Hello Families! I am a full spectrum perinatal care worker specializing in lactation and postpartum doula support. I am certified as a lactation counselor from UCSD and a DONA trained Doula. I believe in providing evidence based care while integrating holistic methods that have been passed down between women for generations. I began working with women and children in 2011 as the Executive Director of The Live Well Project. From there I took my passion abroad and lived in Nepal for 6 months working with local families and learning first hand how they supported birthing mothers. In 2020 I decided to formalize my training in Lactation and then Doula work. I am a San Diego native and have two children of my own (plus a fur baby!) I would love the opportunity to connect and see how I can support you in your parenthood journey!

Welcome! I am so glad you are here. My name is Katharine Wingert and I am a birth doula serving Murrieta and Temecula Valley. As a mother of three daughters, my own transformative journey into doula work began during my first pregnancy in 2017. Having experienced three very different births with each of my daughters, I found my passion for supporting mothers deepening with each unique experience. These encounters ignited within me a profound desire to offer compassionate, personalized support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the fourth trimester. Matrescence, the journey of becoming a mother, further inspired me to embrace the role of "mothering the mother." I'm dedicated to providing unwavering support and empathy to mothers and their partners as they navigate this beautiful and transformative journey of childbirth. It's an honor to be a part of your experience, offering guidance and assistance every step of the way.

Hello everyone, my name is Grace and I am taking courses to become a postpartum doula. I am currently a lead teacher in a 12-24 month old classroom. I have also had ample experience helping in the infant room of the learning center that I am employed with.

Right now I am specifically looking to be a nanny or a night nanny based on what you may need.

I am a trauma informed birth doula, childbirth educator and certified lactation educator. I believe birth works best when you leave it alone unless there is a true medical need to intervene, and strive to help folks retain their power during this most transformative journey.

Hi, I’m Jazmine! I’m a postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, and longtime childcare professional with over 5 years of experience caring for little ones and supporting families. I’ve always loved being the person families can lean on during the big transitions of life, and postpartum is especially close to my heart. I’m naturally warm, nurturing, and easygoing, and I believe you deserve to feel cared for, heard, and supported as you find your rhythm as a new parent. I love creating a calm, cozy space where you can rest, recover, ask questions, and simply be yourself. I truly believe it takes a village, and I feel lucky to become a small part of each family’s village, often staying connected and cheering them on even after our time together ends.

I am a trained birth and postpartum doula, and have worked with families in Los Angeles and San Diego over the last 6 years providing meal services, Bengkung belly binding, birth and postpartum services.

I am blessed to live in sunny San Diego, CA. I do call myself a midwest gal though, and grew up in various states. I graduated High School in Illinois and went to college in Indiana. My husband and I moved to San Diego in 2013 and never looked back. Our son was born in 2023, so we are currently navigating toddler-hood and all the joys that come with it. I also love dogs, and we lost our very beloved Pug in 2026. I have worked in corporate HR for 10+ years and believe the career transition to being a postpartum doula is exactly what the universe had planned for me. Outside of work (which no longer feels like "work") I love to be outside as much as possible - at parks, beaches, going on long walks, and finding any family friendly events going on around the city. I also love to cook and experiment with new recipes. My family loves to try new restaurants and travel. In a nutshell, we like to do anything and everything that feels like an adventure. I am also fluent in Spanish and hope to be a resource to bilingual families!

My mission is to support and empower women and their partners throughout pregnancy and during the labor process as they transition into motherhood. I serve all of San Diego and the surrounding areas and provide support at home births, hospital births, and birthing center births. My commitment to my clients is to provide you with advocacy and support for whatever you decide your birthing experience should be. I have supported all types of birth experiences, including unmedicated births, epidural births, C Sections, VBACs, gestational diabetes, placenta previa, “geriatric” pregnancies, teen births, and many more. From our first encounter, I strive to make you feel safe, supported, encouraged, and listened to.

Hi mama! I’m a birth doula who provides in person and virtual support and childbirth education. I have a deep passion for all things home birth. I’m honored to be here to get to hold space for you and your birth.

I’ve been a labor and delivery nurse for the past 11 years and have assisted over 1600 births. I’ve worked at three top hospitals including Cedar Sinai in Beverly Hills, Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach, and Scripps hospital, La Jolla. I am a RNC-OB, registered nurse certified in obstetrics as well as a lactation education counselor. I’ve taught labor and delivery at the university level and find teaching very rewarding. Education is at the heart of women’s empowerment. At Rising Lotus Birth, I provide support to pregnant women throughout all phases of care including prenatal visits, birth doula services, and postpartum visits. You may be wondering why I became a doula while still practicing in the hospital setting. My explanation is always that over the years I’ve noticed an overwhelming need for more patient advocacy, education, and birth support in order to achieve better birth outcomes. Birth is my passion. My goal is to help you achieve a better birth and postpartum experience!
