Hello everyone, I'm a Birth and Postpartum Doula, as well as a Childbirth Educator. I absolutely love all things birth and baby, but my passion is in helping families adjust to the new changes that a baby brings. I truly believe that everyone should have the support that they need going into pregnancy, birth and postpartum. It's a rollercoaster of a time, with a million questions that come with it. My goal is to have the families I work with, feel informed and empowered during such a pivotal moment in their lives. I got interested in doula work before becoming a mom myself. Now as a mom, that interest has only been strengthened. I talk to so many parents who would've done things differently or wish they had known something back then that could've made their lives that much easier. with a newborn. My goal is to get the answers to my families that they need, whether that be from my own knowledge and expertise or connecting them to the right resources who can help them.

Cheryl was a fantastic doula! She is compassionate, understanding and knowledgeable. When the time came for us to go to the hospital and deliver our baby, Cheryl arrived engaged and fully prepared. Cheryl's personality is very warm and kind, it makes her a wonderful ally as you go through the process of giving birth. I fully recommended her.

Recent review

My husband and I hired Jill after going back and forth on whether we even wanted/needed a doula and are so happy we did! From the moment we got pregnant, we knew that we were hospital birth people. Though friends and family had suggested a doula, those friends and family were the home birth / bathtub birth, free spirited, yogi types and nothing at all like us in terms of lifestyle or beliefs. We thought do we really need to spend the extra money? Would a doula would be too hippy-dippy for us? We interviewed four or five different doulas in the area and decided we’d give it a go and that Jill best fit our vibe. She was all about empowering us and not the least bit judgmental of our desire to have an OB, birth in a hospital, and leave the epidural on the table as a possibility. All in all, with Jill’s help we ended up having the unmedicated vaginal birth I desperately wanted but was too afraid to outright commit to from the outset. And if there’s anything I can say to those on the fence about a doula because of the cost, it makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE on delivery day. For us, that doula was Jill. She provided the physical and mental support my partner and I would have otherwise never even known we were missing (massage, position changes, words of encouragement, you name it!), and was 100% the reason we were able to have the unforgettable experience we did! We wish everyone could have a Jill with them on delivery day!!

Hi there! I’m Jalisa Burton, co-founder of Divine Birthing Services and a proud Full Spectrum Doula and Certified Effective Black Parenting Educator. Supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond is more than what I do — it’s who I am. For me, this work is a divine calling, one that allows me to help parents feel safe, respected, and deeply supported during one of life’s most powerful journeys.

As a dedicated and experienced childcare professional, I’ve had the privilege of supporting high-net-worth families with everything from newborn care to managing entire household operations. My passion lies in creating a calm, nurturing environment where both babies and parents feel secure, especially during the vulnerable newborn stage. With years of overnight care experience, I bring a soothing, intuitive approach to infant sleep routines, feeding schedules, and nighttime transitions ensuring the baby is well cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I believe that trust, consistency, and communication are at the heart of excellent care. Families have relied on me not only for my hands on skills with infants and children including those with special needs but also for my discretion, professionalism, and ability to seamlessly support their unique lifestyle. I would be honored to bring that same level of warmth and reliability to your family during this special season.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Niomi care for our two children from ages 5-2 Her patience seemed endless, and she always treated our kids with such love and genuine care. It was clear she wasn't just watching them, but truly invested in their well-being and happiness. Beyond the basics, Niomi always went the extra mile. She planned engaging activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor games, that kept our children entertained and helped them learn. Meal times were always healthy and fun, and she was great at handling the usual kid-related messes and tantrums with grace and humor. Knowing our kids were in such capable and loving hands gave us immense peace of mind. Niomi is more than just a nanny; she became a part of our family, and we highly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional childcare.

I am a birth doula and childbirth mentor/educator located in Orange County, CA. The primary focus of my work is to improve birth outcomes for marginalized communities and to reduce (ideally eradicate) birth trauma. My training is mostly through an organization called Birthing From Within and I highly recommend their reading materials for individuals at any stage, from pre-conception to postpartum. My philosophy is that you, the pregnant person, have all of the wisdom and ability within you and we can work together to awaken that within you.

Lindzy is just amazing! I highly recommend her services. She is well educated, informed on all birthing questions I had. Her expertise, advice, referrals, and support around all things pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum were so helpful and such a comfort as a first time mom. She is down to earth and easy to talk to, and she valued our birth plan. She was my advocate and a huge help in the delivery room, we are so grateful to have hired her, even in though I was late in my pregnancy. If we have another she will be the first one i'll call!
