Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Pomona, CA

Hello, I’m Chris Hinkley. I’ve been married for 40 years, and I’m the proud mom of three grown sons and a grandma to one sweet grandson. Family has always been at the center of my life, and it’s what inspired me to dedicate my work to supporting new parents. As a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, I love coming alongside families during those tender first months. My heart is to help you feel rested, supported, and confident as you learn to care for your little one. I combine practical newborn care and healthy sleep foundations with gentle encouragement—because I believe parents thrive best when they feel both capable and cared for. Every family is unique, and I tailor my approach to your needs and values. Whether you need help with feedings, sleep routines, or just a calm presence in your home, I’m here to make the transition smoother. My greatest joy is watching parents grow in confidence, knowing they can not only get through the newborn stage—but truly enjoy it.

Hi! I’m Rechelle, a trained postpartum doula and newborn care specialist based in Long Beach, CA. Growing up in Victorville, an underserved community with limited access to OB/GYNs and specialized care, shaped my passion for maternal health and advocacy. My journey into postpartum support began with an internship at Black Infant Health, where I saw firsthand the impact of culturally relevant care, especially for Black families facing higher risks and poor health outcomes. I trained with the DNT Network, a program that prepares doulas to provide high-quality, evidence-based postpartum and newborn care, because I value relationship-centered, accurate, and accessible care for every family. My background in public health, combined with personal experience supporting my brother who has special needs, has shown me the gaps families face and inspired my mission to close them. As a doula, my philosophy is simple: every family deserves compassionate, personalized support. I work closely with families to provide postpartum care in ways that are grounded, practical, and nurturing. Whether it’s feeding, soothing, sleep, light household tasks, or emotional support, my focus is on practical care that makes your nights easier. My mission is to reduce maternal health disparities while honoring the unique needs of each family I serve.

i am an experienced Nurse and IBCLC for over 20 years. I strive to provide supportive holistic support. I believe in an evidenced based approach and tailor my services to individual specific care. I would love to support you on your journey. Please reach out anytime. Thank you. Jenniferlactationlady4u.com

Hi, I am Angel and I am a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula as well as NICU Doula located in Southern California.

Ali Carr is a birth doula based on the westside of Los Angeles and a mama of 3 daughters. She supports families from early pregnancy through birth, in early postpartum and into motherhood. Rooted in both ancient wisdom and science, her work helps parents unearth their inner knowing and feel informed by evidence, so they can navigate birth and parenthood from a place of alignment and confidence. With reverence for birth as a rite-of-passage, Ali brings a slow, nurturing approach so her clients feel held in the sacredness of this special time, while also empowered in their capabilities and knowledge. Ali trained as an apprentice under award-winning childbirth educator, Britta Bushnell, author of Transformed by Birth.

I'm a New Yorker of Caribbean descent, a tomboy at heart who loves hard, plays sports, and is creative. A former educator, I see pregnancy as sacred community work and my clients as family. My doula philosophy is rooted in radical presence, cultural humility, and Christ-centered service. I believe every birth deserves advocacy, informed choice, and a warm village wrapped around it. My intention is to create a safe, judgment-free space where families feel seen, heard, and held in their full stories, whether in joy, grief, or the in-between. I try to live out the Acts-church model, showing up, sharing life, and walking alongside families as I follow God's divine direction while continually learning and growing. I've been a doula for about five years and am now on my journey to become a midwife, carrying that same heart of service into clinical care. Serving the community is my daily bread; I get to serve God's children with my hands, my skills, and my presence, and that is what truly gives me life.

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.
