Please reach out to me through my instagram: @sddarlingdoula or email: sddarlingdoula@gmail.com Hi I’m Summer! I’m a Birth Doula passionate about giving parents the tools they need to advocate for themselves and their birthing choices! I first decided to become a Doula after hearing countless stories of doctors pressuring unnecessary interventions, making what should be the most special day of your life, into a traumatic experience. I was struck by how susceptible new parents can be to misinformation, and my goal as a doula is to eliminate that uncertainty and foster a loving and safe birthing environment for mother and child. Of course the most important thing is that mama and baby are healthy, but that’s not the only important thing. I believe that as a mother your instinct is just as strong as that fetal ejection reflex 💪🏽 and my job is to help you listen to it. I absolutely love being a doula and am so excited to support more families through this amazing journey. I would love to connect so please feel free to reach out anytime! 🌻✨

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.

At a Birthing Bees, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive support services, through an evidence-based approach for pregnant women throughout San Diego County. My goal is to help woman feel informed, supported, and empowered, before, during and after childbirth.

I am a postpartum doula, born and raised in San Diego, a lactation educator, and author of the book I’ll Remember You”-available on Etsy.com. I am a mother of seven children, and I am very passionate about providing new mothers and their families the physical and emotional support they deserve while adjusting to life with a new baby(or babies!). I love being able to play a role in making that transition easier.

I am a Korean-American mom of 3 bi-racial children who are all 1 year apart and entering their teen years. My own experiences have informed my practice of working with women who are pregnant for the first or 3rd time, new parents and seasoned parents who are managing the challenges of balancing the many aspects of raising kids whether in a partnership or as a single parent. Though I'm trained in various modalities to treat perinatal mood disorders and use a trauma informed, integrative approach, in my practice it's the human connection that is prioritized.

I’m a postpartum doula supporting families during the fourth trimester.

As a DONA certified Birth Doula, I am thrilled to be able to help families during one of the most exciting and beautiful moments in their lives-having a baby. I'm passionate about nutrition and natural remedies but as someone who is continuing their studies in the medical field, I am also very science oriented in my practice. I believe people should be able to have the birth they desire with the support they deserve.

Hi!! Welcome! Brandi Kiesling here! I know how overwhelming it can be as a first-time parent, especially with a new life in the house!! I'm here to say, "I gotchu!" Helping out with newborn care, diaper changes, bottle or body feeding assistance, light housekeeping, baby laundry, full overnight baby care so you and your partner getting the eight hour sleep you deserve (my fave), emotional support, meal prep and resource guidance. I follow Dr. Harvey Karp, world reknowned pediatrcian to the stars and follow the 5 S's. Soothe, Swaddle, Side-Stomach position, Shush, Swing and Suck. Continuing the nine-month environment your baby has been acclimated to, continues outside the womb the first three months of birth.

I have always been someone who loves to take care of others. For family and friends, I was the one they’d call in an emergency, when someone is passing, when life decisions were being made. I went to college to become a nurse because I wanted to ensure I had a career where I could support people. God works in mysterious ways and I wasn’t able to apply for the nursing program at the college I went to. I had decided to get a degree in Health Systems Management and later, to do the accelerated nursing program. Plans don’t typically work on the way you dream and I found myself two kids later, 1 year too late, unable to apply for the accelerated nursing program. During this season, I had Andrew, our child that wasn’t birthed with the support of a doula, and I knew, being a doula was my answer. I’ve had felt unseen, unheard and unimportant when I was giving birth and I wanted to make sure that didn’t happen to others. I’m often get introduced as “Doula Jenn” and, I love it. I don’t just doula people through childbirth, I support through life. Parenthood is hard, marriages are hard, finding connection with friends is hard and I want to come alongside you in life. I’m an active member of the High Vibe Mom Tribe and I host virtual book clubs several times a year to support women through their marriages.

Hi, I’m Chloe Morin. Mother of two, a bonus mom of one, and now, a birth and postpartum doula. My journey into motherhood has shaped me in ways I never expected, revealing both the beauty and the deep vulnerability of bringing life into the world. I believe there are two moments in life when heaven meets earth—marriage and birth. Birth is raw, powerful, and life-changing, and no woman should have to navigate it alone. My passion is to stand with women in one of the most vulnerable times of their lives, offering support, advocacy, and a steady presence, no matter what their journey looks like. Beyond birth, I am dedicated to postpartum care that truly nurtures. The fourth trimester is just as important as birth itself, and every mother deserves care that honors her healing—physically, emotionally, and mentally. My goal is simple: to ensure women feel supported, seen, and strong in this transformative season of life. I would be honored to walk this journey with you.

I first found Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis when I was pregnant with my first baby and working as a bedside nurse in a busy hospital postpartum unit. I knew my body was meant to give birth, but I felt the negativity and fear of those around me was preventing me from enjoying this transformative time in my life. Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis gave me back my joy and even more. It gave me a confidence and excitement about birth that I didn't even know was possible. I went on to become a board certified lactation consultant and certified maternal newborn nurse and also attended many births as an L&D nurse. 11 years and 2 Hypnobabies of my own later, I am so happy to share this complete childbirth education class with my community and bring joy and love into the lives of birthing families.

I am a trained Australian Registered Nurse and Midwife, an early childhood RN and Nurse Educator.

Hello! I'm Danielle, a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist located in Huntington Beach, California.

With a foundation in Early Childhood Development, I understand the emotional and developmental needs of both babies and parents, which allows me to offer practical, compassionate care tailored to each family. I’ve worked with moms facing everything from first-time nursing challenges to complex feeding plans, and I believe that every parent deserves respectful, evidence-based support without pressure or judgment.

Hello! My name is Jillian Manriquez. I am an enthusiast of humans helping humans. Although I have not experienced any of my own pregnancies, I have physically, mentally, and emotionally with my mom's three experiences. I've seen my mom go through each pregnancy differently as well as each of their births being unique in their own way but beautiful in every way. I have experienced seeing a supportive birth team by your side helps every woman feel more empowered and supported during this beautiful experience. My reason for becoming a birth doula is to come alongside each woman to support their desired birth plan and help them feel empowered through a vulnerable time.

Hi Parents! I’m Nathielle, and I work as a night nurse, helping families care for their little ones overnight so they can get the rest they need. I have more than 7 years of hands-on experience with newborns, toddlers, and even twins, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your baby while you sleep. I’m calm, caring, and always try to bring a sense of peace and routine to the night, whether it’s helping with feedings, diaper changes, or just comforting a fussy baby back to sleep. I’ve worked with many different families and know that every baby—and every household—is a little different. I do my best to adapt to what works for you and your child, and I’m always happy to offer gentle guidance when needed. Whether you’re first-time parents or juggling multiple little ones, I’m here to support you and help make those nighttime hours a little easier!
