My name is Christine Score, and I am a Licensed Midwife providing homebirth, water birth, VBAC. My team and I can't wait to meet you and your family. We hope to be a part of your birth adventure and share life-long memories with you.

Hi, I’m Tanya — a home birth midwife based in Winchester, California, serving families throughout Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego Counties. I’m a mother of two and have been married for 25 years, and I bring that same steady, grounded care into the way I support growing families. I believe birth works best when you feel safe, seen, and truly listened to. My role is to help you create the home birth you’ve been imagining, while keeping safety at the center of everything we do. This is your body, your baby, and your story. I walk beside you with calm guidance, clear information, and experienced hands—so you feel confident and never alone in your choices. Together we’ll create a plan that honors your values, your culture, and what feels right in your home. My care is evidence-based and community-rooted. I keep a close eye on your health and your baby’s wellbeing, and I make sure you understand your options every step of the way. My hope is that you feel informed, respected, and deeply supported throughout pregnancy, birth, and those first tender days postpartum.

I entered the world of birth work in 2016, and have been focused on expanding my skill set to better support families ever since. I became licensed in California in 2023, and plan to continue pursuing a deeper knowledge of birth as I serve my community. I gave birth to my son in June of 2023, and am deeply thankful for the gift of motherhood and the ability to care for my child. After supporting so many families in bringing their little ones into the world, I am still in awe of the transformative power of birth. I hope that through my care, I can support and encourage more families to expand their hearts and perspectives as they welcome new souls into their lives. In addition to standard reproductive care, I am also passionate about offering whole-person care, which refers to healing a person’s body, mind, and spirit as a whole unit. I believe that through this perspective, I am able to offer a truly individualized experience which supports a person’s healing and growth on a deeper level. I also hold a deep trust and admiration for my own intuition, which I find is my greatest tool in finding better ways to show up for my clients. By listening to my own inner voice as a healer AND teaching my clients to do the same, I hope to provide a deeper and more complete level of care.

“I’m an IBCLC and Certified Nurse Midwife with an independent practice providing both full-scope midwifery care and comprehensive lactation services across hospital and community settings. My lactation work spans the full clinical spectrum—from establishing breastfeeding in the immediate postpartum period to managing complex feeding challenges such as low milk supply, delayed lactogenesis, post-cesarean lactation, and infants with dysregulated feeding patterns. I have extensive experience in detailed newborn oral evaluation, including identification and functional assessment of anomalies such as ankyloglossia. I integrate these findings into individualized care plans and frequently collaborate with interdisciplinary providers for frenotomy when indicated, as well as provide structured pre- and post-procedural feeding support to optimize outcomes. My approach is evidence-based, highly individualized, and focused on measurable outcomes. I prioritize effective milk transfer, protection of maternal supply, and long-term sustainability of the breastfeeding relationship. My care plans often incorporate structured supplementation strategies—including the use of supplemental nursing systems to maintain feeding at the breast—alongside selective, clinically appropriate use of galactagogues. I place strong emphasis on ongoing reassessment and adjustment to ensure interventions remain effective. I also have experience supporting higher-risk dyads, including late preterm infants, NICU graduates, and cases involving maternal endocrine or perinatal factors impacting lactation. Working across both inpatient and community environments has given me a clear understanding of care transitions and the gaps families encounter after discharge, allowing me to provide more cohesive, continuous support. My midwifery background strengthens my ability to assess the full maternal–infant dyad and identify contributing factors early, supporting more efficient and durable lactation outcomes. I’m confident practicing autonomously and value strong collaboration within multidisciplinary teams, with a consistent focus on delivering practical, clinically sound, and patient-centered lactation care.”

I’m Sierra, a Certified Birth Doula, Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, and a Certified NICU Doula. My journey into birth work is deeply personal. I was born a miracle baby arriving at just 1 pound, 6 ounces and 24 weeks gestation. Today, I see my work as a full-circle gift: the opportunity to educate, empower, and help improve outcomes for pregnancy, labor, delivery, and NICU experiences. I believe every family deserves a birth filled with confidence, peace, and courage. My role is to meet you where you are providing emotional, physical, and informational support tailored to your needs. If your path includes time in the NICU, I offer compassionate, experienced guidance to help you navigate that journey with strength, clarity, and hope. It’s an honor to walk alongside you in this transformative season of life and to be with you every step of the way. Feel free to check out my website at miraclebabybirthservices.my.canva.site

After a successful 15 year career in nonprofit fundraising and international higher education, I found my life’s purpose in supporting growing families during one of the most life changing event, childbirth. My doula journey started in 2017 and I quickly integrated my years of yoga practice into my doula services by completing my 200-hour and prenatal yoga teacher training in 2018 and my traditional Thai massage training in 2019. My services are rooted in my Buddhist upbringing and the belief in using our innate abilities and the abundant resources we have to face life's challenges with full consent, faith and fortitude.

Hi parents! My name is Nicole Danley and I am a doula located in Southern California. I have been a doula since 2021, and I am also a student midwife with National College of Midwifery. I am a mother of two amazing teenagers, and one surrogate baby in 2021. My journey into the birth world began right after my surrogate journey, as the birth was very traumatic and life altering. After this experience I realized that there are so many facets of birth that are not explained to pregnant women and my mission in life began! Bring as much information and support to families to help them have a positive and empowered birth! I look forward to helping you on your birth journey.
