Originally from Liverpool, England and now living in Marin County, California, I am the mum of 6 beautiful children and a grandma to one. Each and every birth was unique, whether it was at home, a birthing centre, or in a hospital. The level of prenatal and postpartum care I received, definitely impacted my birth experience and I really feel every mum should feel safe and in control of her choices, as much as she can when she is going through one of the most unique and special moments in their life. I love supporting other parents on their journey, whether it be for advice, support or just to chat about what's to come. Feeling prepared makes for a much easier birth journey :) I trained with Doula Trainings international as a birth and postpartum doula. I have been a volunteer with the Postpartum Support Center through the Marin Diaper Bank and now as a facilitator for the ROSE program. When not supporting families you will find me looking after my granddaughter, walking my dog, hiking, or enjoying friend and family time.

Hi! I’m a mom of two boys, a wife, and a professionally trained postpartum doula living in beautiful Marin County, California. My passion for helping mothers during the postpartum period sprang from my own postpartum experience with my first child. I focused so much attention and preparation on my pregnancy and birth that when it came time to take care of my new baby, I was completely overwhelmed. I felt alone, isolated and in over my head. Had I had a compassionate and skilled postpartum doula come into my home to help me process my birth story, help me feed my baby, and allow me to rest and recover properly, my postpartum period would have been so much easier— perhaps even enjoyable! The first six weeks after giving birth is a vulnerable time for new mothers. They need just as much love, attention and support as their new babies— which isn’t a concept that is widely embraced in our society. That is where I can step in and bridge the gap of care for moms and families. I provide a listening ear without judgement, a second set of hands, and evidence-based resources and referrals so families can thrive in the fourth trimester.

While growing my own family, I felt deeply called to birth work and became a doula. Over time I discovered that my greatest passion lives in the fourth trimester—supporting mothers and families as they transition, heal, and find their rhythm together. As a postpartum doula, I focus on nurturing the mother, creating steadiness in the home, and helping the whole family integrate this new chapter with care, confidence, and connection. My goal is to provide grounded support so you feel seen, rested, and truly supported during this tender and transformative time.

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!
