Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Pollock Pines, CA

My name is Amber Bardini, and I am the proud owner of Blooming Families Doula Services, LLC - a full spectrum doula agency, serving our wonderful clients throughout the greater Sacramento area and beyond. As a wife, mom of three, and certified full spectrum doula, my mission is to ensure that every parent and parent-to-be feels empowered, nurtured, and fully supported as they navigate this beautiful transition. My journey into the world of doula work began with a passion to make a positive impact on the birth and postpartum experiences of new families. Becoming a parent was one of the most challenging transitions of my life, and I remember how lost and alone I often felt as a new mom. I knew there needed to be a profound change in how we treat new parents and parents-to-be. I am truly dedicated to supporting new families—so they never have to feel the way I did.

My goal is to ensure that every family receives the dedicated care they need to thrive and to help them build a strong, supportive village around them. I believe that every birth and every journey is unique, and every person and new parent is different. What works for one person, may not work for another. We are here to support you according to your specific needs. I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and supportive space for everyone, especially within the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. Everyone is valued, respected, and embraced for who they are. Thank you for considering having us as part of your journey. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you every step of the way.

Hello everyone! My name is Sophia Seidensticker and I am a DONA Certified Birth Doula serving the Sacramento, California area.

Hello, my name is Jamie and I am a Certified Birth Doula in Sacramento, CA! I am also earning my certification as a postpartum doula, lactation consulting and more. I first developed a passion for the Mother's experience when I was in graduate school. I have my Masters in Holistic Psychology with an emphasis in Somatics (soma = body). My thesis project focused on the initial phase of postpartum and the support that Mothers needed and deserved. As a result of that project, I have started The Mother's Temple - a developing programed that is aimed at allowing Mothers the space for an evolving identity of both Individual Self and Mother Self. In addition to a deep passion for the Mother's experience and a foundation in mind-body wellness, I have more than nine years of active childcare experience. I have nannied children 0-10 and have worked as an emotional regulations educator for children 4-11. As your doula, my goal is to make every part of your birth-parenthood journey as grounded and comforting as possible. Whether we meet during your pregnancy or in the midst of your postpartum journey; together we will create a plan that best suits you and your family.

I am a 25 year old mother of two, and my journey into becoming a doula is deeply rooted in my own birth experiences. I’ve had both a hospital birth and two unassisted, natural home births, which gave me a well-rounded perspective on how powerful and capable women are when they feel supported, safe, and heard. During my first birth in a hospital setting, I found myself having to advocate strongly for my own choices, which opened my eyes to how essential it is for mothers to have someone in their corner. What led me to this work is my belief that mothers deserve to be at the center of their birth experience. While the focus often shifts to the baby, a mother’s physical, emotional, and mental well being is just as important especially during and after delivery. Birth environments, particularly hospitals, can sometimes feel chaotic or overwhelming, but with the right support and advocacy, they can also be calm, respectful, and empowering spaces. I understand that while many women desire home births, not all have that option, especially in higher risk situations. As a doula, my role is to help create a peaceful, supportive atmosphere wherever birth takes place, while ensuring that each mother’s voice is heard, respected, and honored throughout her journey.

I am passionate about walking alongside families as they welcome a new baby, offering compassionate, personalized support through both birth and the postpartum period. As a doula, my goal is to help you feel informed, empowered, and cared for every step of the way. Whether I'm providing continuous support during labor or helping your family adjust after your baby's arrival, I strive to create a calm, nurturing environment where you feel seen, heard, and supported. I believe every family deserves compassionate care that honors their unique journey. From emotional encouragement and comfort measures during birth to newborn care, recovery support, and guidance during the postpartum transition, I am committed to helping families build confidence and enjoy this special season of life. It is an honor to be part of such a meaningful moment, and I would love the opportunity to support you with birth and postpartum care as you welcome your newest little one into the world.

I am also a Holistic Fertility Doula, Reiki/Womb Reiki and Yoga practitioner, and Postpartum Doula (In Training). I provide Womb Release Ceremonies for individuals who have experienced harm/trauma to the womb. I come from a lineage of Bodyworkers and Midwives. I enjoy supporting folx and holding space while they are on their healing path. I look forward to supporting you.

I am a certified birth and postpartum doula who has been supporting families since 2020. I was drawn to birth work by a desire to help address the racial disparities Black women and other women of color experience in maternal healthcare, while providing compassionate, individualized support to families from all backgrounds. Through education, advocacy, and compassionate support, I help mothers feel informed, confident, and empowered throughout their journey. I believe every mother deserves to feel heard, respected, supported, and actively involved in the decisions surrounding her care and birth experience. For me, doula work is about more than preparing for labor and birth. It is about building trust, reducing fear, providing reassurance, and creating a supportive space where mothers can ask questions, understand their options, and feel confident using their voice. It brings me genuine joy to walk alongside mothers during such a personal and transformative time, from pregnancy and childbirth through the transition into postpartum and motherhood.

Greetings all, I am Aldeisha Smith, a Birth and Postpartum Doula residing in Northern California. The many layers of conceiving, pregnancy, and birth are astounding and ever evolving. As a proprietor of knowledge, I always find myself looking for new things to learn to teach. With a solid background in Biology and Biological Research, I know that birth has many unanswered questions and uniqueness; all starting with a thought. I am here to assist families with finding the answers to their questions with peace and love at the center. Providing an environment to spark interest in researching and affirming oneself for the best outcomes. My practice creates an engaging atmosphere for the whole family to seek informational and emotional support. In my free time, I enjoy baking, reading books, writing poetry, vending at the local farmers markets and spending time with my family.

After retiring from a long career of working with children and families, I became a professional doula. I wanted to support and nurture birthing persons during this sacred time of their lives. I wanted to offer sacred holistic services to them, youth, and communities by partnering with them as they learn more about holistic reproductive wellness. I also wanted to educate them about the importance of preventive reproductive health care, maternal health justice, trauma-informed quality childcare, equity and advocacy, childbirth education and basic lactation support through coaching, training, and mentoring not only birthing persons but the community and new doulas. So, I immersed and dedicated myself to learning all that I could about how to support in this way. ​ I am the mother of two amazing adult sons and oftentimes reflect on my birthing experiences. They were both very different births but what helped me survive was the birthing team I chose and the village around me when I returned home and encourage those, I serve to embrace their community and build their village. ​ I am also a Childbirth Educator, an author, singer/songwriter, a Master of Ceremony and a speaker. I am a birth justice advocate that believes birth work is justice work and there is no way to separate one from the other!
