Hello everyone! My name is Ariel Amarkarian, and I am an Armenian social justice advocate and dedicated birth worker. As a trained FULL SPECTRUM doula working toward certification with Birthing Advocacy, Stillbirthday, and DONA International. I provide compassionate emotional, physical, and informational support to all birthing people throughout every stage of their journey, from prenatal care to postpartum healing. Death is also an intrinsic part of life, and I am committed to supporting families through both the beauty of birth and the grief of loss. In addition to supporting childbirth, and postpartum, I also specialize in abortion care. I recognize that access to safe, respectful abortion services is a vital part of healthcare. My work is deeply rooted in principles of reproductive justice, health equity, inclusion, trauma-informed care, liberation and LOVE. If I am not geeking out over babies you can find me writing spoken word poetry, enjoying a good book, dancing, or watching reality TV (it's my guilty pleasure).

You deserve to feel confident on your birth journey! What if instead of feeling overwhelmed by shoulds, you felt excited by the coulds in your pregnancy and birth? I believe that the right doula support can significantly increase your confidence and satisfaction in your birth experience. I offer birth and postpartum doula services, as well as private childbirth education. In hospitals, at home or in a birth center, families often use the words “calm” and “confident” when they describe the way they feel when we work together. I guide you to tune into your own needs and values in birth, leading to a more meaningful and peaceful experience. Get in touch! I would love to hear more about what you want from your birth experience. -Rebecca Belenky www.losangelesbirth.com

Hello 🙂 My name is Marchael, and I am from Pomona, California. My journey into becoming a doula stem from my deep love for natural birth, witnessing the beauty of babies being born, and providing support to women during pregnancy and labor. Before pursuing formal training as a doula, I had the privilege of attending three hospital births. These experiences sparked a profound interest in natural childbirth and fueled my passion for supporting mothers during this transformative time. I began following midwives and doulas on social media sites such as YouTube and Instagram, truly immersing myself in their knowledge and practices. It was during this time that I realized I was drawn to this field. A close friend asked me to be her doula and without hesitation, I said yes. That experience solidified my desire to pursue formal training and turn this passion into a career. My background as a nanny for babies aged 6 weeks to 2 years, in addition to my time working as a travel nanny, has given me valuable experience in caring for infants and supporting families. I’ve always been naturally welcoming, positive, nurturing, and supportive. Qualities that I believe align perfectly with the role of a doula. These personal attributes, combined with my hands-on experience and love for natural birth, have confirmed that this is my true calling. I am thrilled and look forward to helping your family navigate the beautiful journey of welcoming your little blessings into the world.
