Find Postpartum Doula Jobs Near Oakland, CA

I am looking for doula support during birth and potentially postpartum. My husband and I felt very prepared, we read the bradley method and had been practicing quite a bit for a natural birth. I didn’t think there was a need for a doula because we seemed to be a great team. At our last ultrasound we got news that baby is measuring small and are pushing for induction. Now I feel silly for not hiring a doula sooner. It feels like such a huge gap in communication between us and the doctors even though we have done everything to educate ourselves. I am hoping to find someone that can help fill that gap, help us to feel like we are making informed choices and to support me during labor so I don’t have to rely fully on my husband in case of any complications.

I’m a working mom of 2 joyful and strong willed kids. My youngest is 16 months old and hasn’t slept through the night since about 6 months of age. I’m running on fumes. He falls asleep independently for bedtime ~7:30pm each night. He wakes about 2x (12am/3am) before final wake up around 5am when I bring him into my bed and nurse him back down so we can sleep until about 7am. He’s got 16 teeth out so I attribute some of the night struggles to that but i know there are other factors. Can you help?
