Find a Doula Near Me in Long Beach, CA

My name is Zoë, I am a birth and postpartum doula specializing in BIPOC and PCOS communities, servicing LA/Orange County. With @foreveryoursdoula services, my mission is to provide knowledge, resources, comfort, and a safe space for women to enjoy this life changing journey, in bliss, ease, and love, and to challenge any and all racial disparities in the healthcare system disrupting that. My goal is to also make sure that every mother has the support needed leading up to and during the postpartum period, to allow them to peacefully transition into motherhood and let their self care and bond with their baby be the main focus. Can’t wait to connect 🥰💞

As a Doula and birth worker, I'm committed to supporting you physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I've given birth to two beautiful babies (who are now grown/and almost grown) and I could not have done it without my doula. I have a Bachelors of Science in Human Environmental Sciences – which equates to commercial interior design - but childbirth is my passion. I have been teaching childbirth classes in The Bradley Method ® in Long Beach, California since 2011. In 2012, I became a certified Doula and have since had the honor of witnessing over 350 births. It is my goal to empower women and their partners, through positive education, to give birth in the most natural way possible. The benefits of a natural birth are countless and the value to the birthing parent, baby, and the family unit, are immeasurable. Bradley Method ® classes provide a safe place for parents to explore their options, and weigh the benefits and risks of interventions with which they may be presented, prior to arriving at the labor and delivery room. A doula added to that formula elevates the experience, improving outcomes and birth satisfaction. Education and Experience: • Certified Doula since 2012 (The VBACLink cert in 2019) • Affiliated Bradley Method® Instructor since 2011 • Evidence Based Birth® Instructor since 2018 • B.S. in Human Environmental Sciences, 1996 I'd love to help you advocate for whatever kind of birth YOU want.

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.

Hey, my name is Stephanie Jackson and I am a full-spectrum doula I have a background in public health and five years of experience supporting births. My journey into this work was profoundly influenced by a tragic experience of a close friend during childbirth, which inspired me to formally pursue this path. I use an evidence-based approach while also being dedicated to making sure all my clients feel safe, heard, and supported throughout their pregnancy. I'll be by your side, helping you feel confident, prepared, and supported every step of the way.

I am a DONA certified and Medi-Cal approved birth doula and mother of two. I believe birth is a natural physiological process, and a sacred passage: for mother, parents, baby, and family. I understand pregnancy and childbirth to be a deeply transformative time. As a Christian, I celebrate every baby born into the world as a unique and precious gift from God. My passion to become a birth doula grew from witnessing my nephew's birth and then having two boys of my own. Like many women, I was fearful of childbirth due to my limited understanding. Birth was rarely talked about by the women in my life and if it was, pain was typically the main subject. Watching my nephew’s birth showed me that birth can be beautiful. I believe that as women, our bodies were designed by God to birth well. While complications do happen, they are not the rule. Birth is a natural physiological process. It is hard work and can be uncomfortable or painful, but that is not all. Birth is a transformative, life changing experience no matter how it happens: unmedicated or medicated, vaginal or cesarean, home birth, birth center, or hospital.

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.

I am a certified birth and postpartum doula and have been a doula for over a decade in the Los Angeles area. I accept Medicaid/Medi-Cal and am carrot approved and in their directory of doulas. I am passionate about bringing intuitive and compassionate doula care to every person and family that feels they would benefit from the support of a doula before during or after pregnancy and labor. I believe in the power of setting intentions for the birthing journey and choosing your support is an important and empowering step. Warmest regards, Mara

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.

As a birth and postpartum doula, I take responsibility to empower, educate, and provide a safe space for both the birthing person and their family. Utilizing reproductive justice and up to date guidelines/evidence-based information as my compass, I aim to serve the birthing person as they transcend through this transformative and rewarding chapter of their lives. My birth and postpartum experience, training, and heart for advocacy are what drives my work to ensure that you feel physically and emotionally supported, educated on all your options, and confident in your autonomy. I believe it takes a village to raise a child and that every family is unique. That is why I make it a priority to actively listen to you and your family’s needs, encourage you to trust yourself and your body, and create a tailored care plan that works for you and your family.

Hi families. I have not worked as an overnight nanny, but I would love to experience that. I have worked in daycare and childcare environments for 6 years now. I also had one nanny family. I understand how during the first few days everything is new and coming in with different changes but I can assure you that I will help out with the best of my abilities to provide you with peaceful nights knowing your little one is in great hands. It is easy for me to commit to schedules and stick to them to provide the best nurturing and structured routine that you want and need. I also recently updated my Infant/Child/Adult First Aid/CPR certification and BLS (7/11/26) and I can provide a copy for you if you would like.

Hi everyone, Natalie here! I am a pre and postnatal birth doula tending to the LA and OC areas. I am currently a stay at home mom who loves all things birth related. I have had the honor of birthing both my babies at home in the birthing pool. No words could describe the magical experiences I encountered. These natural births kick started my passion for birth work. I am eager to work with families that trust the design of the female body. Our beautiful design, which encourages birth, simply amazes me. We truly are a work of art! Not only are we beautiful, but we are powerful. I believe we need to be surrounded by people who remind us of our worth and our strength. I would love to help encourage you and remind you that you can do this! I believe in you wholeheartedly. Allow me to assist you in achieving the birth of your dreams.

My path to becoming a doula was forged during a deeply personal experience, as I navigated the challenges of healing my own womb from an ovarian cyst. Faced with the possibility of losing an ovary and the potential inability to have more children, I turned to holistic remedies and the power of herbs. Through this transformative journey, I not only healed myself but also discovered a profound calling to share the knowledge I gained with other women of color who often face similar struggles with womb health. Driven by this newfound purpose, I embarked on a mission to become a holistic fertility doula. As I delved into the realm of fertility, I uncovered not only the prevalence of womb health issues among women of color but also the systemic disparities and injustices they face in their pregnancy and delivery experiences. This revelation ignited a fire within me to advocate for fair treatment and support for all mothers-to-be.

My name is Tina Louise and I love supporting families around their birth experience. I'm passionate about birth and working to improve birth outcomes in Los Angeles and surrounding areas. I attended my first birth at the age of 16 years in a homebirth community and knew this was a calling for me. I attended home births, birth centers and hospital births, and finally decided to become certified as a Doula in 2014. I have volunteered with Joy in Birthing Foundation, worked as a private doula under Doula Sisters LA and began with SBCC a as a Community-based Doula in 2018. I am experienced in all forms of doula support, Lactation, Childbirth Education, Spinning Babies, Placenta Encapsulation, Infant Massage and a Reiki II practitioner. I am currently only taking at risk clients for doula support through SBCC and providing birth placenta encapsulation, Spinning Babies classes and Reiki II sessions to Southwest Los Angeles, Long Beach and surrounding cities.

Hello Parents, I decided to begin my service as a Postpartum Doula because I have a passion for the wellness of women and children. I worked before as a Youth Liasion advocating for young people who battled homelessness. In my service, I met with several clients with little ones and they lacked the necessary resources to care for their children. I noticed the emotional strain that was placed on the mothers so I would help out where I could. I love spending time with children so I made the decision to become educated. My philosophy is this: you are not alone and it is perfectly fine to not know. You have support and you deserve it. My role is to help educate your family on how to care for your newborn and also provide emotional support so you can enjoy the process. Please feel free to reach out and contact me!
