I've been a birth doula for 35 years (I started young!) and I am also a childbirth educator. I got into doula work to advocate so that you can have the best birth possible. I am certified in Spiningbabies, the Rebozo Technique and in Acupuncture. I have always said.....this is your baby, your body and your birth and I'm there to support you in however and wherever you want to birth. I want to make sure that your spouse/partner also feels supported and cared for also. I live in Oceanside and serve San Diego County.

My experience with Kym completely exceeded my expectations. It was my first birth, so I was not entirely sure what to expect from a doula, and every interaction with Kym affirmed my decision to work with her. I felt supported by her throughout my journey. There's no way I would've gone as far as I did naturally if Kym had not been present. She was also an incredible support to my partner during the birth experience, and she kept encouraging him to take care of himself as well. One of my favorite aspects of my experience with Kym was the check-ins she provided postpartum. Every day I received a text from Kym asking how I was doing and telling me I was amazing. I felt I could share exactly how I was feeling with her and any worries I had; she met them without any judgment just care and concern. The birth process is incredibly hard, and postpartum in many ways is harder, so I was deeply grateful to have Kym's continued support. I would highly recommend Kym to anyone who is seeking a supportive, knowledgeable cheerleader in their birth journey.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Tiffany for postpartum doula support, and we truly couldn’t be more grateful for her care and expertise. As first-time parents, we were navigating unfamiliar territory and looking for someone who could guide us through the early days with our newborn son. Tiffany exceeded every expectation. She supported us in so many important ways—from troubleshooting feeding and gas issues to helping establish healthy sleep habits (as much as possible with a newborn!). Her guidance gave us the confidence we needed as new parents, and her calm, reassuring presence was invaluable. Tiffany cared for our son twice a week for several hours at a time, giving both mom and dad a chance to rest and recharge. Beyond caring for our baby, she was also a tremendous support to me as a first-time mom. Her thoughtful check-ins before and after the birth made me feel genuinely cared for, and she consistently encouraged me to prioritize rest and recovery during those crucial early weeks. Tiffany is both professional and deeply compassionate. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for postpartum support—you’ll be in the best hands.

Hi, I'm Rochelle! ** I am live scan fingerprinted & background checked with clearance as the DOJ Custodian of Records for my job outside of being a birth doula. Those records are available upon request. *** I'm a mom to three amazing kids, ages 20, 13, and 8, which means I'm living in ALL the seasons of motherhood at once! From college to junior high and elementary school, life is full, fun, and always keeping me on my toes. My love for birth started when I was just 12 years old and witnessed my first baby being born. That experience stayed with me and sparked a passion I've carried ever since. After years of supporting women through birth, I became a trained birth doula three years ago, and I'm now working toward becoming a childbirth educator and lactation consultant. My doula style is laid-back, encouraging, and rooted in education, open communication, and a little humor! I've supported all types of births, and one thing I believe strongly is that your birth isn't about me, my preferences, or my convictions. It's about YOU. I'm 100% committed to respecting your values, choices, and wishes, whatever those look like. My role is to help you feel informed, prepared, and confident while creating the safe, compassionate, and supportive birth environment you envision.

My husband and I have nothing but incredible things to say about Rochelle with Crowning Achievement! Having her as our doula meant we were educated on all things birth throughout pregnancy, she'd be with us to support our "birth plan," and she'd be equipped to help guide us through any unforeseen changes throughout labor & delivery. With our dream unmedicated birth now behind us, her knowledge and experience really is priceless and I can't imagine ever going through labor and delivery again without her! She supported me physically through various coping methods, mentally/emotionally by being a strong and safe figure, and she even helped guide my husband who received a lot of coaching for how to support me best. My husband says it wouldn't have been the same experience and we wouldn't have been able to go unmedicated like we did without her - I second that! She spent so much time learning about me and my preferences to know exactly what I needed in the moment and did the best job at keeping communication open throughout labor. She was also the best bridge between us and the hospital staff and they also raved about her which was really awesome to hear! If you're wanting to learn more about doula support during birth, do not hesitate to reach out to Rochelle for even just an introductory call! She's truly the WHOLE package and we get to look back on how empowered, calm, and dare I even say "light-hearted" our birth was largely because of Rochelle. Like I said, nothing but incredible things to say. 10/10!!

Words cannot not express how thankful I am for Mrs Nicole's help after I had my son! She came to my house 4 times weekly and covered the night shift for me and my husband up until our son was 15 months old. the relief we had with knowing that our first child was being cared for AND we got to get rest to go to work and take care of our son during the day was and is truly priceless! Mrs Nicole helped with diaper changes, feedings and even ran a few loads of the babies clothes while we were sleeping. When our son turned 14 months, he was sleeping through the night so no longer needed her but truly are still grateful we reached out and got the help we needed and wanted. She was open to what we wanted as parents and even offered suggestions that helped us transition into a new world of parenthood. Thank you Mrs Nicole!

Hiring Abigail Smith as our postpartum night doula was, without question, the best decision we made as new parents. From the very first night she walked into our home, she brought with her a sense of calm, warmth, and deep compassion that changed our entire experience of early parenthood. She didn’t just care for our baby — she loved our baby. And she didn’t just support me — she held me, emotionally and spiritually, through some of the most tender, vulnerable nights of my life. In every moment, she was present. Gentle. Wise. Unshakably grounded. Each night, Abigail created a peaceful, nurturing environment for our little one to thrive and for me to heal. She knew exactly what we needed before we did — whether it was expert swaddling, lactation guidance, a warm cup of tea, a reassuring word, or simply space to sleep without worry. Her intuition is unmatched, and her professionalism is seamless. But more than all of that, Abby loved us. That love showed up in every tiny detail — in the way she soothed our baby back to sleep, in how she respected our rhythms and choices, and in how she always, always made me feel seen, safe, and never alone. She became part of our family. Letting her go at the end of our time together was genuinely one of the hardest goodbyes we’ve ever said — that’s how much of an impact she had on our lives. If you're lucky enough to welcome Abby into your postpartum journey, know this: you are in the presence of someone truly extraordinary. She is not just a doula. She is a healer, a nurturer, and a quiet, powerful presence who will carry you through the night with love.

Nicole was the greatest support! I connected with her last minute and only met her twice before my birth but she made me feel so comfortable and helped get me to labor down. She’s very hands on and I will definitely reach out for the rest of my births😊

— Stephanie A., review of Nicole Jones

October 2026

Nicole was such a wonderful help during the night feedings and with light kitchen and laundry tasks. Her support allowed me to get the rest I needed, which made such a difference. She was kind, caring, and reassuring, and she made me feel truly supported during a time when I needed it most. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend Nicole to any mom looking for dependable, compassionate support.
