Hi, I’m Agustina — a mother, nurse, and doula with a deep love for walking alongside families in their birthing journeys. I come from another country and now feel grateful to serve my new community, offering support in both English and Spanish so more families can feel seen and cared for. My own path began with the birth of my daughter, an experience that opened my heart and inspired me to dedicate my life to this work. Birth showed me the strength, vulnerability, and beauty of bringing life into the world — and I knew I wanted to hold space for others in that sacred moment. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll often find me at the farmers market with my daughter, listening to holistic health podcasts, or walking along the beach. These simple joys keep me grounded and connected, just as I strive to help the families I serve feel rooted and cared for. With years of nursing experience and as a student midwife, I bring both knowledge and a gentle presence. My care is rooted in listening, nurturing, and honoring the whole person — body, mind, and spirit. As your doula, my promise is to center you. I’ll walk beside you with compassion, respect, and love, so you feel supported, empowered, and held every step of the way.

Brittany was our postpartum doula! we cannot thank her enough for the support she gave during the beginning stages with our baby. She genuinely cared for our family and is so trustworthy and reliable. I was struggling with breastfeeding and she helped get my baby to latch properly as well as had amazing tips to increase my supply! Thank you so much for everything you did for our family!
