Night Nannies & Night Nurses Near Me in Placentia, CA

Hello! My name is Shervande Dorvil, but most people refer to me as Shy. I’m an Overnight Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula in the Los Angeles, CA area who specializes in twins. I currently have eight years of experience providing overnight care for newborns and support to parents. I am a punctual and organized individual who takes pride in the knowledge and guidance I can provide when it comes to children’s developmental milestones. I also have experience with sleep shaping, helping families establish healthy sleep habits so that even after my time with them has ended, parents can continue getting the rest they need. It truly warms my heart to see the impact I make in each new household by giving parents the relief of a night of uninterrupted sleep. I know and understand how difficult it can be to entrust someone with your precious bundle of joy, but I promise that your baby’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my highest priority. It takes a village to raise a child. Entrust me to be a part of yours, because I promise you won’t regret it.

I bring warm, calm, practical and highly individualized care that honors your parenting style, your baby’s temperament and your family’s unique needs. Some parents want to stay closely involved throughout the night, while others want to hand me the baby and wake up rested. I am genuinely comfortable with both. During our time together, I provide comprehensive support with newborn care, soothing, diapering, feeding, bottle and pump-part care, baby laundry, nursery restocking and ongoing guidance. Postpartum recovery matters just as much as newborn care, and I want parents to feel fed, hydrated, rested and well cared for while their baby is in capable hands. I have extensive experience supporting breastfeeding, pumping, formula feeding and combination feeding, as well as specialty feeding needs including SNS and Haberman systems. My background as a Compassionate Baby Sleep Coach is naturally woven into my care through normal newborn sleep education, cue recognition, gentle sleep shaping and age-appropriate routines.

I’m Christine Goddard, a DONA-trained postpartum doula and child development specialist. My commitment is to support you and your family during your postpartum journey. With compassion and without judgement, I lean on evidence-based practices and techniques to guide and empower clients. While the new mother is the primary focus of care, it is essential to support all family members with empathy. Our goal throughout is to make your family self-reliant. As a mother of two grown children, I understand the crucial importance of support for parents and their children at every stage of development. For over 12 years, I have worked as a CASA (Court Appointment Special Advocate) for foster children. At times providing postpartum support and guidance. I’ve also worked for non-profit organizations to enhance child development and improve education for children in need. Historically, women have been able to utilize their “village”, (elders and those with experience), as mentors and guides for life changing moments like childbirth.Let me be that village for you!

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.

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.

Hi there! 🤍 Thank you so much for visiting my profile! I’d love to share a little about myself, what led me to birth work, and how I hope to support you and your family through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. As a doula, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and free to make the choices that are right for you and your family. I believe birth is deeply personal, and there is no single “right” way to experience it. Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, considering pain management options, preparing for a cesarean, or still figuring out what feels right for you, you deserve compassionate, judgment-free support every step of the way. I’m here to offer evidence-based information, gentle education, encouragement, and hands-on support while helping you feel confident in your own voice and decisions. My role isn’t to tell you how your birth should look, but to help you feel informed, respected, and cared for throughout the process. I am trained through DONA International and have additional training in childbirth education and breastfeeding support. I’m passionate about helping families feel prepared not only for birth, but also for the transition into parenthood and those tender early postpartum days. Whether you need help navigating your options, reassurance during an overwhelming moment, support with feeding, or simply someone in your corner, I want you to feel that you don’t have to navigate this season alone. My journey into birth work began with my own experience becoming a mother. After the birth of my first daughter, I realized just how unprepared I had felt for labor and delivery. Looking back, I often felt like things were happening to me rather than feeling empowered to make informed decisions based on evidence, my preferences, and my maternal instincts. During my second pregnancy, I knew I wanted a different experience. I immersed myself in research, explored evidence-based birth practices, and became intentional about the kind of experience I wanted for myself and my baby. That journey changed the way I viewed birth and opened my eyes to how much of a difference feeling informed, heard, and supported can make. I knew I wanted to help other families experience that same sense of confidence and empowerment. I would love to connect with you! Whether you know exactly what kind of support you’re looking for or are just beginning to explore your options, you are welcome here. I’d love to learn more about you, your hopes for this season, and how I can best support you and your family. I look forward to meeting you and being part of your journey! 🤍
