Hey! My preferred name is Vivian. I believe pregnancy/Birth and Postpartum are very important and should be handled as a life event with the birthing person and family getting all the care resources and support they need and this is why I became a doula because CHANGE starts with you- I am here to make a difference no matter.

I was born and raised in the Bay Area and I am the middle child to two brothers. I grew up in a tight-knit family filled with mostly women so pregnancy was around me my whole life. I was always there when family members came home helping care for them and the baby in whatever I could. I started out as a pre-school teacher and a special education teacher’s assistant, both roles I enjoyed. I did my first official doula training in 2018 and immediately knew I had found my place. Learning about the birth disparities black women face and personal experience from my own birth made my drive to help women of color come alive. I have a special interest in breastfeeding as well and I hope I can help more women and people have successful breastfeeding journeys. As an aspiring midwife and I know that being a doula will help me in my journey there. I became a birthworker because I want to help other birthing women and peoples experience power in their birth and postpartum time. When I had my daughter I had some of my power taken away from me and I want to help other birthing women and people know their rights so that can never happen. I chose this path because I want to make sure they feel loved, protected, well informed, and heard. I see it as my responsibility to my community to be of service and purposeful in the care I provide.

If you’re looking for support on your parenting journey, interested in collaborating on community initiatives, or just want to connect—I’d love to hear from you!

Hi my name is Allison! Helping families with breastfeeding is my passion. As a mother myself, I've gone through feeding struggles firsthand. What I've learned is that having good support is key to getting feeding off to a great start. Being a young mom with a baby in the NICU and going through pre-eclampsia without support, ignited the fire in me to help others have the support that I needed during that fragile time. I completed my IBCLC certification through UC San Diego Extention under Dr. Gini Baker in 2019 and did my clinical work at SJGH's NICU wing. I currently offer in home lactation consults in the San Joaquin and Sacramento areas, as well as virtual consults.
