About me

My name is Megan Mendoza, I’m a birth doula and am passionate about educating birthing people and helping them learn about their options when it comes to childbirth and postpartum. I have an incredible husband, David. Together we have two amazing and very energetic little boys Grover and August, and a sweet heart of a dog Lola. As a family we love to hike and travel as much as we can. While I was pregnant with our second (August) we traveled full time in a school bus converted into a tiny house. This is when I really found my voice to advocate for myself. Everyone thought (and told us several times!) that we were crazy for having a young toddler and expanding our family while we didn’t have a "typical" house. But I knew that it was possible and that I was going to have the birth I had dreamed about. A few months later I was able to have an empowered V-BAC birth. Through this experience I discovered my love for helping women find their own voices and to help advocate for themselves to have the empowered births they desire, whatever that may be.

Service introduction

When you choose me to be your Doula, we will have two prenatal visits during which we will go over multiple comfort strategies for a labor, and build a birth plan together, we will also talk about any fears you may have and if you would like to specialize your care with me. I will be there for your entire labor and birth, and I will stay for two hours afterwards depending on the hospital/birth center policy. We will also do one postpartum visit together.
