Rachel Meakins is a doula, lactation counselor, childbirth educator, newborn care specialist, and maternal health advocate based in Los Angeles. Through her practice, Zenbari, she supports women and families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the transition into modern motherhood with a calm, highly personalized approach. With a background spanning pre-med studies, psychology, public relations, maternal health coaching, and perinatal education, Rachel brings both emotional depth and practical systems-thinking into her work. She is known for helping families feel informed, steady, and genuinely supported — not only during birth, but throughout the massive physical, relational, and identity shifts that come with becoming a parent. Her care combines evidence-based education with intuitive, real-life support. Clients often work with Rachel for guidance around birth preparation, feeding, newborn care, postpartum recovery, household dynamics, partner communication, and creating sustainable systems that allow mothers to feel more resourced and less overwhelmed during the early months. In addition to her private client work, Rachel works in maternal health education and community advocacy, serves as a Fair Play facilitator, and is a health coach focused on the vaginal microbiome and women’s health across fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum. Her philosophy is that mothers deserve thoughtful, coordinated care that considers the full picture — not just the baby, but the woman, her relationships, her recovery, her nervous system, and the life she is returning to afterward.

My journey as a labor doula began in 2021, driven by a deep passion for supporting families during one of life’s most transformative moments. With a strong foundation in newborn and infant care since 2015, I feel truly honored to walk alongside parents as they welcome their little ones into the world. My background includes working as a Floortime therapist for children with ASD, serving as an after-school program director, and capturing magical memories as a photographer at Disneyland. Yet, nothing compares to the profound joy of hearing a baby's heartbeat on a monitor and then witnessing their first cries as they enter the world. I am committed to continuous learning and aspire to expand my expertise as a postpartum doula and grief/death doula, ensuring I can provide compassionate care at every stage of the journey.

Courtney Falcon was our back up doula for our second child, but it ended up being a great experience and possibly even kismet. We were very lucky to have someone take charge in a warm and loving manner. We felt supported every step of the way. She even stayed many late hours after the birth to help make sure our son was stable and didn't have to go to the NICU. Without her diligence, our child wouldn't have been able to avoid the NICU- she was a godsend. She's extremely knowledgeable, and is always looking to expand her learning. She was always providing us with more resources than we even knew we needed, and not just about babies, but about child/toddler behavior as well. Courtney is also excellent with babies and children, and provided some child care to our family during our times of need. With her previous background working with kids, we felt our kids were in the best of hands. We cannot recommend Courtney Falcon enough to be your doula, please book her today!

Our experience with Melanie was nothing short of exceptional. Melanie was our NCS from the day our son was born until 6 months of age. She truly operated as the Lead NCS for our household, setting the standard for everyone else and ensuring that everything ran seamlessly. Her level of organization was outstanding. Melanie was always proactive about keeping me informed on anything that needed restocking and made sure our home was consistently well prepared and fully supplied. Melanie’s commitment to hygiene and safety was a huge stand out for us. She maintained the highest standards of cleanliness in caring for our newborn and was incredibly diligent about safe sleep practices at all times, which gave us real peace of mind. Every night, she provided thoughtful, consistent updates so we always knew exactly how our son was doing. Melanie also took the initiative to organize and coordinate the nightly schedule between myself and the other staff, ensuring everyone was aligned and that care was consistent. All of our son’s feeding, sleeping, and changing items were always perfectly organized and ready, making everything feel effortless. Beyond technical skills, Melanie brought a level of professionalism and leadership that elevated our entire household. She truly ran a well-managed, attentive, and calm environment for our son, and we are incredibly grateful for the care and structure she provided during such an important time. We hope to have her back for baby #2!

Hi there! If you’re looking for overnight newborn care, I’d be delighted to help. My name is Maria, and I am a Certified Newborn Care Specialist (NCS, also known as a night nanny or night nurse), Postpartum Doula, Sleep Consultant, and a Certified Lactation Educator Counselor. I specialize in overnight newborn care and currently have availability for nighttime positions. I bring extensive experience, a genuine passion for caring for newborns, and a nurturing, patient, and understanding approach that parents trust. References, contact numbers, and my resume are available upon request. I am CPR & First Aid Pediatric certified, TrustLine certified, fully immunized (including COVID-19), and able to travel anywhere within Los Angeles County. My mission is to provide newborns and families with safe, compassionate, and individualized care, ensuring both baby and parents rest easy. I would love the opportunity to support your family and make those first weeks with your newborn as smooth and restful as possible.

If you’re reading this, hire her. Maria is the best decision we made when we found out our first pregnancy was twins. Speaking to her took away my fears of two babies at once and as soon as they were home she took wonderful care of them. She got us on a schedule, was wonderful with my NICU baby, helped get them sleeping long stretches, and supported a medical issue that impacted ability to feed. Our newborn experience was so much better with her here. She’s also really easy to have in your home and I enjoyed her immensely. One tip for twin moms- account for adjusted age when determining contract length because it really does take 12 weeks adjusted to sleep full nights!

Hello, I am a certified Postpartum Doula living in West LA with my husband and two children. Since becoming a mother myself, I’ve realized I have a nurturing spirit inside me. As your postpartum doula, I will be there supporting and educating you through the first 4 to 6 weeks after welcoming your new baby, and provide you a safe, empowering space for you to bond with your baby and heal both mentally and physically after birth.

Recent review

As first-time parents without a local support system, hiring Kate as our postpartum doula was one of the best decisions we made. From the very first day, her warm, kind, and calming presence instantly put our minds at ease during what can be an overwhelming transition. Kate is incredibly knowledgeable and informative, and she taught us so much about caring for our baby—always in a way that felt supportive and never judgmental. Over the first couple of months of our son’s life, Kate truly felt like a member of our family. She guided us through early parenthood with compassion and confidence, helping us navigate everything from soothing our baby and changing diapers to cooking delicious meals and simply being a steady shoulder to lean on. Thanks to her, we now feel equipped and confident as parents, and we know we can always rely on Kate as a trusted helping hand. We 100% recommend Kate to any parents, especially first-timers. Thank you, Kate!

Recent newborn care specialist reviews near Redondo Beach

Helena is amazing!!!! We have absolutely loved having her as our babysitter for our son. From the very beginning, she has been dependable, caring, and so attentive to his needs. He always smiles so big when she walks through the door. She is patient, and has followed our instructions perfectly. She is always on time, communicates well, and keeps us updated throughout the night. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a reliable, kind, and loving babysitter and/or night doula! We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her.

— Rachel K., review of Helena Alonso July 2026

We are beyond grateful to have had Andrea by our side. She prepared me so well for birth and has continued to support us postpartum with her knowledge, experience, and thoughtful guidance. During labor, she was an incredible source of calm and strength. She empowered us to make our own informed decisions, always making sure we understood our options. She worked seamlessly with the doctors and nurses while also advocating for our wishes. She seemed to know exactly what I needed, even before I did, and communicated with the medical team when I couldn’t. Andrea made us feel safe, supported, and truly cared for throughout our journey. We couldn’t have asked for a better doula, and we will always be grateful for everything she did for our family.

— verena klein, review of Andrea Weaver July 2026

Absolutely! Here it is: Helena started working with my family when my son was about 3 months old. He’s now almost 1 year old and we still love and have Helena in our lives today. Helena was my night doula in the early months of having to pump and take care of my son. She helped wash bottles, organized his toys/play area, gave me lots of advice and tips all the way through each stage. At 7 months I decided to have Helena come back and sleep train my son, it was amazing he went from waking up 2-3x a night to eat to sleeping through the night. She explained her process and it worked beautifully. Since then we have referred her to family and friends in similar situations and they have all good things to say as well. We love Helena, my son prefers her over other babysitters and lights up when she’s around. Writing her a review, but I call first dibs! Helena has also gone on multiple trips with us and I plan on bringing her along to many more.
