Agustina Cerrutti

Hi, I’m Agustina — a mother, nurse, and doula with a deep love for walking alongside families in their birthing journeys. I come from another country and now feel grateful to serve my new community, offering support in both English and Spanish so more families can feel seen and cared for. My own path began with the birth of my daughter, an experience that opened my heart and inspired me to dedicate my life to this work. Birth showed me the strength, vulnerability, and beauty of bringing life into the world — and I knew I wanted to hold space for others in that sacred moment. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll often find me at the farmers market with my daughter, listening to holistic health podcasts, or walking along the beach. These simple joys keep me grounded and connected, just as I strive to help the families I serve feel rooted and cared for. With years of nursing experience and as a student midwife, I bring both knowledge and a gentle presence. My care is rooted in listening, nurturing, and honoring the whole person — body, mind, and spirit. As your doula, my promise is to center you. I’ll walk beside you with compassion, respect, and love, so you feel supported, empowered, and held every step of the way.

As a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, my passion lies in providing unwavering support during one of life’s most transformative moments—the journey into parenthood. I genuinely love being there for families, offering guidance, encouragement, and a listening ear. Each birth and postpartum experience is unique, and I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where parents can feel empowered and confident in their choices. My easy-going nature allows me to adapt to the dynamic needs of each family, whether it’s through soothing discomfort, offering practical advice, or just being a calming presence. I firmly believe that emotional and physical support during this incredible time is invaluable, and I am dedicated to helping families navigate the challenges and joys of bringing a new life into the world. It is incredibly rewarding to witness the strength and resilience of parents as they embrace their new roles, and I feel honored to be a part of their journey

Brittany was our postpartum doula! we cannot thank her enough for the support she gave during the beginning stages with our baby. She genuinely cared for our family and is so trustworthy and reliable. I was struggling with breastfeeding and she helped get my baby to latch properly as well as had amazing tips to increase my supply! Thank you so much for everything you did for our family!

Kelli was my doula's backup and she came to me when I was in labor and even though I had never met her before, I instantly felt safe and supported emotionally and physically by her presence. Intuitively I knew I could trust her because she so quickly attuned to my needs and my state of mind and cared for my entire family, it was just magical. I was so very thankful for her presence and I think God knew I needed her so he made sure she was the one available for me. She is an excellent doula and I can't recommend her enough!

As a doula and childbirth educator with over 20 years of experience, I have come to learn that compassionate support is the most important thing I bring to birth. Close to 1000 births matters. Having taught 1000s of couples in childbirth classes matters. But mostly what matters is that the person giving birth feels respected, listened to and supported by someone who is thinking about all possible options for you in an objective way. I believe in freedom of choice based on knowledge of the alternatives. I aim to increase confidence and decrease fear. And in the end, I want you to feel like you have had a compassionate, knowledgeable companion dedicated to helping you navigate this this major life transition that we call birth.
