Hello! I’m Naoko. I am a Japanese-trained midwife, birth and postpartum doula, lactation counselor, childbirth educator, and mother of four. Before moving to the United States, I worked as a midwife in Japan, supporting families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Since moving to the San Francisco Bay Area, I have continued supporting families as a doula with compassionate, evidence-based, and personalized care. My approach is centered on the person giving birth. I believe every birthing person deserves to feel heard, respected, informed, and supported in making decisions that are right for them and their family. I draw on both my medical knowledge and my personal experience raising four children to provide practical, compassionate, and individualized support. I welcome families of all backgrounds, races, cultures, gender identities, and sexual orientations, including LGBTQ+ families. I support a wide range of birth preferences and experiences, including unmedicated birth, epidural birth, induction, VBAC, and cesarean birth. I also offer childbirth education, breastfeeding and lactation guidance, prenatal yoga, and bilingual support in English and Japanese. My goal is to help each family feel confident, supported, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey.

I reached out for support because I was feeling really anxious about attempting a TOLAC. I wasn’t sure if I should go for it, but after having many honest conversations, I felt completely heard and supported. That helped me make a decision I truly felt good about. On the day of my delivery, she came right away. Her bright encouragement and Naoko’s calming presence helped me shift from fear to confidence. In the end, I had a successful VBAC, and it turned into the best birth experience I could have hoped for. I’m so grateful I chose Naoko’s support and would absolutely recommend her to anyone considering a TOLAC or VBAC.

Becoming first-time parents after 40 came with its share of excitement and anxieties, and having Thaiz by our side made all the difference. As both a newborn care specialist and postpartum doula, she brought such calm, warmth, and expertise into our home—caring for our baby with incredible gentleness while also supporting us as new parents. She answered our endless questions, helped us build confidence, and always knew whether we needed guidance, reassurance, or simply rest. Beyond her skills, what stood out most was her kindness and nurturing spirit; she felt like part of the family. We’re so grateful for her care and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any new parents.

Hello! I’m a compassionate and dedicated postpartum caregiver with over 12 years of childcare experience, including extensive hands-on experience caring for newborns, infants, and multiples. My background includes early childhood development coursework, newborn care training, and CPR and First Aid certification. These experiences have deepened my passion for supporting mothers, babies, and families as they navigate the beautiful yet often overwhelming transition into life with a newborn. My approach to postpartum care is rooted in compassion, attentiveness, and the belief that caring for a newborn also means caring for the parents. I understand how important rest, recovery, emotional support, and reassurance are during the fourth trimester. My goal is to provide a calm, nurturing, and judgment-free environment where parents feel heard, supported, and confident. Whether that means tending to your newborn while you rest, assisting with feeding routines, offering overnight support, preparing light meals, or simply providing an extra set of helping hands, I strive to make the postpartum experience as peaceful and manageable as possible. With my extensive childcare and household management experience, I offer personalized support through newborn care, sibling care, and nanny services. I help families maintain daily routines while providing age-appropriate activities, meal preparation, laundry, bottle washing and sanitizing, home organization, errands, and general household assistance. My goal is to provide a warm, dependable presence that eases the transition of welcoming a new baby, allowing parents to rest, recover, bond, and enjoy this special season with peace of mind.

We had a wonderful experience with Christina. She was patient, flexible, communicative, enthusiastic, caring, and reliable. She blended seamlessly into our family, quickly understood our schedule and routines, and was always dependable. She found creative ways to engage our daughter and made their time together fun. Our daughter really liked her and felt comfortable with her. She was also attentive and confident with our baby. We would happily recommend her!

As first-time parents, we were nervous and unsure about many aspects of caring for a newborn, but Queenie’s guidance and steady, reassuring presence made everything feel manageable from the very beginning. She provided hands-on support with newborn care, including soothing the baby, helping us understand feeding cues, and offering practical advice on daily routines and sleep. During nighttime care, Queenie was calm, attentive, and highly responsive, which allowed us to get much-needed rest while knowing our baby was in capable hands. She always took the time to explain what she was doing and why, helping us build confidence as new parents. Queenie was also very supportive during the postpartum recovery period. Her thoughtful care, emotional reassurance, and calm demeanor helped create a peaceful environment and greatly eased our anxiety. With her support, we were able to rest, recover, and feel more confident each day. We are deeply grateful for Queenie’s dedication, professionalism, and genuine compassion, and we truly feel fortunate to have had her as our doula.
