Hi! I'm Aive, a caring postpartum doula with 5 years of experience in childcare, and a parent of two kids. My passion for postpartum doula care began after having my own kids as well as support family friends taking care of their newborn, all these experiences made me excited and feel so happy being around kids. I feel so blessed when I am part of kids' lives in different ways, such as feeding, changing diapers, soothing them to sleep, and everything concerning kids, as it brings me immense happiness. As a postpartum doula, my role is to provide the family with emotional, physical, and informational support as they adjust to a new life with a newborn. I am a committed, loving, and caring postpartum doula, while creating a nurturing environment to support the family's needs and preferences.

Maternal Wellness has been a Doula and Breastfeeding Support Organization since 2015.

When Doula Support was overlooked; Maternal Wellness continued supporting families and continued its advocacy on the importance of families needing support throughout Pregnancy and Postpartum. Maternal Wellness is an organization tailored to maternal-infant support giving you high quality and valuable services. We have experienced professional Doula’s and Breastfeeding experts who provide continuous physical, educational, emotional and informational support to families before, during and after childbirth to help them achieve the most satisfying experience possible.

Hi there! My name is Lindsey! I'm a Birth Doula, mom of a beautiful 13 month old baby boy, married to my best friend and was born and raised in the Bay Area! I have always had an immense level of respect and awe for birth, but it was really through my own pregnancy and natural, unmedicated and intervention free birth that a passion was ignited for serving women through this life-changing event. So many women lack the support they need to feel confident in the power they hold when they bring their babies into this world. My hope is that I can provide that support to you and help you achieve a positive birth experience. My goal for my clients is that you go into your birth feeling confident, empowered, educated, and in charge. I care that you've had a chance to access all of the information, have had time to ask questions, have had time to come to an answer and can give TRULY informed consent to any procedure. I also just really want to have a good time with you during one of the most incredible seasons of life. I'm so happy to meet you!

I am becoming a postpartum doula because I want to nurture and support families during such a tender and life-changing time. I believe parents deserve just as much care as their newborns, and my goal is to provide comfort, reassurance, and a helping hand as they heal and adjust. I especially want to be there for first-time parents and families without strong support systems, offering not only guidance but also a calm presence they can lean on. In the next five years, I see myself fully certified and running my own practice, creating a safe and welcoming space for families to feel cared for and understood. Beyond birth work, I enjoy cooking and reading, both of which inspire me to bring warmth, creativity, and patience into my life and the way I support others. Becoming a doula feels like a natural extension of who I am someone who values community, healing, and the simple comforts that help people feel at home.

As a night postpartum doula, my approach centers on responsive care and fostering secure attachments. With over 8 years of professional childcare experience, I bring a unique blend of warmth, expertise, and a deep understanding of family dynamics to every home I support. My journey began in a bustling diverse household (Filipina immigrant mama & American dad with Chinese, European, and Spanish roots) as the third eldest of eight, where I naturally became my mother’s helper. This early immersion in childcare instilled in me a profound comfort around infants and children. Today, I draw on this foundation to provide families with compassionate, responsive care that prioritizes the emotional and physical well-being of both parents and babies. I believe that by responding promptly and sensitively to a baby's needs, we lay the groundwork for secure attachments, fostering a nurturing environment where both babies and parents can thrive.

Hi, I'm a certified postpartum night dolus since 2021. I'm a mother of a set of twins, one girl & boy. While caring for my two infants I gained so much experience. From colic, preemie stage and the dreadful silent reflux as well as toggling tandem feeding and all fun stuff, I found my passion for the infant stage. Since then, I've been working with families guiding them through the most precious few months home with their growing family and looking to help more Parents in the Northern California area. I specialize in overnight care so new parents can rest, allowing them to be more present during the day. Resting, recovering and waking up knowing your baby was in experienced, nurturing hands. Teaching new parents all the tips and secret tricks to set your newborn up for a solid nighttime routine. I enjoy helping families establish a soiled night schedule, making the days enjoyable and memorable.
