Hi, I’m Maya Jones a Certified Full Spectrum Doula and Placenta Care Specialist dedicated to supporting you through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My mission is to create safe, empowering experiences for all birthing people—honoring your unique birth preferences, whether natural, medicated, cesarean, or VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean). Growing up in East Palo Alto, I was inspired by the strength of my community and the compassion of my grandmother and mother, who were community leaders and nurturers. Their example taught me to lead with advocacy, care, and an unwavering commitment to uplifting others. With over a decade of childcare experience and a passion for birth work sparked in 2017, I founded All Hues LLC in 2023 to provide holistic, personalized care. My comprehensive training in Birth, Loss, and Postpartum Care, alongside certifications in Placenta Encapsulation and OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Safety, equips me to meet your needs with evidence-based knowledge, practical tools, and emotional reassurance. I am committed to addressing inequities in perinatal care and providing inclusive, affirming support to all families, especially Black families, families of color, LGBTQ+ families, single parents, and surrogates. Through compassionate guidance, I help you navigate the challenges and joys of parenthood with confidence and ease. Whether you’re looking for birth planning, hands-on labor support, lactation guidance, postpartum recovery care, or placenta encapsulation, my goal is to ensure you feel seen, respected, and cared for every step of the way. Let’s create a birth and postpartum experience that empowers you to not just survive but thrive!

Patient. Kind. Loving. Affirming. The Best Doula There Is. I was referred to Dawneshia by my hairstylist during my first pregnancy. While I was only 8 weeks pregnant, we began to talk about my baby as if they were here. She gave me tips for a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Unfortunately, at 10 weeks, I miscarried. Dawneisha provided support during this loss that I will never forget. She prayed with me and provided self-help tips. Subsequently, with her support, I've had two successful deliveries. She is more than a Doula but a family friend.

Carina is a second generation Filipinx and El Salvadoran queer and revolutionary full-spectrum doula. In an effort to embrace both of Carina's ancestral lineages, Carina is committing to the re-knowing/re-learning of advocacy for families on their journeys of pregnancy, labor, postpartum, miscarriages, loss, and abortion. Through this work, Carina devotes themself to re-membering the innate wisdom and powers of birthing people’s abilities to birth life into this earthly realm. In re-membering this ancient wisdom, Carina rejects harmful patriarchal systems and resists colonial structures of all forms. Carina provides additional support by bridging birthwork and astrology through careful observation of one’s cosmic makeup to identify any aspects and/or analyze current transits in the sky as it relates to someone's placements. She provides insights into the energies of a chart to instill a sense of calm, understanding, and presence through the sacred journey. In addition to Carina's duty to ensure their clients feel seen, held, and supported, she recognizes that every birthing person's experience is unique and as a result of this, ensures the care they receive is catered to their individual experiences. In and out of this work, Carina of Tandaan Mo (remember) La Tierra (the land) aims to uplift, support, honor, and advocate for all sacred portals.

Blessings to you. Thank you for jumping in profile. My name is Valerie Claxton, and I am an IBCLC, a certified childbirth educator, doula certified, and a registered nurse specializing in labor and delivery living northern California. I have been on both sides of the labor and delivery journey as a nurse, I see mothers choosing what is best for them and advocating for them, whether going fully natural to using medicinal means to deliver. I know that with teamwork, belief, trust, releasing all fears, and encompassing a peaceful space that birthing your beautiful bundle will come easy. Yes, there are the unknowns but with constant communication and reassurance our relationship will be unbreakable. I enjoy teaching Zumba, serving in our children's ministry, and showing off my green thumb.

I tell everybody I know to get a lactation consultant BEFORE they give birth as I truly believe breastfeeding would be a lot easier if women had more access to more help. I highly recommend Valerie specifically because I did work with another consultant beforehand and while she was lovely, she wasn't quite able to help us the way we needed. Valerie noticed tiny but important details of our lives and provided much needed insight and advice on how to get through the hard times.

Recent review

We’ve been so lucky to have Gabi as our newborn doula, providing both day and night support since our daughter was six weeks old. From the start, Gabi has been incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, and caring - not just with our daughter but with our whole family as we’ve adjusted to life with a new baby. She brings such confidence, warmth, and positive energy to every visit, and it’s clear how passionate she is about supporting families during this special (and overwhelming!) time. Gabi has also been a wonderful resource, connecting us with others in the doula community and helping us feel supported in so many ways. We’re truly grateful we found her and cannot recommend her highly enough. Any family would be lucky to work with her and have her in their baby’s life!

I’m certified Postpartum Night Doula since 2016 , working in San Francisco & Bay Area. My Husband , 3 kids & I just bought a house in Sacramento county 💖💪🏻 I just finished up sleep training a set of twins and would like to book my next growing family’s in the Sacramento & surrounding areas. I’m registered with Trustline, Carrot Insurance approved, up to date with liability insurance as well as Adult & Pediatric CPR /AED certification. I’ve got years of continuous hands on experience working with Singletons , multiple sets twins & one set of triplets . I’m hoping to continue my career & passion back home. Nurturing families through the 4th trimester, setting up a solid & smooth foundation. ✨The most rewarding part of my “job” is guiding new parents through the first stages of Motherhood, giving parents the confidence & assurance that they’ve got this!! It goes by so quickly! Especially after birth… the hormones, fear & doubt are SO real! People rarely talk about the postpartum experience.

Nichole was an absolute blessing for our family. She was so sweet and gentle with our daughter, making us feel completely at ease. Her knowledge and guidance were invaluable—we learned so much from her about newborn care and sleep routines. She was patient, kind, and incredibly supportive during such an important time for us. We can’t recommend her enough!

Recent review

I couldn't have done it without her! While I was pregnant, especially as my due date approached, Mama T checked in on me more than my family. We talked about my birth plan, options, sounds, snacks, scents, and what to expect. I had complete trust in her. Her calm demeanor had me entering into my labor with confidence. During labor, she stayed present with me and went through each contraction reminding me it was only a minute...I could do it! During the postpartum period, she was essential as well. I didn't have family close so see continued to check on me and the baby, coaching me through new parent jitters. I highly recommend Therese and really feel I couldn't have done it without her.

For as long as I can remember I've possessed a deep empathy and a desire to nurture others. After practicing massage therapy for seven years, I felt called to look for new and more impactful ways to serve and uplift using my skills and intuition. After having had two children of my own, the idea of working with families during their journey to parenthood felt like a natural direction to pursue. I received my certification in 2018 and I haven't looked back since! As a birth and postpartum doula I strive to offer intentional and evidence based support tailored to you, through active listening and acknowledgement of your personal truths and choices. I aim to become my highest self through service to others while embracing inclusivity and the beauty, complexity, and diversity within each individual and family.​ I support all families through the entire range of reproductive journeys.

Heather was the perfect person to Support us through our pregnancy journey and during the delivery of our daughter. Her gentle approach and deep knowledge made me feel confident that we’d work well together. She has great instincts as a doula, is kind, generous and flexible. It’s been two and a half years since we worked together and I still think about how fortunate I was to have the opportunity to work with Heather, especially when I’m around new moms who didn’t have this kind of support. She will remain a huge part of my healthy and joyful birthing experience. Thank you, Heather, for supporting me in ways I didn’t know I would need.

Hi, I’m Lianne—some like to call me Li. I’m a 34-year-old woman deeply committed to supporting parents and individuals through big life transitions, especially the beautiful, complex journey into parenthood. I understand how vulnerable and transformative this time can be. My goal is to walk alongside you with care and steady support—nurturing not just your baby, but you, and your whole family, as you adjust and grow. In addition to my work with families, I run an organic skincare company that connects me to the natural world through ingredients like shea butter, calendula, castor oil, etc. I bring that same care into your postpartum experience—whether it’s preparing nourishing meals, offering soothing massages and herbal baths, steeping teas, or blending hydrating tonics. Everything I do is designed to support your body, mind, and nervous system. I’m certified in infant CPR and life coaching, and I'm very open to learning if there is something you wish for me to delve into during our journey together! I bring compassion, experience, and a calm presence to every family I work with. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

Recent review

Lianne has been helping me since my youngest was a few months old and I went back to work. She has been a godsend for us, essentially “being me” while I was home so I could focus on the baby, nursing, and soaking up that precious time. She prepared insanely delicious meals that were nurturing (even my 5 year old enjoyed them!) kept things tidy and helped me make all of my apts on time and without stress. Now that my baby is a little older she still offers to lend a helping hand and has forged a beautiful relationship with both my children. She really fit into the family seamlessly. She knows what needs to be done, helps intuitively without being asked, and is always thinking of how to support and nurture those in her care. She’s one in a million and I can’t speak more highly of her
