Autonomy-Centered Birth, Faith-based Birth & Postpartum Doula for Sovereign, Physiological Birth | Serving LA & OC | Kaiser-Friendly Hi, I’m Teejay Casado — your local doula for LA and Orange Counties. I am happy to also assist doulas beyond this area virtually and will travel if necessary. I started founder of Temple & Terrain Birthworks — a faith-rooted birth and postpartum support and wellness service. I specialize in supporting women who desire physiological, low-intervention birth while preserving autonomy and informed consent in hospital or home settings. My clients are often: • Planning natural or low-intervention hospital births • Desiring delayed cord clamping, Golden Hour, or lotus birth • Seeking evidence-based advocacy within systems like Kaiser • Wanting sovereignty in their birth decisions (e.g. labor to start naturally, push when ready, informed consent for vaccinations) • Craving calm, grounded leadership during labor With a background in anthropology, I honor birth as both an ancient physiological process and a sacred rite of passage. I help mothers prepare not just physically — but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually — so they enter birth informed, steady, and confident. Whether birthing at Kaiser or elsewhere, I guide families in: • Protecting the Golden Hour • Navigating hospital dynamics with clarity • Minimizing unnecessary interventions • Preserving mother-baby bonding • Creating a peaceful postpartum integration My postpartum support is deeply restorative, focused on nervous system regulation, gentle bodywork, whole-food nourishment, and helping mothers feel seen — not just cared for. If you are seeking sovereign birth, calm leadership, and faith-rooted support without pressure — I would love to connect.

I’m Christine Goddard, a DONA-trained postpartum doula and child development specialist. My commitment is to support you and your family during your postpartum journey. With compassion and without judgement, I lean on evidence-based practices and techniques to guide and empower clients. While the new mother is the primary focus of care, it is essential to support all family members with empathy. Our goal throughout is to make your family self-reliant. As a mother of two grown children, I understand the crucial importance of support for parents and their children at every stage of development. For over 12 years, I have worked as a CASA (Court Appointment Special Advocate) for foster children. At times providing postpartum support and guidance. I’ve also worked for non-profit organizations to enhance child development and improve education for children in need. Historically, women have been able to utilize their “village”, (elders and those with experience), as mentors and guides for life changing moments like childbirth.Let me be that village for you!
