Hi! I’m Katherine! I’m a newer doula looking to gain more experience. With over four years of nanny experience, most recently caring for infants, I'm excited to expand my schedule outside my current nanny position to focus on postpartum doula work. I absolutely love being with families, nurturing babies, and supporting birthing parents. This work isn't just a job; it's where I belong. As a loving and intentional doula, my support is rooted in the understanding that welcoming a new baby is a significant transition for every family. While I enjoy music, animals, and spending time with my family, birthwork is a true passion that deeply integrates into my personal life.

Katherine is a wonderful nanny because she connects naturally with children and makes them feel safe and supported. Her patience allows her to handle any situation with calm confidence, even on the busiest days. She brings genuine understanding to every interaction, meeting kids exactly where they are. Above all, she is consistently reliable, giving families peace of mind knowing they can always count on her.

As a compassionate and experienced maternal health nurse, I bring a strong foundation of clinical knowledge along with a nurturing, intuitive approach that makes me a natural fit for postpartum doula work. I’ve spent years supporting new mothers and families through the delicate transition of the fourth trimester, offering not just medical insight but emotional reassurance, practical education, and culturally sensitive care. My background includes virtual and in home visits, helping families feel safe, seen, and empowered from the comfort of their own space. My philosophy is rooted in a holistic view of healing by honoring the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the mother and family. I believe in creating a calm, supportive environment where new parents can rest, bond, and recover while receiving personalized guidance on infant care, feeding, and postpartum wellness. I value intuitive listening, evidence informed practices, and community connection, and I’m deeply committed to walking alongside families with warmth, respect, and nonjudgmental support.

Hello, my name is Lindy Garcia, and I am a Postpartum Doula and Reproductive Health Educator. What drew me to this work is the incredible complexity of the postpartum period. It’s a time of profound hormonal changes, physical adjustments, and emotional shifts, all of which highlight the importance of community and support. I believe these elements shape the journey into parenthood in powerful ways. My approach to postpartum care starts with understanding my client’s unique hierarchy of needs. Together, we build a plan of action that honors their goals and circumstances. My priority is to help families not just survive this transition but truly thrive. I strive to create a safe, nurturing environment where families feel supported, empowered, and confident in their own choices. Providing emotional care and evidence-based information is at the heart of what I do, so my clients can make informed decisions that feel right for them. I am deeply passionate about helping families create their personal best postpartum experience—one that fosters joy, resilience, and connection. When I’m not supporting families, you can usually find me exploring local trails, relaxing at a coffee shop, or spending quality time with my own family.

Hello Parents, I decided to begin my service as a Postpartum Doula because I have a passion for the wellness of women and children. I worked before as a Youth Liasion advocating for young people who battled homelessness. In my service, I met with several clients with little ones and they lacked the necessary resources to care for their children. I noticed the emotional strain that was placed on the mothers so I would help out where I could. I love spending time with children so I made the decision to become educated. My philosophy is this: you are not alone and it is perfectly fine to not know. You have support and you deserve it. My role is to help educate your family on how to care for your newborn and also provide emotional support so you can enjoy the process. Please feel free to reach out and contact me!

I cannot speak highly enough of Eldrid's invaluable support during my postpartum recovery. After my C-section, she became an indispensable part of our household, seamlessly managing tasks that allowed me to focus on healing and bonding with my newborn. Eldrid not only cooked delicious and nutritious meals that nourished our family (by the way, she makes the BEST lactation chocolate chip cookies and tapioca pudding), but she also ensured our home was consistently tidy and organized. Her attention to detail in laundry and housekeeping meant I could rest without worry. The soothing massages she provided for my feet, shoulders, neck, and hands were incredibly therapeutic and helped relieve the tension that comes with new motherhood. Beyond the physical care, Eldrid went above and beyond by taking expert care of our baby, allowing me precious moments to nap, shower, or simply take a solo walk for much-needed self-care. Eldrid's understanding and compassionate demeanor made me feel supported and understood during those overwhelming first weeks as a new mom. I remember when I had my first experience with breast engorgement. I was terrified and texted Eldrid, and she immediately knew the fix and brought over some cabbage leaves to help manage the pain. Eldrid's dedication to both my baby's well-being and my own was evident in every interaction. She listened attentively to my concerns and offered invaluable guidance and reassurance. Her nurturing presence not only eased the transition into motherhood but also fostered a sense of confidence and empowerment in my new role. I am profoundly grateful to Eldrid for her unwavering support and expertise during a pivotal time in our lives. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine care have left an indelible mark on our family's journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Eldrid to any parent seeking compassionate and knowledgeable postpartum care. My family misses her greatly!

Hey mama, I’m Pam! I’m so glad you’re here. Being a doula brings me so much joy. It’s truly my passion and such a gift to walk alongside women through pregnancy, birth, and the early days of motherhood. I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula based in Ontario, California. With a background in women’s health and fertility support, I bring both heart and knowledge to the care I provide. My goal is to help you feel confident and at peace throughout your journey. I am here to offer steady support, guidance, and encouragement so you can trust your body, your choices, and the process, knowing you are never alone. When I’m not serving mamas, you’ll probably find me at Disney with my husband, soaking up all the magic, with the best treats.

As a first-time mom, I had no idea what to expect going into labor and delivery. I was overwhelmed with information, emotions, and fear of the unknown. Hiring Pamela as our doula turned out to be one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From our very first meeting, she radiated warmth, confidence, and compassion. She took the time to get to know me and my birth preferences without any judgment, offering gentle guidance and information to help me feel empowered and prepared. When labor began, she was right there, calm, steady, and supportive. She instinctively knew what I needed at every moment! Whether it was counter pressure during contractions, helping me breathe through a particularly intense moment, or simply whispering encouragement when I felt like giving up. She also supported my partner in ways we didn’t even realize we needed, helping him feel confident and involved rather than helpless. The birth itself was beautiful, intense, and deeply emotional. I truly believe I had the positive birth experience I hoped for because of her guidance and presence. Even after the birth, she stayed to make sure we were comfortable, and followed up with incredible postpartum care, checking in on my physical recovery, my emotional well-being, and helping us navigate those early newborn days. She wasn’t just a doula, she was an anchor, an advocate, a coach, and a friend. I honestly can’t imagine going through this journey without her by our side. Every mom deserves someone like Pamela. Someone who will hold space for your experience, empower you, and walk with you every step of the way. I’m endlessly grateful. If you’re considering hiring her, don’t hesitate! She’s truly extraordinary ❤️

hi! i was birthed into a mother 9 years ago and had an exceptional experience with a midwife & doula at a birthing center. it changed my life forever. after that, i became super passionate with educating women on their options for prenatal, labor, and postpartum. i created a guidebook for each and took a doula certification course during covid, so it was a weekend course and virtual. i still have my books to this day! i’m from a small town in south carolina where doula wasn’t widely known. i’ve helped friends along the way and am seeking to fulfill my passions in this realm here in orange county! i am a freelance artist as well specializing in many mediums. i’m so excited to meet you and provide all that i have to offer! 👩‍🍼🤰
