Find a Newborn Care Specialist Near Me in Pleasant Hill, CA

Hi, I'm Eve! As a mother of two with a background in Child Development and years spent teaching infants and young children, I know how profound and disorienting the early stages of parenthood can be. I know the questions you didn't expect to have, the vulnerability you didn't see coming, and how much it would have meant to have someone simply show up and hold it all with me. That knowing is what led me here. At the heart of it, what I care about most is human connection: being genuinely present with people during the moments that matter most is where I feel most alive in my work. My approach is rooted in the belief that postpartum care should feel like an exhale. Our society underrecognizes how profound this season truly is, and that gap is exactly where my heart lies. I show up without judgment, without a script, and without a single "right" way to do any of this. Every experience you have belongs, including the hard ones. Whether I'm helping you rest, supporting a feed, processing emotions, or simply being a calm presence in the room, my goal is the same: to validate what you're feeling, encourage you at every turn, and remind you to trust yourself. You were never meant to hold this alone.

Let's navigate this transformative journey together!

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.
