Hello! My name is Kennedy, and I would be honored to offer my services to you as a birth doula OR an overnight post partum doula/newborn care specialist! My philosophy is that judgement and restriction has no place in birth work. I'm not here to tell you what to do or turn my nose up at you for what you choose not to do. I'm here to support your decisions, let you know the pros and cons, and teach you how to trust your intuition when it comes to your baby and your body. My number one goal is to always provide a safe space for you and your family as you navigate the messy beauty that is birth and postpartum. I cannot wait to hear from you and I wish you the best of luck in your search to find the perfect fit for you and your tribe!
Loved having Kennedy here to help me out as my postpartum doula! She was so patient, genuinely kind, and very knowledgeable. As a first time mom, I had worries about how my birth would go but I didn't even think to consider my postpartum experience. I was stressed those first few weeks, but hiring Kennedy lifted a huge weight off of my shoulders and allowed me to rest and heal properly so that my baby could get the best version of me. I will always be grateful for her help and I cannot recommend her enough!

As a full-spectrum doula with eight years of experience working with newborns and supporting families, I am deeply committed to empowering parents during one of the most transformative times of their lives. As a devoted mother to my four-year-old, who had an amazing home birth experience with a supportive birth team, I understand firsthand the joys and challenges of parenthood, and I bring that empathy into my work. Currently pursuing my studies in midwifery, I am dedicated to expanding my skills to offer even greater support to families. I also have a passion for fitness and nutrition, and I love helping prenatal and postpartum mothers prioritize their wellness, recognizing that a healthy body and mind contribute to a positive parenting experience. My philosophy centers on creating a nurturing, nonjudgmental space where families feel seen, supported, and equipped to thrive in their unique journeys.

Hi there, I’m Becky and have been working with new families since 2016 as a doula and parent educator in the Los Angeles, Ca and surrounding communities. I truly believe the support of a new mother starts during pregnancy and through the first year postpartum. I am a first generation Latinx woman and use the pronouns She/Her/Ella. I primarily grew up in Whittier, CA, but spend several years in Nayarit, Mexico. I am married with 3 beautiful children of my own. I hope I can help you plan for the best birth and postpartum period imaginable.
Becky provided our family with postpartum doula services following the birth of our third child. Becky was kind, attentive, knowledgable, and met the ever changing needs of our family as we adjusted to having a new baby. I am forever grateful for Becky's expertise as well as her supportive and thoughtful approach to working with us.

My name is Jalyn and I am a holistically trained full-spectrum doula, placenta encapsulation specialist, and Certified Lactation Education Specialist! My contribution to birth-work is an extension of my spiritual practice that creates a sacred and safe space for truth, radically honest storytelling, generational karmic clearing, sovereign decision making, incorporating forgotten herbal and ancestral practices, reinforcing the importance of community support, and my capacity to support parents in a way that encompasses their holistic wellbeing-- and that of course includes plenty of recalibration and restoration during such a major lifestyle transformation. My hands-on support is an intersection of evidence-based practices with individualized approaches to care. I inform families of ALL of their options before, during, and after pregnancy — advocating for and supporting them in WHATEVER decisions they feel suit them best! I currently support families choosing home birth, birth center or hospital. I am proudly born and raised in South Central Los Angeles and my journey has been inspired by the stories of beautiful Black families in my community, both tragic and revolutionary! Alongside having a background in spiritual and shamanic facilitation , I also have 1+ years of experience with child care/live-in full time nannying, light tutoring, family centered wellness. In my personal time I love to create art through various mediums of expression (painting, crochet, herbal medicine making), create short films documenting my journey of evolution, and uplift the vibration of the collective around me by sharing wisdom based upon my personal experiences as a 26 year old! I intend to give women and families a safe space to express and embody their truths-- no matter how raw or unconventional.

Hi, my name is Sabrina Osorio, and I’m a passionate Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist with many years of experience. I love what I do—supporting families during such a special and delicate time fills my heart with purpose. Every family teaches me something new, and that inspires me to keep learning and growing so I can guide with even more care and professionalism. My goal is always to create a calm, nurturing space where parents feel confident and supported, and babies can thrive. It’s a joy and an honor to do this work, and I’m grateful for every family who allows me to be part of their journey.
Sabrina has been our night nurse for close to 2 months and I don't know what we would have done with out her. She's always on time. Checks in throughout the week to see how things are going. Provides guidance on every newborn challenge we have faced- gas/reflux, mastitis, when our baby started rejecting the bottle, and so much more. She's helped us lay the foundation for good sleeping habits so that we're setup for success in the future, and she is great with our baby. Sabrina is kind, caring and incredibly knowledgable. I cannot recommend her enough.

It is with pleasure that I write this review for Veronica Hinojosa, who served as my postpartum doula and night nurse. During one of the most vulnerable times in my life, Veronica’s motherly presence provided an immense sense of comfort and reassurance. Her warmth, kindness, and professionalism made all the difference in my postpartum journey. Veronica’s expertise and guidance were invaluable, particularly when it came to bottle feeding and establishing a daytime nap routine. Her advice was practical and effective, helping us create a rhythm that worked well for our baby. More than anything, I always felt secure knowing my little one was in her capable hands. Her natural talent for soothing and caring for infants gave me the peace of mind to truly rest and recharge for the following day. Additionally, Veronica’s dedication extended beyond her own services—when she was unavailable, she ensured we had reliable backup care through one of her trusted associates. This level of commitment and foresight further demonstrated her professionalism and reliability. I am incredibly grateful for Veronica’s support and would recommend her to any family in need of a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dependable postpartum doula or night nurse. She has been an invaluable part of our early parenting experience, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I am a postpartum doula and baby nurse with 10+ years of experience caring for infants, children, and adults in both hospital and home settings. Previously, I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in the Pediatrics, Postpartum, and Oncology units at Providence Saint John's and Cedars Sinai. Most recently, I've transitioned to working primarily in home settings. Being a CNA has increased my knowledge of overall health, physical fitness, and patient care for all ages. Caring for others is rewarding and fulfilling, which is why I continue to seek positions that will allow me to render the quality of care and compassion for which I am trained and gifted to provide. I've cared for a wide range of children ranging in age from newborn to fourteen years old. My passion for becoming a Postpartum Doula grew from my years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant in the Oncology department, where I cared for patients through their end-of-life journeys. While this work was deeply meaningful, it also inspired me to seek the joy and hope found in birth. I am now excited to join Happy Mama Healthy, where I can build relationships with more mothers and families, and make a positive impact in the world of birth work. I’d love to be able to continue the conversation with you to learn more about the role and see how my skills can help your family. Thank you for your consideration.
We are privileged to have employed Jacqueline Baptiste as our post-partum doula since January 2023. Jacqueline has been a fun, extremely reliable and hard-working doula for my four-month old daughter. Jacqueline has a great understanding of the needs and abilities of babies and is nurturing and responsive. Jacqueline has always brought a professional, thoughtful, and organized approach to the care of our child. Jacqueline makes play time fun, and my daughter is always happy to spend time with her. Jacqueline always goes the extra mile and helps with laundry, cleaning, and organization around the house. She does a fantastic job with keeping my daughters’ areas tidy, clean, and sanitized. Jacqueline can work in the intimate family environment with integrity and is trustworthy. We treasure Jacqueline and deeply value her contribution to our family.

Mara was wonderful!!! I was such a hormonal mess getting home from the hospital, and Mara helped me so much. I was afraid to let anyone hold my baby, but Mara was an exception. She was trustworthy in every way. She was a warm presence in our home. I also credit my baby sleeping through the night to Mara's nightly tending to him. She taught him patience and self-settling.
