About me

I am a certified birth doula with over four years of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. I hold official certification as a Birth and Postpartum Doula. I am approved to accept Medi-Cal insurance. You may also want to check with your insurance provider about possible reimbursement for doula services. Beyond my doula expertise, I am certified in First Aid, CPR (infant, child, and adult), HIPAA compliance, and other essential health and safety practices.-so you can feel confident you’re in caring, capable hands. As a doula, I am deeply passionate about guiding families as they welcome their babies in a healthy, safe, and peaceful environment. My goal is to help your family experience a positive and empowering birth. Above all, I want you to feel educated, secure, and confident throughout your journey. I view birth as a natural, physiological process, and with the right support and information, it can be a truly transformative and uplifting experience. For general questions, please visit our website or send me a text! I’d love to connect to see how I can best support your growing family. image.png
