About me

Hello Everyone! My name is Donna Moragne-Hanson and I am a licensed midwife in Los Angeles, CA. I provide well-woman, pre-conception, prenatal/postpartum care, doula care, childbirth education and lactation support from the privacy of my in-home birthing studio where you & your family will be provided with everything you need for a safe, comfortable and peaceful birth. You will also receive 24 Golden Hours of maternal postpartum & newborn postpartum care as you receive 3 homemade meals created to restore, center and balance your body before journeying home with your new babe. In addition I offer Closing of the Bones ceremonial care, yoni steams, herbal baths, as well as Postpartum Ala-carte services. For me, establishing trust with my client is the most important and fundamental and important. My practice is built on nurturing trust and learning to let go of the things we allow to interfere with trust. I want to encourage trusting in yourself; trusting in your body (and the natural process of giving birth); trusting in your baby (and their own divinely written birth story); trusting in humanity (and the world your baby is born into) and trusting in our partnership; as client and midwife. I believe, when a woman is heard, she is seen; when she is seen, she has a voice; and as her midwife I am compelled to encourage her to honor that voice; her voice. In this way I believe I am blessed with an opportunity to fulfill my role as supporter, facilitator, educator and client advocate; the ultimate calling of a midwife. For me, describing the process of birth is like trying to describe a miracle; and walking with a woman as she becomes a mother is even more profound…I am beyond words. Donna, LM, CPM

Donna gave me the confidence and calm I needed for my first birth. She was there every step of the way to answer all my questions, no matter how silly! My doctor was very impressed with how prepared and informed I was. I would love to work with Donna again.
