I’m a Board-Certified Lactation Consultant and Registered Nurse. I have 28 years of experience helping families during this amazing yet challenging time.

I am a full-spectrum doula serving the Santa Cruz, Watsonville, and San Jose areas. I specialize in birth, postpartum, miscarriage, and abortion.

Hi, I’m Agustina — a mother, nurse, and doula with a deep love for walking alongside families in their birthing journeys. I come from another country and now feel grateful to serve my new community, offering support in both English and Spanish so more families can feel seen and cared for. My own path began with the birth of my daughter, an experience that opened my heart and inspired me to dedicate my life to this work. Birth showed me the strength, vulnerability, and beauty of bringing life into the world — and I knew I wanted to hold space for others in that sacred moment. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll often find me at the farmers market with my daughter, listening to holistic health podcasts, or walking along the beach. These simple joys keep me grounded and connected, just as I strive to help the families I serve feel rooted and cared for. With years of nursing experience and as a student midwife, I bring both knowledge and a gentle presence. My care is rooted in listening, nurturing, and honoring the whole person — body, mind, and spirit. As your doula, my promise is to center you. I’ll walk beside you with compassion, respect, and love, so you feel supported, empowered, and held every step of the way.

My name is Shante, and I am passionately dedicated to guiding women through the transformative journey of childbirth as a birth Doula. With an unwavering commitment to empowering women, I have made it my mission to ensure that every woman I support enters motherhood with confidence, informed choices, and a positive birth experience. One of my areas of expertise is hospital birth, emotional support, and the labor techniques. By skillfully assisting mothers in optimizing fetal positioning, I enhance their chances of a smoother and more comfortable labor. This technique aligns with my commitment to ensuring that the birthing process is as natural and harmonious as possible. In addition, I am well-versed in Hypno-Birthing, a practice that harnesses the power of the mind-body connection to alleviate fear and discomfort during labor. Beyond the physical aspects of childbirth, I recognize the paramount importance of emotional and mental support. I stand by each woman's side as an encouraging voice, providing a safe space for her to express her feelings and fears. My role extends beyond the birthing process itself, encompassing the entire spectrum of emotions that come with the transition to motherhood. As a birth Doula, my commitment to women's well-being goes beyond a profession – it is my calling. I am driven by the knowledge that I have the privilege to make a profound impact on the lives of both mothers and their newborns. My ultimate goal is to facilitate an experience that is not only empowering but also sets the foundation for a strong and nurturing bond between mother and child. I am here to provide guidance, support, and advocacy.

Hello! I’m Shana—a passionate doula dedicated to supporting women and their families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I draw on my own childbirth experiences and ongoing studies to offer compassionate and informed care. It’s an honor to share the knowledge I’ve gained and to walk alongside you during this unique and precious season of life.

I’m Katie Galvin, Postpartum Doula and Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutritional Practitioner. After my own experience with “postpartum anxiety & depression,” (which was really undiagnosed postpartum thyroiditis) I decided to become a functional practitioner to help other moms navigate common postpartum hormonal changes using a holistic approach. Conventional medicine often fails new moms by dismissing their concerns or offering pills as the only solutions to common (but not normal) symptoms like: anxiety, depression, irregular/heavy/painful periods, insomnia, hot flashes, etc. There are better options! I use functional lab testing to identify imbalances in the body and help bring it back into balance through functional nutrition and lifestyle changes so moms can get back to feeling their best!
