Hi there-my name is Leona and I am a labor doula and a seasoned birth photographer and videographer. My own traumatic birth experience turned my world 180 degrees and I became consumed with all things birth and telling many family stories through art. I became a birth doula early in 2021 and find the two disciplines to be magic. I am committed to providing unconditional support to every parent type and advocacy throughout this journey with you.

Hello, my name is Virgin Watters and everyone calls me "Virgie". I am a Birth Doula and Certified Lactation educator. I am also a Registered Nurse with a background in Public Health and child health/safety. I became a doula to help provide support and to advocate for women throughout the birthing/postpartum process. My goal as a doula is to provide a memorable birth experience for my clients by ensuring that their voices are heard and that they receive culturally sensitive care along their birth journey. I look forward to helping you develop a birth plan that meets your personalized needs.

Hello, I'm Cierria Leyazhié or you may call me Apache, and I believe birth is one of God’s most beautiful and sacred calls. My passion is supporting mothers not just through the physical act of labor, but through the profound spiritual and energetic transformation it demands. My approach is built on three distinct pillars: Pillar 1: Christ-Centered Care & Hypnobirthing: I equip you with Scriptural affirmations, prayerful grounding techniques, and Christian Hypnobirthing methods—helping you replace fear and tension with profound relaxation and faith, working toward a gentler, less painful birth experience. Pillar 2: Ayurvedic Wisdom & Doula Training: My commitment to holistic health is backed by rigorous education from the Southern California University of Health Sciences (SCUHS), where I earned certifications as an Ayurvedic Wellness Educator and Ayurvedic Health Practitioner. I then completed my full-spectrum doula training with the Sankofa Birthing Collective. I guide mothers toward balanced health, focusing heavily on Vata-pacifying principles—the ancient practice of using warmth, nourishment, and deep rest for true physical and nervous system recovery during the crucial 42-day postpartum period. Pillar 3: Advanced Lactation & Education: As a Certified Lactation Educator who is actively working to complete requirements to become an IBCLC, I provide high-level, up-to-date, evidence-based childbirth and feeding education, ensuring you have the practical tools and specialized knowledge necessary for an empowered birth and a successful breastfeeding start. Whether through Ayurvedic food guidance, gentle herbal recommendations, or prayerful presence, I am here to help you experience a birth that is peaceful, powerful, and deeply honoring of your body and your faith. ​A Holistic Approach to Your Fourth Trimester Whether it is through preparing Ayurvedic "warm-natured" meals, providing gentle herbal recommendations, or offering a prayerful presence, I am here to ensure your postpartum period is a time of deep rest rather than depletion. I am dedicated to helping you experience a birth and recovery that is peaceful, powerful, and deeply honoring of your body and your faith.

Hello my name is Flora but everyone calls me Marga. I am a foreign Registered Nurse with ICU and NICU experience. I worked as a Registered Nurse for 20 years, then I started working as a birth and postpartum Doula as well as a Newborn Care Specialist. I love working with babies and help families to bond and to have a smooth transition with their babies.

I’m a Los Angeles-based birth doula — also a wife, mother and dog-parent. My mission as a doula is to support & empower each client as they prepare for birth, guided by intuition, self-awareness, comfort + evidence-based knowledge. I trained at Bini Birth in 2022, and have spent the years since deepening my learning and preparing to support all types of births — including through my own birth prep (baby Elie joined us in 2024!). My path to this work likely began when I was 8 years old, attending the births of my nieces — though I didn’t know it then. Knowing now about the impact of doula-care, I’m so grateful for the opportunity to nurture my clients in their big threshold moments. When I’m not obsessing over the miracles of pregnancy and birth, I’m working on projects related to community, ritual, rites of passage and belonging — drawing on ancient wisdom as an antidote to modern loneliness (@OneTable). I’m passionate about helping my clients define and realize their intentions around birth, weaving that intention into the preparation process so they can approach their birth experience with clarity, confidence, and a real sense of empowerment.

My Experience I have been a doula for over 3 years and have attended over 100 births. I am passionate about providing compassionate and personalized care to each woman and family I work with.

I take the time to listen to my clients and work with them to develop a birth plan that aligns with their values and goals. My goal is to empower women to make informed decisions about their care and to provide them with the support they need to have a positive birth experience. My Services I offer a full range of doula services including prenatal care, labor and birth support, postpartum care, and lactation support. I also provide home birth services for low-risk women and work closely with physicians and other healthcare providers to ensure the best possible outcomes for my clients.

Growing up, I had a very special relationship with my own babysitter who I looked up to. She became my first influence unknowingly to being in childcare. I try to carry her loving, thoughtful influence into my work as a nanny and newborn care specialist. I love working with children because they are so full of amazing energy and such a joy to be around. I learn a lot from them, like how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to be present in the moment. I have been working with children for seventeen years from the newborns to school age, but specialize in newborn/infant and toddler care.

I’m Allie Rose, a passionate and dedicated doula inspired by my own journey into motherhood. One of my biggest joys in life is my first born, my daughter, Quincy Rose. Her birth was a transformative experience—long, unexpected, and profoundly impactful. It was through this experience that I found my calling to support others during their own unique birth journeys. Shortly after Quincy was born, I immersed myself in the world of birth work by completing my first doula training. From that moment on, I’ve been honored to attend births and walk alongside families during one of the most intimate and powerful times in their lives. With the mindset that one can never learn enough, I’ve continually expanded my knowledge, most recently studying at Bini Birth, the leading child birth educators in Los Angeles which is DONA International approved. I also regularly attend doula gatherings and conferences to stay up-to-date and connected with my vibrant birth community. Beyond supporting births, I find deep joy in cooking and the nourishing connections it fosters. This passion drives my postpartum services, where I help new families nurture both their bodies and spirits as they navigate the joys and challenges of welcoming a newborn. I truly believe in the power of community, and I'd be honored to be a part of your village. Let’s connect and talk about how I can best support you as you begin this incredible journey.

I would love to connect if you are needing support and this speaks to you! warmth, Emma

Hello! My name is Jillian Manriquez. I am an enthusiast of humans helping humans. Although I have not experienced any of my own pregnancies, I have physically, mentally, and emotionally with my mom's three experiences. I've seen my mom go through each pregnancy differently as well as each of their births being unique in their own way but beautiful in every way. I have experienced seeing a supportive birth team by your side helps every woman feel more empowered and supported during this beautiful experience. My reason for becoming a birth doula is to come alongside each woman to support their desired birth plan and help them feel empowered through a vulnerable time.

Matrescence::: Embracing your journey of Motherhood I guide women through the unknown and chaotic journey, called birth. I am a compassionate guide offering soothing wisdom and expert support. My specialty is being a safe space for mothers to heal from past birth trauma. I help mothers reclaim their power and embody confidence for the next birth. ensuring parents feel seen, supported and ready to thrive. After my first born, I immediately knew that my birth experience was something amazing, transformational and empowering. I just didnt have the words, but after my first doula training I could better put it in a much richer context and support other mothers, pre-conception through postpartum. Over the next years I shared my story and supported mothers in my community as a doula. Eventually working as a full time postpartum doula, I realized a major barrier was during the breastfeediing journey. I followed my passion in nurturing mothers into their new normal, with confidence, comfort and compassion while training to become a lactation lactation consultant. I am now an expert wombkeeper- Waterbirth & Postpartum Doula, Afterbirth Restorative Therapist, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) just to name a few. I find much pleasure and joy in nurturing new families as they discover, connect and create their family culture around the couplet.

My resassuring, soothing wisdom and expert skills cultivate a visceral connection and safe space for new parents. I have traveled, trained and supported mothers internationally through pregnancy, labor/birth and breastfeeding. My signature, Afterbith Restorative Therapy Methods, support the new mother with restorative practices like belly binding, V-Steam, closing of the bones, as a time/space to reflect on their birth experiences. The Afterbirth Restorative Therapy Method not only provides a new mother with a greater sense of well-being; the new mother is better to care for herself and her new baby.

Hi, I’m Chloe Morin. Mother of two, a bonus mom of one, and now, a birth and postpartum doula. My journey into motherhood has shaped me in ways I never expected, revealing both the beauty and the deep vulnerability of bringing life into the world. I believe there are two moments in life when heaven meets earth—marriage and birth. Birth is raw, powerful, and life-changing, and no woman should have to navigate it alone. My passion is to stand with women in one of the most vulnerable times of their lives, offering support, advocacy, and a steady presence, no matter what their journey looks like. Beyond birth, I am dedicated to postpartum care that truly nurtures. The fourth trimester is just as important as birth itself, and every mother deserves care that honors her healing—physically, emotionally, and mentally. My goal is simple: to ensure women feel supported, seen, and strong in this transformative season of life. I would be honored to walk this journey with you.

I am a trained Australian Registered Nurse and Midwife, an early childhood RN and Nurse Educator.
