Night Nannies & Night Nurses Near Me in San Francisco, CA

I am a CAPPA-trained Postpartum Doula serving families in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am passionate about women’s health, the postpartum period, and helping new parents navigate the transformative journey of welcoming a newborn. My approach is grounded in empathy, warmth, and respect for every family’s unique journey. I strive to provide personalized care, offering evidence-based guidance, hands-on support, and a calm presence when needed. Using intuition, clear communication, and active listening, I balance taking the initiative with stepping back and following your lead. My goal is to help you feel confident, cared for, and empowered as you navigate early parenthood.

I have been a career nanny in San Francisco for 13 years , I have worked steadily for two families that entire time. Since all 4 kids I have helped raise ( two sets of twins) are all now in school, Doula work seemed like a perfect transition. Last year I got my Postpartum Doula license and this year I have been working on my Lactation Consult Certificate. I try very hard to stay current on all pediatric reccomendations for infant care, I am fully vaccinated , current on infant CPR training and I have pristine reccomendations. I feel as if I have been taking care of babies my whole life first, as an aunt, then mama and now I am loving life as a young and energetic Grammy. I get so much satisfaction helping new parents transition succesfully into their new roles as parents. I have had the privilege of helping my daughter for a month postpartum with both of her births, as my mom helped me. It is an honor when I get to step into that role for parents without access to family. Thank you for your consideration, Julia

Good Evening Everyone, my name is Uheina Tonga. I am a certified postpartum doula, and an infant specialist/night nanny. I grew up in the Bay Area, and specifically San Mateo, but I live in Brisbane now. I have been an infant specialist/ night nanny for 20 years, and before I raised five children of my own. My favorite thing about caring for the newborn is when they come home from the hospital, and I am ready to care for them while mom is trying to get some rest. This gives me a sense of great accomplishment when I can able to earn your trust and help you get the rest you need each night. I have cared for over 100 babies in the course of 20 years. I've gained many experiences in caring for babies, but different and unique in their own way. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, whether its going on a trip to the coast, or making dinner together, or just hanging around and play board games. It is creating memories and it is sort of the same way when I come into your home and care for the baby. It is a beginning of creating memories for baby and your family!

My name is Krystal Brisette Vélez-Gómez-Edwards and I am of Indigenous-Mexicana and Nicaragüense descent. I am open to supporting all births of all beliefs and practices. I am passionate about my own cultural work and practicing as a traditional, Mexican doula, acknowledging birth as ceremony. My first career path was in nursing until I discovered my dismay with Western medicine and healthcare. Years later I experienced the birth of my son, Michael, who is now 16. I was 21 and had no support outside of my marriage, I had no clue what I was doing and I didn't know what I didn't know. I ate awfully and gained at least 70 pounds. When my water broke and I was admitted to the hospital, I was soon told I would need a cesarean due to my son going into "distress." I planned to have a natural birth, but here I was receiving an epidural (fentanyl!) and being cut open and tugged at from within. I was so detached from my own body. My baby was taken from the room and I didn't have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits and pleasure of skin-to-skin bonding, our 'golden hour' to breastfeed peacefully. I suffered from postpartum depression and learned to bury and forget the experience because I figured that's just how it was. It wasn't until years later that it came up for me and was a catalyst for many positive changes in my life. I was a few years into healing work with indigenous medicines and in one of my own ceremonies, I received a calling to bring ceremony back to birth, along with visions of burying a placenta at a sacred tree. I began researching traditional Mexican birth work to discover that this was in fact an indigenous tradition. I dedicated myself to the journey of birth work. I obtained training in many facets of holistic birth work and traditional, Mexican birth work, including herbalism to support birth and postpartum, womb healing, rebozo work, techniques for comfort and pain management as well as repositioning breech babies, lactation support, craniosacral therapy, cerrada de caderas (traditional closing ceremony), and the list continues to grow. I have been studying safe use of psychedelics during pregnancy and birth. As a traditional, certified holistic birth and postpartum doula, my primary role is to provide emotional, physical, and informational support to you during pregnancy, labor, childbirth, and beyond. I believe birth work is sacred and magical. Most importantly, I'm passionate about incorporating traditional practices into my work, which means I can also draw on indigenous knowledge and rituals to enhance and support your desired birthing experience. Together, we'll navigate this journey, ensuring you feel empowered and well-supported throughout.
