Hi there! I’m Jalisa Burton, co-founder of Divine Birthing Services and a proud Full Spectrum Doula and Certified Effective Black Parenting Educator. Supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond is more than what I do — it’s who I am. For me, this work is a divine calling, one that allows me to help parents feel safe, respected, and deeply supported during one of life’s most powerful journeys. My approach is rooted in compassion, education, and empowerment. I believe every parent deserves to feel seen, heard, and cared for in a way that honors their values and choices. Whether it’s offering emotional reassurance, sharing evidence-based guidance, or simply holding space, my goal is always to create an environment where families can embrace birth with confidence and peace of mind. Before stepping into birthwork, I proudly served in the U.S. Coast Guard, where I learned the importance of service, resilience, and standing strong for others. Those same values now shape how I show up for families — with steady support, calm presence, and unwavering dedication. Beyond birthwork, I’m a wife and mom of three, which means I know firsthand the joys, challenges, and transformations that come with parenting. I love exploring new places, trying new cuisines, and making memories with my family. I’d be honored to walk this journey with you. Let’s connect and create a birthing experience that’s sacred, supported, and uniquely yours. 💫Reach out today — I can’t wait to meet you! 💫

My name is Emma and I am a Registered Nurse and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and mom of two serving Ventura County and located in the Ojai Valley, CA. I am here to walk by your side and support you as you plan for and navigate your infant feeding journey and to help you find what works best for you and your baby. I completed my lactation education through a rigorous training through UC San Diego through the Lactation Pathway 2 educational certificate program. I spent hundreds of hours of clinical training under the guidance of longtime IBCLC’s/lactation consultants at Kaiser Santa Rosa in their pediatric clinic providing hands on care to families with newborns and infants. I can help you navigate and customize plans based on your individual needs and infant feeding goals with issues such as: improving baby’s latch, breastfeeding positions, questions/concerns on infant weight gain or milk transfer, supply issues, nipple or breast pain, clogged ducts or mastitis, combination feeding and supplementation, pumping, back to work plans, introducing solids, night weaning, pregnancy and breastfeeding, tandem feeds, food allergies and breastfeeding, medication use in breastfeeding, or weaning. I have personal experience navigating infant food allergies while breastfeeding as well as navigating caring for a medically complex child. I approach caring for my clients in a respectful, nonjudgmental, holistic, and comprehensive manner. I welcome all families and parenting adults to my practice!

Like most men, I probably had no idea what a doula did. After meeting with Pamela, I learned quite a bit and felt comfortable in having her be a part of our birth experience. I was able to be there for my wife emotionally and Pamela took care of everything else. She supported my wife in a way that I couldn't have. I have no idea how we could have done it without her. She was the true MVP that day. I can't thank her enough. Her experience as a nurse was super helpful. We will hire her again for our next pregnancy!

The postpartum support I received was truly a lifesaver. From expert newborn care guidance to emotional reassurance, every aspect was handled with compassion and professionalism. The help with breastfeeding, sleep routines, and self-care made a world of difference in my recovery. I felt supported, understood, and empowered--highly recommend to any new parent!

Karly was an amazing doula and lactation consultant for my wife. She went above and beyond and was crucial in helping my wife feel more confident in breastfeeding before leaving the hospital. She was also a very kind and calming presence during labor. We can't thank her enough.

— vanessa juarez, review of Emma O'Brien March 2026

I am so grateful for the incredible support Emma provided when she came to my home a day after I returned from the hospital. I was a bit stressed about my milk supply after a few conversations with nurses at the hospital, but Emma immediately put me at ease. She brought so much expertise, encouragement, and practical guidance which helped me feel confident in my ability to breastfeed my baby. She made herself readily available for all my questions and even followed up after our initial appointment to make sure everything was going well. Her kindness and knowledge made such a difference during a really vulnerable time. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better lactation consultant. Highly recommend Emma to any new parent looking for support!

— Yma Winton, review of Emma O'Brien November 2025

Emma was a complete life saver during the birth and postpartum experience of my third baby this past Spring. When my birth plan shifted unexpectedly, she guided me through each change with so much steadiness, clarity, and compassion. Her support helped me stay grounded and confident even when things felt uncertain. What made the biggest difference, though, was the way she emphasized true rest and real self-care in those early weeks. With Emma’s presence, I felt fully supported, seen, and able to recover in a way I never had with my previous births. She offered practical help, emotional support, and a calming presence that made our home feel held. Her guidance supported a positive breastfeeding experience and helped me manage the hormonal roller coaster of postpartum with more grace. I can’t imagine having navigated this season without her. If you’re considering postpartum care or infant feeding support, Emma brings a level of expertise, heart, and intuition that is truly rare. I’m endlessly grateful.
