Find a Sleep Coach Near Me in Vacaville, CA

Hi everyone! I’m Laura Cechinato, a CAPPA Certified Newborn Care Specialist and Advanced Postpartum Doula based in Mill Valley, California. I’ve spent the past 10 years caring for babies and young children, and over the years I’ve developed a deep appreciation for those quiet, tender moments that make the early days with a new baby so special. I’m passionate about creating a calm, nurturing environment where parents can slow down, rest, and feel cared for while their baby receives attentive, loving care. I believe postpartum support should feel persona and that every family deserves care that is tailored to their unique needs and way of doing things. Infant sleep has also been a particular passion of mine for many years. I’ve spent a great deal of time studying infant sleep and different approaches to supporting healthy sleep, and I’m currently pursuing formal training in pediatric sleep consulting and lactation to continue expanding my expertise in these areas. I’m excited to continue growing in this field and to bring the experience, knowledge, and genuine care I’ve developed over the years to the families I work with.

Sheila Aldis

Hi, I’m Sheila. I’m a faith based birth & postpartum doula, photographer, and most importantly, a mom who knows how deeply personal this season of life can be. Becoming a mother myself changed the way I see birth. I remember the emotions, the questions, the vulnerability, and the overwhelming feeling of wanting someone beside you who simply gets it. That experience is what led me to doula work — because I wanted to become the person I wish every mother could have in her corner: someone who listens without judgment, stays calm when things feel overwhelming, helps you understand your options, and reminds you of your strength when you need it most. With over six years of experience working with children and families, professional doula training, continued mentorship, and my own experience as a mom, I bring both knowledge and genuine heart into the room. I’m not there to take over your birth or tell you how it should go — I’m there to learn you, support your wishes, help you feel prepared, and be the steady presence you can lean on. And because I’m also a photographer, I have a special love for capturing the little moments you may not even realize are happening — the first touch, the tears, the tiny details, and the way your family changes in an instant. My packages can also include birth photography, postpartum meal prep, and a postpartum visit, so my support doesn’t simply end when your baby arrives. I want you to feel like you found your person someone you can text, laugh with, cry with, ask the “is this normal?” questions, and feel completely comfortable being yourself around. If you’re looking for someone who will care for you like a person, not just a client, I’d love to meet you. 🤍

Milati cared for our newborn son for 6 weeks and was such a huge help for us at night. She especially was helpful around the 6 week mark when our son was very fussy and was up frequently in the night. Milati would rock him and sing to him to soothe him. She also was able to help us with some chores when he was sleeping, which was really appreciated. I definitely recommend Milati!

Divya Adibhattla

Hey, My name is Divya. I am a pediatric Sleep consultant and mom of two toddlers. I know the importance of sleep in a family and work towards spreading my knowledge across families. When I talk to a struggling parent, I know where they are coming from. If you are struggling with your little one’s sleep struggles, please reach out to me and we should talk

We highly recommend Divya to anyone struggling with their baby's sleep. Before we found her, bedtime was exhausting. We had to rock our son for 15–30 minutes just to get him down, and even then he'd only sleep 2–3 hours at a stretch. We were both drenched in sweat from all the rocking, and only my wife or I could get him to sleep, even with help at home, no one else could manage it. Divya reassured us that even a 10 week old could be sleep shaped and eventually sleep trained. We followed her guidance, and within just 2 days, our son was sleeping independently in his bassinet. He's now 7 months old, and he has slept independently ever since. We've never had to rock him again. Divya helped us build a solid bedtime routine, and now he wakes up at most once during a 12 hour night, sometimes not at all. Naps have become effortless too. What surprised us most is that better sleep didn't just help nighttime, it transformed his wake windows too. He became more predictable, more active, and more engaged while awake. That gave us the confidence to travel with him, and since then we've taken him to 2 countries, 7 states, and 9 flights, and he's thrived through all of it, even across different time zones, thanks to Divya's guidance on managing sleep while traveling. Without Divya, none of this would have been possible. She gave us our lives back while giving our son the gift of great sleep. If you're a new parent struggling with sleep, don't wait. Reach out to Divya as early as possible. It will make parenting so much easier.

Working with Deborah was the single best decision we made after bringing our baby girl home. As first-time parents, we were completely overwhelmed by sleep deprivation and the constant questions of newborn life. Deborah stepped in with a wealth of knowledge, a calm and reassuring demeanor, and an incredible instinct for what both baby and parents needed. Knowing our little one was in expert hands overnight allowed us to finally get some rest. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

I am so grateful I found Anita as my doula. She responded quickly to my inquiry through insurance, which meant a lot because I was trying to secure a doula as soon as possible and learn more about the process. From the beginning, she made me feel at ease, calm, and truly understood. She listened to what I wanted for my birth experience and respected my preferences. During labor, Anita was incredibly responsive—always quick to answer texts and calls—and she arrived at the hospital right on time. She was professional, supportive, and fully present throughout the entire process. I had a natural birth, and the pain was intense, but Anita made a huge difference. She used techniques like applying pressure, guiding me into helpful positions, and placing cold towels on my forehead and chest to keep me comfortable. Her support helped me get through one of the most challenging moments of my life. Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend Anita to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and skilled doula.

We are incredibly grateful to have had Rosangela as our doula during our baby’s first month of life. From day one, she was punctual, reliable, and—most importantly—exceptionally caring with our newborn. Rosangela supported us for four weeks and was flexible with her schedule, even accommodating our request for a later start. When her assignment with us was coming to an end, she went above and beyond by helping us find a second doula to ensure continuity of care as well as training that doula to ensure no disruption. Even after rolling off, she has continued to check in with us, offering guidance and thoughtful support, which has meant so much during the postpartum period. During her time with us, Rosangela supported night feedings by gently waking both mom and baby, assisted with latching, burped the baby, and handled diaper changes throughout feeds. She supported our baby’s first bath, helped with baby laundry, and took care of all breast pump setup and cleanup—assembling parts, washing them, and making sure everything was ready for the next pumping session. These details made an enormous difference during those early, exhausting weeks. She consistently offered helpful advice and reassurance, always in a respectful way that made us feel supported rather than directed. Rosangela brought a calm, nurturing presence into our home, and we truly felt that our baby was in loving, experienced and capable hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Rosangela to any family looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dependable doula. She was an invaluable part of our postpartum journey.

Kim is great! We hired Kim as our birth doula and had a wonderful experience. - She's super knowledgeable & experienced-- with her prep sessions, I didn't feel the need to do any additional birth prep classes and I felt informed & empowered going into my birth. - I really trusted her to help us navigate choice and make good decisions that were medically safe & aligned with our preferences. This was a huge stress reliever for me-- it let me avoid sifting through endless info on the internet. - She helped bring my partner in to the birth experience and supported both of us throughout. - She worked flawlessly with the staff at UCSF. Kim felt like a trusted member of our medical team. This was especially nice when hospital shifts changed or when we needed help weighing options. - Her support during the birth itself was exactly what I needed, from physical comfort measures to brainstorming options to emotional support. We had a wonderful birth and Kim's support was a big part of that. Can't recommend her highly enough.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Liv care for our daughter from 2 to 3.5 months old. She was consistently kind, attentive, and genuinely caring, treating our baby with so much patience, gentleness, and love. Our daughter has moderate laryngomalacia, which required extra attention and care, and Liv handled it with remarkable compassion and dedication. When our daughter was sick or uncomfortable, Liv would stay up with her, holding her upright for extended periods to help her breathe and rest more comfortably. She always put our baby’s well-being first and never hesitated to go above and beyond to ensure she was cared for. As new parents, it gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our daughter was in such capable and loving hands overnight. Liv was reliable, nurturing, and attentive to our daughter’s needs, and we always felt confident that she was safe, comforted, and cared for. Beyond her excellent care of our baby, Liv was also supportive and reassuring to us as parents during those early months. Her calm presence, experience, and genuine affection for our daughter made a meaningful difference for our family. We are deeply grateful for everything Liv did for our family and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a compassionate, trustworthy, and exceptional night doula.

Good Evening Everyone, my name is Uheina Tonga. I am a certified postpartum doula, and an infant specialist/night nanny. I grew up in the Bay Area, and specifically San Mateo, but I live in Brisbane now. I have been an infant specialist/ night nanny for 20 years, and before I raised five children of my own. My favorite thing about caring for the newborn is when they come home from the hospital, and I am ready to care for them while mom is trying to get some rest. This gives me a sense of great accomplishment when I can able to earn your trust and help you get the rest you need each night. I have cared for over 100 babies in the course of 20 years. I've gained many experiences in caring for babies, but different and unique in their own way. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, whether its going on a trip to the coast, or making dinner together, or just hanging around and play board games. It is creating memories and it is sort of the same way when I come into your home and care for the baby. It is a beginning of creating memories for baby and your family!
