Hi, I’m Tanya — a home birth midwife based in Winchester, California, serving families throughout Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego Counties. I’m a mother of two and have been married for 25 years, and I bring that same steady, grounded care into the way I support growing families. I believe birth works best when you feel safe, seen, and truly listened to. My role is to help you create the home birth you’ve been imagining, while keeping safety at the center of everything we do. This is your body, your baby, and your story. I walk beside you with calm guidance, clear information, and experienced hands—so you feel confident and never alone in your choices. Together we’ll create a plan that honors your values, your culture, and what feels right in your home. My care is evidence-based and community-rooted. I keep a close eye on your health and your baby’s wellbeing, and I make sure you understand your options every step of the way. My hope is that you feel informed, respected, and deeply supported throughout pregnancy, birth, and those first tender days postpartum.

2 days before I met Tayna I felt so hopeless in my breastfeeding journey. Thankfully I found her and that she took insurance. So, I set up an appointment, I can’t express just how much help and support she provided. After the first day with her I was back to breastfeeding and by my next appointment with her I gained my confidence back. Thank you so much Tayna, you have no idea the impact you made for me and my family❤️ also to mention she makes house calls which are so helpful those first few days postpartum.

Hello! My name is Lindsey am a Certified Postpartum Doula located in Huntington Beach CA. I am also a Lactation Educator and Infant Nanny. I am married and a mother of two teenage boys . I love animals and reading. My passion is mothering the mother during the postpartum time through nutrition, care, and non judgmental emotional support.

We are so grateful to have had Lindsey as our night nanny during the first six weeks postpartum. Bringing home a newborn can feel overwhelming, but Lindsey gave us such a sense of calm and confidence from the very beginning. She was incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and knowledgeable, which made it so much easier for us to rest knowing our baby was in such capable hands overnight. One of the things we appreciated most was her support with breastfeeding. Lindsey was patient, encouraging, and full of practical advice that helped make the process far less stressful during those early weeks. Her guidance and reassurance were invaluable, especially during the middle-of-the-night feedings when emotions and exhaustion can run high. Beyond her expertise, Lindsey was warm, kind, and truly cared about both our baby and our wellbeing as new parents. She made such a positive impact on our postpartum experience, and we honestly can’t imagine those first weeks without her support. We would wholeheartedly recommend Lindsey to any family looking for an exceptional doula or night nanny.

With 15 years of experience as a dedicated doula, I’ve had the honor of supporting countless families through the transformative journey of birth and early parenthood. As a proud mom of six, I bring a deep, personal understanding of the joys and challenges that come with welcoming a new baby. My hands-on experience, combined with years of professional support, has shaped me into a trusted newborn expert—offering compassionate, practical guidance to help parents feel confident and cared for during this sacred season of life.

Hiring Abigail Smith as our postpartum night doula was, without question, the best decision we made as new parents. From the very first night she walked into our home, she brought with her a sense of calm, warmth, and deep compassion that changed our entire experience of early parenthood. She didn’t just care for our baby — she loved our baby. And she didn’t just support me — she held me, emotionally and spiritually, through some of the most tender, vulnerable nights of my life. In every moment, she was present. Gentle. Wise. Unshakably grounded. Each night, Abigail created a peaceful, nurturing environment for our little one to thrive and for me to heal. She knew exactly what we needed before we did — whether it was expert swaddling, lactation guidance, a warm cup of tea, a reassuring word, or simply space to sleep without worry. Her intuition is unmatched, and her professionalism is seamless. But more than all of that, Abby loved us. That love showed up in every tiny detail — in the way she soothed our baby back to sleep, in how she respected our rhythms and choices, and in how she always, always made me feel seen, safe, and never alone. She became part of our family. Letting her go at the end of our time together was genuinely one of the hardest goodbyes we’ve ever said — that’s how much of an impact she had on our lives. If you're lucky enough to welcome Abby into your postpartum journey, know this: you are in the presence of someone truly extraordinary. She is not just a doula. She is a healer, a nurturer, and a quiet, powerful presence who will carry you through the night with love.

Hi Families! My name is Karla Aguilar, and I’m a Postpartum Doula, Newborn Care Specialist, proud mom to a sweet 9 year old and 1x Gestational surrogate. My passion has always been rooted in childcare, beginning my career as an early childhood educator with a certificate in Child Development and Early Childhood Education from Cerritos College. With years of experience in daycare centers, public schools, and private homes, my heart has always been drawn to newborn and postpartum care. Becoming a young mother and navigating postpartum with limited support opened my eyes to the gap in care during this beautiful yet vulnerable stage, inspiring me to provide the support I once needed myself. In 2026, my passion for family building led me to become a gestational surrogate, giving me the incredible opportunity to experience pregnancy, labor, and postpartum recovery for a second time. Having recently gone through postpartum myself, including pumping, Labor, OBYGN appointments I bring even more firsthand knowledge, understanding, and compassion to the families I support. I truly believe it takes a village to bring little ones into this world, and I’m honored to be part of yours, providing warm, nurturing, and professional care to your family.

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Karla. She is an extraordinary person who consistently goes above and beyond, and the warmth, compassion, and genuine love she has shown our newborn son have meant the world to our family. As first-time parents, the idea of leaving our newborn in someone else’s care was understandably a little intimidating. But from the moment we interviewed Karla, she gave us absolutely no reason to hesitate. Her professionalism, experience, and incredibly warm personality immediately put us at ease. We felt safe and confident knowing our little guy was in such capable and loving hands. What makes Karla so special is that she doesn’t simply show up and do her job. She genuinely cares. She has surprised us time and time again with her thoughtfulness, her willingness to go above and beyond, and the attention she gives to every little detail. She always made sure we knew how our son was doing throughout the night, giving us tremendous peace of mind and allowing us to actually relax and get some much-needed rest. Her passion for what she does is apparent the moment she walks through your door. There is something incredibly special about welcoming someone into your home who treats your child with the same tenderness and affection you would. Karla has a way of making herself feel like an extension of your family, and I think that speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. I’ve never felt compelled to write a Google review until now. And the reason I’m writing this one is simple: I believe so strongly in the work Karla does, the care she provides, and her extraordinary ability to deliver on the trust that families place in her. When someone makes this meaningful a difference in your family’s life, it deserves to be recognized. I’ve already recommended her to one of my closest friends, and I would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for exceptional newborn care. Having Karla in your home is truly a gift, especially during those early months when everything is so new and overwhelming. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her, and we’re looking forward to continuing to work with her as our little guy grows over the coming months and years. She is simply wonderful, and any family would be lucky to have her.
