 40 came with its share of excitement and anxieties, and having Thaiz by our side made all the difference. As both a newborn care specialist and postpartum doula, she brought such calm, warmth, and expertise into our home—caring for our baby with incredible gentleness while also supporting us as new parents. She answered our endless questions, helped us build confidence, and always knew whether we needed guidance, reassurance, or simply rest. Beyond her skills, what stood out most was her kindness and nurturing spirit; she felt like part of the family. We’re so grateful for her care and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any new parents.

Recent review

We are incredibly grateful for Leticia and cannot recommend her enough as a night doula. She was with us from the day we brought our baby home and supported our family through the first six weeks postpartum while we recovered and adjusted to life with a newborn. Her guidance, knowledge, and reassurance made a huge difference during a challenging time. She taught us countless tips and tricks for newborn care, helped us navigate reflux issues, and provided practical solutions during difficult nights. Her calm presence, experience, and genuine care gave us confidence as first-time parents and allowed us to get much-needed rest while recovering. Leticia went above and beyond to support both our baby and our family. We truly could not have asked for a better partner during those early weeks and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and reliable postpartum support.

I'm a queer, Black birth worker offering sliding scale doula care in the East Bay. I was born and raised in Oakland and I only take on a handful of clients at a time so that I can give you as much individualized attention as possible. I trained as a full-spectrum doula in 2021 with Sumi's Touch and have been actively supporting clients in the transformative process of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum for over a year. Before that, I worked as an infant-toddler teacher for years and I incorporate education on newborn care in my work as a doula. I believe that education and information is critical to you being able to make choices that work best for you and go into birth with confidence and grounding in your abilities and understanding of your own body and baby. The goal of every birth is to create an environment and process that is uniquely comfortable and grounding for the person giving birth and so I provide a number of prenatal sessions to prepare parents with the knowledge and tools to make their own informed decisions while also being ready to step in and advocate on behalf of the parents' needs at any point. I am particularly interested in mindful birthing and finding the methods of pain reduction that work for each person, building a birth environment that feels as familiar and homey as possible (music, lighting, calming scents, etc), and being anything and everything you may need from home to the hospital, whether that be a coach, cook, massage therapist, fierce advocate, or photographer. I also have an affinity for postpartum care that encompasses lactation support, postpartum healing, herbal remedies, baby care, or just doing your dishes so you don’t have to worry about that too.

I was in labor for three days, and I can’t imagine how I would’ve managed without Leila. She is the support every person deserves during this process. She listened to my needs and helped me create a birth plan that reflected my personality. At the hospital, she advocated for me fiercely, pushing for alternatives that aligned with my wishes, even when the medical team repeatedly fear-mongered. Postpartum, she offered invaluable advice that helped me process my labor experience and navigate lactation. I am incredibly grateful that I had her by my side.

My work is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves choice, access, safety, and power in their reproductive journeys. I’m especially honored to support individuals and communities whose lineages have had to fight for this freedom — whether that meant the right to give birth and raise children, or the right not to. It is a sacred calling to support people through the transformative journeys of pregnancy, labor, postpartum, and parenting, and I hold this responsibility with deep gratitude.

It was a privilege to have Sampaguita be our doula and I couldn't have imagined a better birthing experience than the one I've went through with her by our side. Sampaguita provided a safe safe for us to explore our vulnerabilities and fears and helped guide us through it so that we'll feel more confident stepping into our role as parents. From beginning to end, she created an environment of warmth and support that shaped my birth into a positive experience. We couldn't have asked for a better support system and it was a honor to share this part of our chapter with her. I highly recommend having Sampaguita as part of anyone's pregnancy and birth experience as we will definitely have her be a part of ours for our next pregnancy!
