I am a wife, mom of three and a certified doula. I trained to be a doula in 2016 with the International Center for Traditional Childbearing. I trained also with the National Black Doulas Association, I am certified and a member of this organization as well. I have been working full time as a doula since June of 2019. I love educating my clients, supporting and helping them to advocate for the births that they want. My philosophy around birth and working with clients is that it's your birth. I am here to educate you and support you in your decisions.

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 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 friends! I’m Jess (she/her) — a queer birth & postpartum doula based in the Bay Area. I grew up around birth and babies (shoutout to my nurse mom!) and fell in love with supporting new parents early on. After seeing so many of my friends navigate birth and postpartum without the support they deserved and needed, I knew this was the work I was meant to do. I offer care that’s supportive, inclusive, and centered on you—your values, your vision, and your unique journey into parenthood. If you’re pregnant, postpartum, or just dreaming about building your family someday, I’d love to support you. 💛

I was born and raised in the Bay Area and I am the middle child to two brothers. I grew up in a tight-knit family filled with mostly women so pregnancy was around me my whole life. I was always there when family members came home helping care for them and the baby in whatever I could. I started out as a pre-school teacher and a special education teacher’s assistant, both roles I enjoyed. I did my first official doula training in 2018 and immediately knew I had found my place. Learning about the birth disparities black women face and personal experience from my own birth made my drive to help women of color come alive. I have a special interest in breastfeeding as well and I hope I can help more women and people have successful breastfeeding journeys. As an aspiring midwife and I know that being a doula will help me in my journey there. I became a birthworker because I want to help other birthing women and peoples experience power in their birth and postpartum time. When I had my daughter I had some of my power taken away from me and I want to help other birthing women and people know their rights so that can never happen. I chose this path because I want to make sure they feel loved, protected, well informed, and heard. I see it as my responsibility to my community to be of service and purposeful in the care I provide.
