Private Postpartum Doula/ Sleeping Training D.S. October 2024 - The first two years I worked full time taking care of the twins. Provided postpartum infant care by supporting mother with newborn babies - assisted with feeding, diaper changing, bathing, dressing, sleep training, setting up babies' schedule as children grew. Additional house support included laundry, cooking and light cleaning. As they grew, the following two years I worked part-time, transporting them to and from school, helping with homework and projects, preparing healthy meals, taking care of their laundry. Nowadays I am still their nanny when the family needs something extra. Private

Hello my name is Samantha and I am a queer doula looking to support queer and BIPOC families in the Sacramento area. I’ve been a nanny for over a decade and decided to make the switch to birth work at the beginning of 2024. I started my training in March and have been working solely in postpartum but plan to also offer fertility and birth support in the near future. Looking forward to connecting and bringing you support!

Samantha provided exceptional postpartum care for our family! As first-time parents, we greatly valued her knowledgable support with bathing, feeding, and all aspects of newborn care. Her calming presence instilled confidence in both her and ourselves.

Hello! I’m Kerynn, and I’m a Certified Birth and Postpartum doula serving the greater Sacramento area. I became a doula in 2019 after the birth of my son, and soon I realized how passionate I am about supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and parenthood. Often we have a lack of community, and the village everyone talks about doesn’t exist for many. Doulas help, and I’m honored to support new families during such an important time.

I hold many roles in life: I’m a mom, a wife, a yoga teacher, a dog mom, and a doctorate student. I was born in Indonesia and moved to NYC when I was 17 years old. Life has brought me through so many transitions, and right now, I’m experiencing one of the biggest—becoming an ibu (Indonesian for mother). I’m currently taking a gap year from my doctorate studies to fully embrace this new chapter and care for our baby girl. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me practicing yoga, exploring spirituality, getting lost in a good book, or discovering new restaurants and nature spots. I believe in slowing down, appreciating the present, and holding onto the little moments that make life special. So, if you're looking for someone to capture your story - the warm, raw, and real moments that feel like you, I’d love to be a part of it💛
