With a calm presence, attentive care, and deep respect for each family's unique journey, I’m here to help you feel empowered, informed, and nurtured every step of the way. Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating postpartum recovery, or simply seeking a reassuring guide through the changes ahead, I’m honored to walk beside you.
Having Aime Mite as our doula was one of the best decisions we made during our pregnancy and birth. Her warm, kind, and steady presence was exactly what we needed. In our prenatal visits, she helped us prepare with useful 'tricks' and patiently answered all our questions. During labor, she was a constant source of support, suggesting positions, providing comfort measures, and offering reassuring words when I needed them most. She also helped my husband understand what was going on and empowered him to be an active part of the process. Even when things didn't go exactly as planned, Aime helped us navigate the changes with confidence and calm. Her dedication and knowledge made a significant difference in our birth experience, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she did. We wholeheartedly recommend Aime Mite to anyone seeking exceptional doula support!.

As a doula, I hold a deep respect for the wonders of the human body, a passion in what nature has to teach us and a genuine love of people. I have been guided to birthwork by my own life experiences, including the birth of my children, and learning to co-exist with pelvic floor dysfunction. It is a deep honor to be able to provide compassionate support, evidence-based information and guidance to all birthing people. My passion is ignited when I spend time with my clients and hold loving space for their unique and transformative journey. As a Full Spectrum Doula, I support every type of birth, all birthing people and all reproductive experiences.
When anticipating giving birth for the first time, I couldn’t have imagined just how crucial Tynesha’s role would be at my natural birth. Our prenatal sessions were informative and important for building a rapport that enabled her to support me exactly as I needed during my labor. During contractions, she offered pain relief by using counter-pressure techniques and heat application, as well as massage between contractions for my aching back. She anticipated my needs to suggest new positions and helped me establish a focal point (a candle) that became critical to staying calm during intense contractions and during the pushing phase. She supported my husband throughout the process as well, guiding him in assisting me. I labored at the natural birth center for 30 hours before giving birth, and Tynesha stayed by my side for almost the entire time - taking only a few very short rest breaks for herself - never showing me her fatigue but always providing calm, steady encouragement. The emotional support she provided reassured me when I felt overwhelmed. In addition to the important help she offered during my labor, Tynesha’s prenatal and postpartum visits have been wonderful. She has given me many ideas for caring for myself and my new baby as well as hands on support at my home. She provided a referral to a lactation consultant by contacting the consultant on my behalf with all of the information she had collected regarding my breastfeeding, streamlining the process. Her detailed written notes on my labor proved valuable as well when I had questions weeks after giving birth. I also need to say that Tynesha has a great sense of humor! Our appointments were truly fun and we shared lots of laughs, which has been especially important to me amid the challenges of the postpartum period.

Whether you’re a first-time parent or adding another baby to the family, I’m here to provide the guidance and encouragement you need. When I’m not busy supporting other families as a doula, I am a mom of two amazing kiddos and a wife. Or you may see me assisting in bringing new life into the world as a Labor and Delivery RN. I recently started my journey as a pregnancy, birth, and postpartum Doula. I am also a International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). After my own struggles with breastfeeding my daughter, I set out to become more educated and trained to help my patients, friends, and family with breastfeeding. I am passionate about getting parents thru the early days with a minimal amount of tears (sorry, there will always be some). If you need tips on latching, positioning, bottle feeding, figuring out pumping schedules, managing clogged ducts or mastitis or just need a support experienced mama in your corner, I’m your gal!
Our daughter was going through a difficult period feeding and my wife had been so stressed before talking to Karly, she was contemplating giving up. She seems like a different person just having a plan that she could work through. Even that day was already a huge improvement and we’ve continued to make strides over the next week. Anyway, just wanted to express our thanks! 🙏

Hello families! Congratulations on your new addition(s)! My name is Kaila Stephens and I am a Newborn Care Specialist and Certified Lactation Counselor located in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have provided care for infants and their families for over a decade. I have a background in Early Childhood Care & Education, advanced newborn care training, and expertise in feeding, sleep shaping, parent education, nursery and baby registry set-up. Bringing new life into the world is an incredibly special and exciting time for families, but it is also a vulnerable time. My practice is judgement-free. My primary goal is to provide your family with the most support and knowledge possible to set you up for parenting success. When I am not caring for babies or running my business, I enjoy going to the park with my son, walking my dog Nemo, tending to my garden or reading a good book.
Kaila was the best thing that happened to our family post partum!!! We had her come the day after our baby boy was born, and she immediately eased our tired minds and hearts. We weren't the type of couple that did lots of research pre-baby, but that was OK (only) because Kaila came in and taught us EVERYTHING - from bottle sterilization, to pumping and how to measure the flanges, to newborn behavior and sleep patterns, to literally how to change a diaper.. She taught me how to breast feed and pump, and was supportive through my struggles. I get emotional even just thinking about HOW crucial having her help was. She was always on time and was flexible when we needed to increase hours. You can tell she really loves what she does which is so important in my opinion! We were originally contracted to work with her for 6 weeks but ended up extending our time because we found soooo much value in working with her. The peace of mind that we could rest at night without worrying about our baby was absolutely priceless. If we have a second child, we will 10000% work with Kaila again, and I recommend using her to every person I know who is currently pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant. Getting help with a baby during the night is pricey, but it's hands down the best, most important money we've ever spent.

Parents: please share your EDD & contact info in the message body 🙏🏾 Birth doula of 13 years. This is my calling in life to be of service to labor/birth. I’m very grateful to have this as my service in this lifetime and believe every new life is a gift to be honored with care, love and respect for the process. Trained in techniques that encourage optimal fetal positioning by finding balance in the body (more comfort during pregnancy as well as labor/birth) optimal positioning helps labor be more comfortable, increasing odds of a efficient and smoother vaginal birth. I share these techniques with my clients in the third trimester to decrease the use of interventions & prevent trauma. Also practicing placenta encapsulation and massage therapy at Full Moon Birth & Family Wellness Center.
We had the most magical natural unmedicated birth experience in a hospital and we owe so much of it to Gretchen. Right from our first interaction when we were interviewing birth doulas, we were drawn by her warm nature. Her prenatal visits were extremely helpful be it the exercises she taught us to enable an optimal baby position for birth or her inputs into crafting our birth plan. We would have been lost with the information overload if not for her timely, targeted and super informative educational resources that have been extremely helpful to us as first time parents. She has always been a text or phone call away to address anything we needed. She brought in a sign of relief when she entered the labor room...her calming presence during my final stretch of labor and the positions she guided me through definitely helped me avoid an epidural. The icing on the cake was her singing a lullaby to our little one upon birth, it felt divine. She also captured beautiful moments of our baby's birth that we will cherish forever. I will always remember her positive affirmation 'You are stronger than you think!'. Can't thank you enough Gretchen for being the rockstar that you are and all your support to growing families :)

We originally planned for only 1 month with Stephanie, but we loved having her help so we asked her to stay for another month. We wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone who needs a night doula.

Supporting new parents during the sacred early days of parenthood is not just my work—it's my calling. I became a postpartum doula because I believe every family deserves to feel cared for, understood, and supported as they adjust to life with a newborn. My journey into this field began when I moved to California during my two years as an au pair, caring for young children and living closely with families. That experience sparked a deep passion in me for helping others navigate the tender, transformative moments of new beginnings. I saw firsthand how much of a difference compassionate, hands-on support can make —and I knew I wanted to offer that to growing families in a deeper way.
