I am becoming a postpartum doula because I want to nurture and support families during such a tender and life-changing time. I believe parents deserve just as much care as their newborns, and my goal is to provide comfort, reassurance, and a helping hand as they heal and adjust. I especially want to be there for first-time parents and families without strong support systems, offering not only guidance but also a calm presence they can lean on. In the next five years, I see myself fully certified and running my own practice, creating a safe and welcoming space for families to feel cared for and understood. Beyond birth work, I enjoy cooking and reading, both of which inspire me to bring warmth, creativity, and patience into my life and the way I support others. Becoming a doula feels like a natural extension of who I am someone who values community, healing, and the simple comforts that help people feel at home.

Hi there! My name is Lindsey! I'm a Birth Doula, mom of a beautiful 13 month old baby boy, married to my best friend and was born and raised in the Bay Area! I have always had an immense level of respect and awe for birth, but it was really through my own pregnancy and natural, unmedicated and intervention free birth that a passion was ignited for serving women through this life-changing event. So many women lack the support they need to feel confident in the power they hold when they bring their babies into this world. My hope is that I can provide that support to you and help you achieve a positive birth experience. My goal for my clients is that you go into your birth feeling confident, empowered, educated, and in charge. I care that you've had a chance to access all of the information, have had time to ask questions, have had time to come to an answer and can give TRULY informed consent to any procedure. I also just really want to have a good time with you during one of the most incredible seasons of life. I'm so happy to meet you!

I have been a newborn specialist/postpartum double for 20 years, and I've cared for twins from anywhere in the peninsula, from Sunnyvale to San Francisco. I cared for a couple of babies in Oakland, but I preferred to stay on this side of the bay. I usually go into the homes when mom come from from the hospital that night around 10 pm and take over the caring for the newborn until 6 am (of course this is in general but the times it's up to the family). I usually feed baby every 2.5 - 3 hours, change diapers, burped and soothe baby back to sleep. I could do the baby's laundry if the family needs me to, and wash, sterilized the the bottles or washed. I tidy up in the nursery if we used the nursery before I go home in the morning. I do help the mom by bringing the pump and set by the door to her room so she can pump at night. Please let me know if you have other questions. Thank you, Uheina
