My name is Cindy Lelea and I'm a DONA certified Postpartum Doula serving the South Bay cities of Los Angeles County. I serve with an open heart and hands to help families through the joyful but challenging postpartum period with their newborn. I feel honored to gain the trust of families during such a momentous yet vulnerable time in their lives as I serve and support them in their home with guidance on newborn care, breastfeeding tips and support, emotional support, homemade meal prep , practical help with laundry, general tidying up and errands, and more, all while respecting the families space and privacy. As a mother of five grown children, I know firsthand how overwhelming those early days can be, and I'm passionate about creating a nurturing environment where parents feel truly seen and supported. Whether it's through offering emotional guidance, helping establish routines, or simply being an extras set of hands, I'm here to make the transition to parenthood smoother, more joyful, and filled with the support every family deserves. During my free time I love to sing and record songs, spend time with my husband and my family, chat with my sisters over the phone, and most importantly, pray and connect with God.

Hi! I'm Nina and I am the founder of The Soulful Birth ~ a place to honor a birthing person's Journey into parenthood. I am an experienced birth doula, lactation educator, HypnoBirthing Educator, Prenatal Yoga teacher and reiki/energry healer.

I am a Perinatal Care Specialist — my job is to hold space for people as they navigate reproductive health and perinatal care by providing emotional support, physical comfort, practical assistance, and non-medical care. What that may look like depends on each client's individual needs and situation. I am passionate about education and love to not only learn new things myself, but also pass on my accumulated knowledge to others. I strongly believe that knowledge is power, and support my clients in navigating the healthcare field knowing their options and alternatives so they are better able to advocate for themselves, their bodies, their families, and their choices. I started my journey in the healthcare field in 2010 when I began training as a Massage Therapist in NYC. Since then I have become a New York State Licensed Massage Therapist, NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, and since moving to LA in 2017, I have turned my focus more specifically to equity for marginalized people in health and wellness. I am now a DONA International Certified Doula, California Certified Massage Therapist, a Reiki Master, Yoga Instructor, trained in the use of Essential Oils for Birth and Postpartum, and most recently became a Certified Facilitator of The Resilience Toolkit.

I’m a wife and mom and I’ve been a photographer for 20+ years. Photographing newborns and families as they grow is truly my happy place. I feel that all my life experience has led me to this work and it’s incredibly satisfying. I am passionate about capturing those moments before they fly by. Because they go by so quickly! As a mother of 3 I totally get it. Family life is busy and we need things to be as low key and efficient as possible. I try to make your time in front of my camera LOW STRESS - and hopefully we can have some fun along the way! I like to let the siblings enjoy themselves and feel included in this special time. I like to get the newbies all milk drunk and sleepy so we can stare at them in awe. Mostly, I like to get everyone - young and old - to connect and laugh and remember the real reasons we get up and do this thing called life. I have photographed hundreds of growing families and it never once gets old. I’ll never lose the awe and the wonder at this beautiful... and sometimes difficult... and definitely transformational journey of self discovery that is parenthood.

Hello everyone, my name is Cristian Amaro. All the facets of birth are my joy and passion, and I'm always curious to learn more.

I believe that it is a huge step to trust in yourself and body in order to bring your baby earth side. You step into another mind-space and you have to allow yourself to walk through the toughest moment of your life. You may forget all of the preparations you been learning, and only do one thing the entire time, but guess what, you did it. You did what felt right for you in every step of the way. You control what you need and only you will know what’s best for you. Hi, I’m Daisy and I am the birthkeeper that supports every decision you want to make, and it sounds cliché but it’s true. My opinion doesn’t matter when it comes to your decision making, only the suggestions and knowledge behind what options you have and the choice you want to make. I’m here for you.

Hi, I’m Myla. Im a licensed massage therapist, birth doula, and founder of Maternal Genesis. My passion for birth work was born from a deep calling to nurture, empower, and support women

Growing up, I had a very special relationship with my own babysitter who I looked up to. She became my first influence unknowingly to being in childcare. I try to carry her loving, thoughtful influence into my work as a nanny and newborn care specialist. I love working with children because they are so full of amazing energy and such a joy to be around. I learn a lot from them, like how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to be present in the moment. I have been working with children for seventeen years from the newborns to school age, but specialize in newborn/infant and toddler care.

Hi I'm Ebony, registered nurse, holistic doula, lactation education specialist, maternal mental health peer support specialist, and future nutrition health coach. AKA... all the the things to help your toward a journey of health and wellness. But most importantly I am a lover of life and I help you heal your body, conceive naturally and birth with dignity. I work alongside moms and birthing persons who want a different outcome. I take a holistic and mindful approach to fertility, birth and wellness. You know your body better than anyone, and you know what’s best. So, I partner with you to explore all the options (even ones you don't think you want) to craft a more positive birth experience.

Hey there! My name is Nikki and I'm so excited to support you and your family during this transitional time! Caring for families during the most exciting but also most vulnerable and scary time in their lives is my passion and calling. I particularly take interest in helping LGBTQIA+ families, neurodivergent parents, and parenting after infertility. My job is to leave a family feeling better than when I arrived by providing emotional and physical support, education, information, and resources.

I’m a Los Angeles-based birth doula — also a wife, mother and dog-parent. My mission as a doula is to support & empower each client as they prepare for birth, guided by intuition, self-awareness, comfort + evidence-based knowledge. I trained at Bini Birth in 2022, and have spent the years since deepening my learning and preparing to support all types of births — including through my own birth prep (baby Elie joined us in 2024!). My path to this work likely began when I was 8 years old, attending the births of my nieces — though I didn’t know it then. Knowing now about the impact of doula-care, I’m so grateful for the opportunity to nurture my clients in their big threshold moments. When I’m not obsessing over the miracles of pregnancy and birth, I’m working on projects related to community, ritual, rites of passage and belonging — drawing on ancient wisdom as an antidote to modern loneliness (@OneTable). I’m passionate about helping my clients define and realize their intentions around birth, weaving that intention into the preparation process so they can approach their birth experience with clarity, confidence, and a real sense of empowerment.
