Hi there! I'm Maria Woods, originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and I've been calling San Diego home for the past 8 years. I'm a proud mother of two girls, and being compassionate and loving is just part of who I am. I'm here to lend a helping hand to both of you and your precious newborn. Welcome to the world of doula care!

My journey to becoming a mother was not easy. I had two very different and difficult births that taught me a lot about myself and the challenges of childbirth. My first birth was a long and exhausting labor that ended in an emergency cesarean. I felt scared, helpless, and disappointed that I couldn’t have the natural birth I wanted. My second birth was a planned cesarian, I felt unprepared, anxious, and overwhelmed by the intensity of the experience and felt guilty for not trying to deliver naturally. Both of my births left me feeling traumatized and in need of healing. ​ These experiences made me realize that there is a gap in the traditional healthcare system when it comes to supporting mothers during birth. I felt that I didn’t get enough information, education, or emotional support from my providers, and that I had to advocate for myself and my baby. I decided to become a doula to fill that gap and to help other mothers have a better birth experience. As a doula, I offer personalized and continuous support to mothers before, during, and after birth. I help them prepare for their birth, cope with their pain, communicate with their providers, and celebrate their achievements. I want every mother to feel empowered, respected, and joyful during their birth.

I began this journey while working at the CDC, hoping that birthing room experience would inform my long-term goal of helping improve maternal health outcomes for all families.

I have had the privilege of supporting over 40 births, including unmedicated, medicated, and cesarean deliveries. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• If you are expecting and looking for emotional support, physical comfort, an informed advocate in the birthing room, or a calm and warm presence to help guide you through labor, I would be honored to be part of your birth team.

Azure is a Southern California native with a deep commitment to supporting women and families through pregnancy and birth. Motivated by her belief in the blessing of every new life, she began her academic journey at UCLA with plans to become an OB/GYN. After graduation, she volunteered in labor and delivery units and worked in medical offices, where she gained valuable experience while also recognizing gaps in care — particularly for Black women. That realization led her to become a doula, where she supported her very first client through a successful vaginal birth after three cesareans. This experience deepened her commitment to advocacy and highlighted the need for care models that offer more informed and personalized support. Seeking to expand her knowledge and scope of care, Azure pursued midwifery. She is currently a third year student midwife at the National Midwifery Institute. She is committed to providing compassionate, informed, and culturally grounded care, and views birth as a transformative experience that deserves respect, intention, and support. Azure is especially passionate about honoring ancestral traditions in birth work, studying botanical medicine, and improving maternal health outcomes within her community. Outside of her studies, she mentors foster youth through Promises2Kids’ Guardian Scholars program. She also enjoys spending time with family, recharging at the beach, reading, and hiking.

Hello, I’m Ariel Luna! I’m a birth and postpartum doula with nine years of experience and a genuine passion for supporting families through one of life’s most meaningful transitions. My journey in birth work began with a deep appreciation for the strength of women, the transformation of parenthood, and the importance of feeling supported during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum experience. Over the past nine years, I’ve had the privilege of working with families throughout San Diego, California, supporting a diverse range of family structures, backgrounds, cultures, and parenting journeys. In October 2026, I relocated to Dallas, Texas, and am excited to bring my experience and passion for family-centered care to the Dallas community. I believe birth and postpartum care should never be one-size-fits-all. Every family deserves to feel heard, respected, informed, and supported without judgment. My approach is nurturing, trauma-informed, and grounded in meeting families where they are while honoring their individual preferences, values, and goals. As a doula, I value both the practical and emotional aspects of care. Sometimes support looks like helping a mother navigate labor with confidence, offering comfort and reassurance, or helping a partner feel more involved. Other times, it means caring for a newborn while parents rest, providing feeding guidance, preparing a nourishing meal, or simply creating space for a mother to recover and feel cared for. I offer in-person birth and daytime postpartum support throughout Dallas and surrounding communities, as well as virtual doula services nationwide. Virtual support allows me to connect with families anywhere in the country through personalized consultations, birth preparation, labor guidance, newborn education, feeding support, and ongoing postpartum check-ins. My additional offerings include prenatal and postnatal yoga and traditional Bengkung belly binding. I’m Carrot-approved and have experience working with Maven and Qualcomm family benefits, along with Loula insurance-based services for eligible California families. I also welcome qualifying FSA/HSA payments. Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating your first weeks with a newborn, or looking for continued guidance and reassurance, my goal is to make sure you feel supported, empowered, and cared for throughout your journey. I’m grateful to continue this work in Dallas and look forward to connecting with families locally and nationwide. With warmth, Ariel Luna Birth & Postpartum Doula

My name is Val, and I have over two decades as a birth doula in San Diego, California. I have a health care background and value this aspect of bringing my experience to all the births I support. My philosophy for birth, is to remember that a woman will always remember how she was spoken to, and treated on the day of her giving birth. I love this work, it is a calling and truly an honor to be invited to a birth. I had a mom tell me one time, while she was searching for a doula, after asking her sister who had used a doula for her second birth, responded with the following: "Using a doula is the difference of flying first class compared to coach!" This mom went on to have a fantastic experience.
