Find Birth Doula Jobs Near San Diego, CA

My name is Kelsey, and I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my first child, due on July 3, 2026. I’m an active-duty Navy pilot with TRICARE Prime. I’m in a bit of a unique situation, as I’ll be PCS’ing from Hawaii to Point Loma at the end of April 2026, which means I’ll be transferring care mid-pregnancy. Because of this transition, I’m hoping to connect early and thoughtfully with a midwifery practice that can help make the move as smooth and supported as possible. I’m very interested in pursuing a home birth and learning about the best options for a natural first birth. In addition, my faith is very important to me, and I’m hoping for a birth experience that is not only physiologically supported but also spiritually grounded. As a Christian, I value prayer, peace, and intentionality surrounding birth, and I’m seeking a team that is comfortable supporting that kind of environment. I would love to learn more about: • Your experience with first-time home births • How you support clients transferring care mid-pregnancy • Experience working with TRICARE or military families • Your availability around early July in the Point Loma area Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I truly appreciate any information you’re able to share and look forward to connecting.

Hi! I’m currently looking for a doula. This is my second baby, and my first birth was very traumatic due to complications with my epidural, so I’m hoping to try a different approach this time. I’m specifically looking for a bilingual doula (English & Spanish) who is affiliated with Kaiser, has worked with Kaiser, or has a Kaiser provider number. Thank you so much!

Ideally I wanted a home birth but the cost was out of our budget this time around. So a Hospital birth is the plan, natural, minimal hospital interventions, and I want to have a professional there that is comfortable advocating for us during the times we want to enjoy birth. We want long golden hour, the baby to stay in the room the entire time, no bath, no pulling on the placenta, and a few other things.

Scripps memorial La Jolla is the hospital I will deliver at. Attempting vbac after short umbilical cord lead to c-section with first labor. Estimated budget is around 2k, ideally under. I would love to labor at home as much as possible and utilize natural pain management in order to to prolong the epidural as long as possible ( last time I got it at 6 centimeters).

Hospital I don’t have a budget or birth plan. But open to suggestions.

My plan is to give birth in a hospital. This is my second pregnancy and birth. For my first, i had an unmedicated birth in a hospital. I plan for my second to be similar. With my first I had my husband as my support person.
