Helping family during postpartum is my second calling in life; massage therapy was first. I am naturally drawn to bring holistic care to family in this new journey, or a continuation of life and transitions.

I'm all about breaking down barriers and ensuring that every parent, regardless of background or circumstances, has the support they deserve. In my role as a Doula, I'm there to provide emotional, physical, and informational support during the incredible journey of pregnancy and childbirth.

Hello everyone, my name is Momo Bass and I am a certified birth doula as well as a trained postpartum doula that serves the greater Los Angeles and Pasadena area. Aside from doing this rewarding work for a while, I am also a mama myself, to three amazing kiddos! When I'm not cheering on my kids at soccer practice, you'll likely find me tending to my ever-growing houseplant collection, or tending to myself at the gym. But my true passion lies in supporting families embarking on their incredible birthing journey. Motherhood is what threw me into the thralls of what it means to bring life into this world. It's this firsthand knowledge, coupled with my relentless curiosity about the miracle of birth and the transition into becoming a parent, that led me to become a birth and postpartum doula. Bringing my kiddos earth side became my superpower, and it’s become my mission to ignite that same fire in the families I work with. I believe that starts with finding judgment-free informational and emotional support, and I believe it starts when parents take back control of how their labor & postpartum experience goes by making informed decisions on what’s best for yourself and your growing family. “Everyone wants to hold the baby, but who will hold the mother/parents?” As a birth and postpartum doula, I will!

I had the pleasure of working alongside Monique as my co-doula, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional professional. Momo brings warmth, compassion, and unwavering dedication to every family she supports. Her calm demeanor and intuitive ability to anticipate the needs of both birthing parents and their partners make her a reliable and invaluable presence during such an important time. Working with Momo, I’ve seen firsthand how her knowledge, experience, and genuine care create a safe and empowering space for her clients. She has a natural gift for fostering connection and ensuring her clients feel heard, supported, and respected throughout their journey. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Momo by their side. She’s not just a doula but a true advocate and companion for the families she serves. Warmly, Maia S

Nikki is an absolute rockstar! Nikki helped us for about 3 months. I noticed a positive difference with Rogan every single day after Nikki had spent the night. He was calm and super happy, and stuck to his schedule the next day! Nikki always came on time (or early) and stayed until she was sure he was settled. I was originally extremely nervous to have someone help us sleep train Rogan. Nikki's obvious care and love eased every worry, and I actually slept through the night. I can't say enough good things!!

Hello, I am a certified Postpartum Doula living in West LA with my husband and two children. We are a British family and we moved over here from London in 2019. We have since created a wonderful new life for ourselves in the LA sunshine. Since becoming a mother myself, I’ve realized I have a nurturing spirit inside me. My goal, as a certified postpartum doula, is to support and educate families through their transition into the 4th trimester, by providing a safe, and empowering space to heal and connect with their new baby.

Recent review

I honestly don’t know how I would’ve survived those first six weeks without Kate. From day one, she felt like a trusted friend who just happened to be an absolute baby genius. Every morning she’d arrive with that sunshine-in-her-smile energy, ready to tackle my ever-growing laundry pile and whip up the most comforting meals I could dream of—everything from protein-packed breakfasts to those cozy soups that warmed me to my bones. But the best part? Watching her with my baby. She somehow knew exactly how to soothe my little one’s hiccups and fussy spells—rocking, swaddling, gentle shushing—like she’d been a baby whisperer her whole life. And she let me take that long-overdue bath I desperately needed! Thank god. If you’re looking for someone who will hold your baby so you can breathe, who’ll nourish your body and your spirit, and who’ll make you laugh when you’re barely keeping your eyes open—Kate is your person. I’ll be forever grateful for her support, her tips, and that big heart of hers.

I have worked as a baby nurse for over 25 years and I enjoy helping new parents make the transition into parenthood, by teaching them how to care for the new addition to their family. I have the knowledge and training needed to educate new parents on how to care for their newborn by teaching them how to feed, bath and put babies down for naptime. I can help parents organize the nursery to make things more convenient and easier to handle. I am highly trained to take care of twins or even triplets, so parents with multiple newborns are not so overwhelmed and stressed. Even parents who already have children at home can use the extra help, so they have time to take care of their other children.

Helen was extremely sweet, reliable, and knowledgeable when taking care of our newborn. With her expertise and guidance, he sleeps like a champ now. We can’t thank her enough for all her help, she’s the best!

I am certified as a Full Spectrum Doula through Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings, which provided the foundation for my practice in reproductive justice and inclusive support.

Recent review

Jade was amazing doula, For someone who was alone as a teen mom, she was really inspiring and helpful throughout my pregnancy. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't know what to do or except. she brings great energy in answering questions and giving information out. Always made sure I was doing good. She would give me useful stuff to use. She was there for me while I was in labor, she made sure I was comfortable, she was also helped me relax and gave me wonderful help with breathing techniques. She also thought me how to latch my baby so he can eat.

Hey! I am Violet. I was born and raised in Humboldt County CA. I moved to Los Angeles when I was 22, over 10 years ago! I originally worked in the lighting entertainment industry but made a transition to become a doula. Lights are cool and pretty and exciting! But being a doula is fulfilling. Helping families grow and adjust to this new normal is something I am passionate about. I provide non-judgmental and honest care and information during one of your families most vulnerable times. I will not judge your parenting or birth style or choices. I will never lie to you. I am here to help. My mission is to empower new parents as they transition into parenthood. When I am done providing my services my goal is to walk away with you feeling confident, relaxed, happy with your birth, and ready to take on this new life called parenthood! Everyone deserves a doula who understands who they are, listens to what they need, and comes with an open heart and an open mind. I hope to be that doula for you! I am trying to get certified and I need your help! Not being certified does not mean I am not trained. It just means I can not accept insurance. Families who agree to helping me get certified will get the service for 50% off in exchange! Offer available to three birth families! For more information, Just ask! Currently Serving: Los Angeles County & Humboldt County!

I am a first time single mom and was worried about taking care of my daughter Emma, alone and recovering from birth at the same time. Violet helped me with both night and day shifts. Violets day shifts depended on my needs for the day. Some days she was just happy to make me lunch and do laundry for me and Emma. Some days I needed some time alone and she was there to do tummy time with Emma, put her down for naps, and sing to her. When she was on nights she was there to burp, change, and settle the baby down again after I breast fed her so I was able to sleep a little more. She always had cleaned any bottles she would use by the morning and would make us both coffee before I got up. She even gave me a slight discount knowing I didn't have a two income household witch helped me a lot in the long run.

Pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum season profoundly changed me. During my own journey, the steady presence of midwives, doulas, and compassionate birth workers made all the difference—helping me feel held, informed, and empowered during moments of deep vulnerability and growth. That experience is what guides my work today. I now offer calm, thoughtful support to birthing people and their families as they navigate pregnancy, birth, and the early weeks of parenthood. As a full-spectrum doula (birth and postpartum) and Certified Lactation Specialist, my role is to walk alongside you—listening closely, honoring your choices, and helping you feel confident and supported every step of the way. Together, we’ll create a care plan that feels aligned with you. My approach is holistic and trauma-informed, and may include birth preparation and processing, emotional and physical postpartum support, infant feeding and lactation guidance, nourishment, herbal care, and gentle self-care practices for both body and mind. Whether you’re seeking hands-on support, reassurance, education, or simply a grounding presence, I’m here to meet you where you are. It is truly a privilege to support families during this tender and transformative time, and I would be grateful to be part of your journey.
