About me
My name is Rebecca Garcia and I am thrilled you are seeking out a Doula for your journey. I have a strong energetic pull towards this life changing work, and I am so honored to be pursuing my passion as a birth worker. I love all things birth and feel that my strongest assets are listening, empathy, providing resources and cooking homemade meals for others. I tell all my clients, if there is a birth I am there. With all the stigma and negative depictions in the media surrounding birth, I want to ensure that my clients feel secure in all their decisions without any judgments. This Is Your Body, Your Birth & Only You Get To Make The Decisions That Work Best For You & Your Baby. I have two little wildlings of my own; ages 4 and 6. I had doulas for both births and feel as though they made my birthing journey undeniably memorable. They feed me, hit pressure points during labor, loved me, educated me and most importantly encouraged me to find my voice and strength. These are the experiences I wish to provide to my future clients. I have experience in home-births, birth centers & hospital settings. I understand that ones birthing journey is a sacred space, and wish to only support and offer any resources that may help aid in this time. If you are interested or just want to connect and talk anything birth, postpartum or baby please feel free to reach out. I am located in San Francisco and I am extending my services throughout the surrounding Bay Area. Virtual Options Also Provided

Ratings and reviews
I feel so fortunate to have had Becca as our birth doula for our first child. Becca is knowledgeable, caring, non judgmental, and supportive. Ahead of birth she helped educate us about labor/ delivery so we could make informed decisions about our birth preferences, gave us strategies to manage pregnancy and labor pains, and supported our emotional journey. I gave birth in the hospital with minimal intervention (no epidural) and Becca was there by my side the entire time providing counter-pressure to help alleviate my pain and helping position me to help the baby move down. She worked seamlessly with the hospital staff. After our baby’s birth Becca checked in regularly to see how I was healing and how baby was doing, provided tips and resources, and brought us nourishing food. I’m so happy we had Becca to guide us through the birth journey.

Becca worked with me and my husband as a doula prior to and during the delivery of our first child. I had numerous medical complications and always knew that I would be giving birth in a hospital and that significant interventions might be medically necessary, so for me, working with a birth doula stemmed from a desire to have someone help me work through those decisions that were mine to make during labor. Becca was a calm, loving and respectful presence throughout, and someone my provider, the nurses and especially my husband also appreciated having in the room. Becca also work with us overnight a few nights a week for the first 3 months of our son's life, and she was invaluable in helping us set up sustainable rhythms for our family. We recommend Becca without reservation in both capacities.
