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.

I’m Leticia Butruce, a Brazilian-born, U.S.-based certified postpartum doula with a lifelong passion for caring for babies and supporting families. With an extensive background in childcare and family assistance, along with training through DONA International, I offer compassionate, hands-on support during one of life’s biggest transitions—welcoming a new baby. Whether you need daytime help with your routine, overnight newborn care, or support during postpartum recovery, I’m here to bring calm, care, and confidence to your growing family.

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.

We had a wonderful experience working with Camila as our postpartum doula. She is incredibly sweet, sincere, flexible, and supportive. As my due date got closer, she proactively checked in on me and offered help, which made me feel truly cared for. When I was admitted to the hospital, she was consistently available and ready to support us which gives me so much peace of mind. Camila worked beautifully with our entire family, including my mom and my husband. She genuinely cared about our baby, and we always felt very comfortable with her. She brought a warm, calming presence into our home and quickly became someone we trusted.What I appreciated most is that Camila offers guidance from her experience while still respecting each family’s preferences and way of doing things. She gave us helpful advice on sleep routines, bedtime and wake-up routines, swaddling, bathing, breastfeeding, and pumping. When I considered pumping to get more overnight rest, she offered practical guidance. Later, when I had blockages and wanted to return to exclusive breastfeeding, she was 100% supportive and helped me work toward that goal.Camila is also very reliable and punctual. Despite she lives far from us, we never had any issues with timing. She was always flexible, dependable, and easy to communicate with.Beyond her knowledge and professionalism, Camila is simply lovely to be around. She is like a friend to the whole family (she got us the best egg tarts when she heard that I like egg tarts) than just someone helping us postpartum. We truly enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend Camila to any family who has the opportunity to work with her.

I’ve got doula skills and am a birth expert, but what do I really do? I believe birth is a convergence of physiology, energy, spirit, psyche—and the deep wisdom of the birthing person and baby. Around October 2026, I should be able to start accepting insurance. My job? To honor and hold space for it and support it with everything I’ve got. I’m also a four-time postpartum survivor, and that experience lit a fire in me to make postpartum care stronger, smarter, and more supported for every family. My approach is real, grounded, and heart-led. I believe birth is powerful, people are wise, and support should always come with a dose of humor and a whole lot of heart. If you’re ready to dive into this work and be part of something bigger, I’d be honored to be part of your journey. I am a mother to four children ages 9 to 25 and a grandmother. I have 25 years' experience as a in healthcare providing caregiving, teaching for children in homeschool co-ops and my church. I've been a volunteer doula since 2015. And, in 2023 I started working full-time as a doula specializing in birthing, postpartum, newborn care and lactation. July of 2026, I updated all of my training certifications. I have taking 9 units, in Child Development. I provide Birthing Doula support and after the baby is born, I provide postpartum doula support. I also include lactation support if request. I would love to partner with you. My goal as a doula is to support mom and baby and make birth memorable.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Hailey. She was an incredible doula—supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely thoughtful every step of the way. Hailey took the time to walk us through every possible scenario and made sure we felt prepared and confident. In the hospital, she worked seamlessly alongside our care team and advocated for us with such calm, steady presence. We truly couldn’t have done it without her. We are so grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled doula.

As a postpartum doula, I am dedicated to supporting families through the critical transition that follows birth. I view the postpartum period as a time that deserves intentional care, where both parent and child benefit from consistent guidance, reassurance, and practical assistance. My role is to provide evidence based support in areas such as infant feeding, soothing strategies, rest, and family adjustment, while also ensuring that parents feel heard, respected, and empowered in their choices. With a background in early childhood education, I bring a solid understanding of child development alongside a deep commitment to family well-being. My philosophy is rooted in holistic care; recognizing the physical, emotional, and relational needs of each family member. I believe that when parents are supported with compassion and knowledge, they are better able to thrive, bond with their baby, and step into their role with confidence. It is an honor to walk alongside families during this meaningful and transformative season.
