I’m a certified Postpartum Doula, Certified Postpartum Nutritional Professional, Sleep Consultant and Lactation supporter. I’ve been working with families in the Bay Area for over 37 years and I absolutely love being part of this new phase of bringing a brand new baby home, weather this baby is your biological or adopted.

I offer physical and emotional postpartum support and newborn care during the tender early weeks after birth. I take postpartum recovery very seriously. Listening without judgment and accommodating your needs is huge part of my role. I teach and also learn together during my journey with each client.
Rosangela was a night doula for my two daughters. She took care of them for almost 3 months each. Rosangela has a gentle motherly nature that is soothing and helpful for me as a first time mom and during the transition from 1 to 2. She is extremely knowledgeable on newborn sleep schedules, milestones, breastfeeding and nursing. Rosangela took detailed notes of wake window, sleep durations, feeding times and diaper changes. She helps us establish a schedule and night time routine. Rosangela would point out things to our attention before our pediatrician did. Rosangela shares her experience while also giving room for us to make our own judgement and decisions as the parents. I am so glad I invested in her support during those tender and trying days.
