✨ Hi friends! I’m Jess (she/her) — a queer birth & postpartum doula based in the Bay Area. I grew up around birth and babies (shoutout to my nurse mom!) and fell in love with supporting new parents early on. After seeing so many of my friends navigate birth and postpartum without the support they deserved and needed, I knew this was the work I was meant to do. I offer care that’s supportive, inclusive, and centered on you—your values, your vision, and your unique journey into parenthood. If you’re pregnant, postpartum, or just dreaming about building your family someday, I’d love to support you. 💛

We were so lucky to connect with Jess through the Birth Companions when looking for doulas in our area who worked with our insurance. After our initial call with Jess, we felt energized and educated and grateful she had availability to work with us. Our early sessions were so informative. Jess made sure to answer all our questions and also prompted helpful reflection and discussion about birth planning that we hadn't yet considered. She previewed for us what the labor process might include and simultaneously assured us that she would be there to help navigate the hospital since you can't plan for everything. She gave us videos and literature, so we felt all the information we accessible and evidence based. When I went into labor, Jess was there at the wee hours of the morning and cheered me on the whole time. She helped with communication and advocacy (I wanted an unmedicated labor), supported my partner to participate (he caught the baby), and stayed with us as we got cleaned up and settles in postpartum. As first time parents, her calm confidence and converation was such a gift! I wholeheartedly hope every birthing parent gets a champion like Jess (or better yet...Jess!!) with them as they navigate the exhausting and amazing process of welcoming a baby.

Hi, I’m Lianne—some like to call me Li. I’m a 34-year-old woman deeply committed to supporting parents and individuals through big life transitions, especially the beautiful, complex journey into parenthood. I understand how vulnerable and transformative this time can be. My goal is to walk alongside you with care and steady support—nurturing not just your baby, but you, and your whole family, as you adjust and grow. In addition to my work with families, I run an organic skincare company that connects me to the natural world through ingredients like shea butter, calendula, castor oil, etc. I bring that same care into your postpartum experience—whether it’s preparing nourishing meals, offering soothing massages and herbal baths, steeping teas, or blending hydrating tonics. Everything I do is designed to support your body, mind, and nervous system. I’m certified in infant CPR and life coaching, and I'm very open to learning if there is something you wish for me to delve into during our journey together! I bring compassion, experience, and a calm presence to every family I work with. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

Lianne has been helping me since my youngest was a few months old and I went back to work. She has been a godsend for us, essentially “being me” while I was home so I could focus on the baby, nursing, and soaking up that precious time. She prepared insanely delicious meals that were nurturing (even my 5 year old enjoyed them!) kept things tidy and helped me make all of my apts on time and without stress. Now that my baby is a little older she still offers to lend a helping hand and has forged a beautiful relationship with both my children. She really fit into the family seamlessly. She knows what needs to be done, helps intuitively without being asked, and is always thinking of how to support and nurture those in her care. She’s one in a million and I can’t speak more highly of her

Hi, I’m Mirella, a postpartum doula based in the Bay Area. I specialize in overnight newborn care, supporting families through the early weeks with their baby for the past 4 years. I help parents feel more rested, confident, and at ease while caring for their newborn, assisting with feeding, soothing, and establishing gentle routines that work for the whole family. My approach is calm, attentive, and tailored to each family. I focus not only on caring for your baby, but also on supporting you; whether that’s helping you get the rest you need, answering questions, or simply offering reassurance during this new chapter. Before your baby arrives, I also offer a complimentary in home visit so we can get to know each other, go over your setup, and make sure you feel fully prepared. My goal is for you to feel confident, supported, and at ease in your early days as a family 🤍

Recent review

I am pleased to offer my most sincere recommendation of Mirella for anyone who is looking for a reliable, capable, nurturing and dedicated postpartum doula. From the moment Mirella walked into our home, I knew we made the right decision in finding support for our newborn! I never thought I could so easily trust another person with my baby, but Mirella has a calm confidence about her that is immediately nurturing and welcoming. Mirella is kind, compassionate, and punctual. Our daughter settled easily in her arms, and even as a breastfeeding mother, I was able to get valuable rest in the early days of motherhood. I quickly considered her a friend of our family. If you are fortunate enough to be able to welcome Mirella into your home, know that you are making an important investment in your physical, emotional, and mental recovery post birth.

I believe every birthing person should have the right to a trauma free birth experience, where their beliefs, values and goals are heard and respected. Birthing bodies are powerful. My goal as a doula is to remind you of the power you hold. I have worked in the medical field for 13 years as a Certified Medical Assistant, Lead Medical Assistant Instructor, recently completed my Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Administration and gained Certification as a Birth and Postpartum Doula. I am a very motivated and determined person. As a dedicated mother and proud African American woman, my heart is deeply rooted in the wellbeing of our community. The glaring disparities in maternal health that disproportionately affect women of color are not just statistics to me; they are urgent calls to action that resonate with my own experiences and those of my loved ones. I am committed to leveraging my knowledge, resources, and voice to initiate and support sustainable changes within the healthcare system. My goal is to ensure that equitable, high-quality maternal care is not a privilege, but a standard afforded to all mothers, regardless of their socioeconomic status. Through community outreach, advocacy, and education, I strive to contribute to a world where maternal mortality in underserved communities is not a grim expectation but a rare exception. My mission is to fight for a future where every mother’s life is given the value it unequivocally deserves.
