Hi I am Rosemary, DONA Trained Postpartum Doula and Lactation Support. I would love to be your helping hand.

Recent review

Rosemary provided excellent support during my wife’s postpartum period, her presence, knowledge, and her unmeasurable care was the reason why family planning to have more babies. She assisted with breastfeeding and offered emotional reassurance when required. Her contributions were consistently available throughout this time.

I discovered a passion for caring for Moms and Dads while helping my daughter give birth to my first grandson. I am interested in keeping you comfortable, getting you the birth you want, and helping to defend your birth plan. I am a Spinning Babies Parent Educator (provisional), advanced VBAC doula and retired Hypnobabies instructor. I am also trained for the use of TENS in birth. In short I employ everything I can find to keep you safe, comfortable and calm. With over 9 years experience and helping with more than 110 babies, I would love to help you welcome your little one.

My journey began with a simple desire — to support women as they step into the transformative journey that is motherhood. I recognize that every mother's path is unique, with its own challenges and triumphs. I'm here to ensure that every step you take is met with understanding, knowledge, and unwavering support. Every mother's voice deserves to be heard, her choices respected, and her experiences validated. As an experienced birth and postpartum doula, I have seen the profound difference personalized care can make, and I strive to create an environment where you feel seen, understood, and empowered. You are the heart of this journey. They say it takes a village to raise a child. I would be honored to be part of yours!

Debra was very supportive and the best doula I could asked for. She was there when I gave birth to my first daughter, she made me feel heard and understood I would recommend her to anyone that needs a doula because she does above and beyond. In fact when I choose to have another baby I’ll make sure to contact her again to be my doula

Hi, I’m the mama behind Corazon de Madre. My journey into birthwork began with my own unmedicated birth—an experience that completely transformed me and awakened a deep desire to help women birth in God’s glory, power, and peace. I’m a Certified Doula through Pain Free Birth, a program rooted in undisturbed, unmedicated faith-based birth support, and I am also a HypnoBabies trained HypnoDoula. I’m currently working toward becoming both an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) and a Birthing from Within Childbirth Educator, blending clinical knowledge with creative, spiritual preparation. My approach weaves holistic traditions, ritual, and mindset work—using tools like birth art, journaling, and body-centered practices to help women connect deeply with themselves and their birth story. My dream is to offer perinatal healthcare that bridges Eastern wisdom and evidence-based care, honoring the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.

Gia was such a grounding presence throughout my pregnancy and birth. She really listened to what I wanted and made me feel supported the whole way through. From our prenatal visits to labor support, I felt like I had someone in my corner who truly cared. So grateful for her!

I am a certified doula providing continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to my clients, before, during, and after labor in the Los Angeles and Kern Counties. I believe all ways to birth (vaginally, medicated, caesarean birth, etc…) are legitimate and should be honored as birth experiences. I feel Partners of people giving birth should also feel supported and empowered during labor and birth. I will honor medication preferences during labor and birth. I will be there to educate and encourage your postpartum feeding preferences whether it is (bottle feed, breastfeed, formula feed, or using donor milk).

Hello! My name is Kelly and I am a birth doula in Lake Elsinore, CA. My three children (singleton and twins) were all born at home and that set me down this beautiful path. During those pregnancies I met many birth workers who changed my life, and my eyes were open to all of the many choices and options we have for ourselves and our babies. Informed consent, birth choice advocacy and childbirth education hold a special place in my heart.

ANGELINA, we have already made it clear to you. You have already went to yelp. We have reviewed your reviews., you go around making bad reviews because at a snap of a finger, one time visit we could not make due to an emergency induction for another mom. Out of 300 births, you are the only person who has ever tried to hurt my business the way you have. I personally feel that you have to heal in your postpartum that’s a priority to me versus my feelings at this point I have parted ways with you for more than one reason this is a public platform and I will not disclose any of your personal information. I did an absolutely fantastic job as doula , I did not ask you to write a review on this website, you made flaws claims and accusations about contracts. I have never made anyone sign. You made false claims about me not being communicative with you about a postpartum visit. You made false claims in regards to my professional professionalism. I helped watch your sweet baby boy while you were able to have a successful delivery. I have treated your family with absolute respect. But one thing I will not tolerate about my business as false accusation.. I will not move forward with any type of care in the future, and we have parted ways.

I hired Wendy to be my birth doula. as we got to know each other during the prenatal visits, I decided to also hire her for postpartum help. Wendy's approach to caring for me was so genuine, calm and patient. She is very knowledgeable. She always made sure that my needs were met. She went with me to the pediatrician and my OB appointment. She went grocery shopping for me; she took care of my baby while I napped and showered.

Hello Parents, I decided to begin my service as a Postpartum Doula because I have a passion for the wellness of women and children. I worked before as a Youth Liasion advocating for young people who battled homelessness. In my service, I met with several clients with little ones and they lacked the necessary resources to care for their children. I noticed the emotional strain that was placed on the mothers so I would help out where I could. I love spending time with children so I made the decision to become educated. My philosophy is this: you are not alone and it is perfectly fine to not know. You have support and you deserve it. My role is to help educate your family on how to care for your newborn and also provide emotional support so you can enjoy the process. Please feel free to reach out and contact me!
