Find a Midwife Near Me in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Hello families! I’m Octavia, a trained birth doula serving families across Los Angeles and San Bernardino county. I’m fascinated by the miracle of birth and passionate about offering physical and emotional support to families before, during and after childbirth. I believe families should have informed choices and a voice in how they give birth. I come from a child development background as a preschool teacher so I bring patience, respect and kindness to every situation. In my free time, I love to vacation in tropical locations and spend time with my family.

As your doula, my role is to support you and your family in the way that best helps you feel calm, confident, and present throughout labor. That might look like hands-on support to help you labor more comfortably at home, guiding your partner in how to do the same, offering gentle coaching as you breathe through contractions, or even quietly capturing photos and keeping loved ones updated. Every birth is unique, and I’m flexible to your goals and desires—even if they shift as labor unfolds. While some people picture doulas as very “woo-woo” or mystical, my style is more grounded and pragmatic. I believe in giving you practical tools, evidence-based guidance, and steady encouragement so you can navigate the challenges of labor with clarity and confidence. I love preparing families by educating them about what to expect and how to respond intentionally, rather than react impulsively in the moment. My professional background is in leadership, mentorship, and professional development, and I bring that same skillset into my doula work—helping you tap into your own strength, stay relaxed, and move through labor as smoothly as your body allows. My ultimate goal is to help you experience the fastest, easiest birth your body is capable of, while holding space for you to feel calm, supported, and fully present in the process.

I’ve been a doula for as long as I’ve been a mother, my oldest will be 20 this October. traditionally trained from a young age. . Former board member of Doulas Association of Southern California (DASC) Hosted their OC Doula circle meets. . Formally trained by DONA’s former Board Presidents Ana Paula Markel (BD) and Kathrin Auger (PD), I have 5 babies of my own, ages Baby-19. Birth Nerd by nature. My approach is bringing back our traditional model of care for mothers during birth and postpartum. Slowing down and taking the time to nourish and heal after such a sacred and impactful experience as birthing a new life is. In such a fast paced society we have lost sight of the importance of surrounding new mothers and families with resources and helping hands, I am here to help turn that around.

Hello, I’m Laurie. Natural Childbirth is my Passion!!! Women are far more powerful then they know!!! I am a mom of 4. After having one natural but unpleasant birth. And one Pitocin assisted birth, (which I don't recommend), I decided to try the Bradley method. I now have two Bradley babies. Both were born without any medical interventions or drugs, thanks to the Bradley method. I loved being in control of my labor and having my husband there, supporting me. My classes teach you How to work with your body, not against it. And help your partner to know how to support your laboring needs. So you can work together to get that precious bundle of joy out quicker and with less pain!!!👉YES, it’s possible! 😊 I became a Bradley instructor because I truly believe it works, I know first hand. I truly wouldn't birth any other way. I also love being able to meet all those cute babies. It's such an honor to make an impact in people's lives. By the end of class my students have become my friends and I wouldn't have it any other way. The Bradley method emphasizes that birth is a natural process: mothers are encouraged to trust their body and focus on diet and exercise throughout pregnancy to keep them low risk. It teaches couples to manage labor through relaxation, deep breathing and the support of a partner or labor coach. Bradley Method® classes teach families how to have natural births, by being their our doulas. The techniques are simple, effective, and based on information about how the human body works during labor.

Wild Womb Birth Co. 🌕 brand story Birth work is more than a job to me. It is a calling that lives in the body, instinct, & in the womb. Wild Womb Birth Co. was created from a deep devotion to women and the sacred work of birth. I believe birth is not something to be managed or controlled, but something to be held, honored, and trusted. The “wild” speaks to intuition - our innate knowing that exists beneath fear and outside noise. The “womb” represents creation, wisdom, and the space where transformation begins - not just for babies, but for mothers. My work is rooted in presence, advocacy, and reverence for each woman’s unique journey. I walk alongside women during one of the most vulnerable and powerful seasons of their lives, offering grounded support, education, and unwavering belief in their bodies.

Hi, I’m Yoli 🤍👶 A certified doula and experienced Labor & Delivery nurse, and co-founder of Vida Birth Services alongside my business partner, Mercedez. We are proud to be a Latina-owned business based in Riverside, California, serving families throughout the Inland Empire and all surrounding areas. As bilingual providers, we offer support in both English and Spanish to ensure every woman feels understood, respected, and truly cared for—without language barriers. With years of hands-on experience in labor, delivery, and emergency care, I’ve witnessed both the beauty of birth and the gaps that still exist in how women are prepared and supported. We’ve seen too many women walk into birth feeling overwhelmed, unheard, or unsure of their options—and we knew something needed to change. That’s why we created Vida Birth Services 💗 Our mission is to empower women through education, advocacy, and personalized support—so they can walk into birth feeling confident, informed, and in control of their experience. At Vida, we offer comprehensive birth education classes designed to teach you exactly what’s happening in your body, what to expect during labor, your options for pain management, and how to recognize and respond to potential complications. We believe that education is power—and when a woman understands her body, she can advocate for herself and make the best decisions for her and her baby. In addition to education, we provide doula support that focuses on emotional reassurance, physical comfort, and strong advocacy during one of the most important moments of your life. From pregnancy through birth, you are never alone—we are there to guide, support, and stand beside you every step of the way. As Latina women in healthcare, this work is deeply personal to us. We are passionate about creating a safe space where women—especially women of color—feel seen, heard, and protected throughout their journey. Every mama deserves to feel heard. Every birth deserves to be respected. And every woman deserves to walk into that room feeling prepared, powerful, and supported. ✨ Vida is more than a service—it’s a movement to change the birth experience.

Hi there! Thank you so much for visiting my site and for your interest in my services. I would love to give you a little info about me so you can better understand who I am and how I can help you along your journey in parenthood. My name is Janee and I live in Cypress with my husband, Jake and our 4 daughters. After the birth of my first daughter, I realized how underprepared I was for labor. I looked back on my experience unhappy with the things that were ‘done to me,’ rather than being able to make educated decisions based on evidence and my maternal instincts. During my second pregnancy, I knew I wanted to be more prepared and have a completely different birth experience. I did a lot of research on evidence-based practices and created an ideal vision for what I wanted this next birth to look like. After my dream birth, I immediately felt justified for wanting more for myself AND my baby. I had a newfound sense of empowerment as a mother. Ever since, I knew I wanted to be a part of this amazing birth community to help other families feel this same joy. My goal is to provide gentle education, encouragement, and support in whichever ways you need it, while tending to your family’s unique needs during this beautiful time in your life. I am a trained Doula through DONA International. I also have extensive training in childbirth education and breastfeeding support. I welcome all inquiries. Please use my Contact page to send me a message about what you’re looking for and how I can help you. I look forward to speaking with you!
