A Bay Area postpartum doula offering thoughtful, nurturing care to mothers and families as they find their footing in the tender, ever-changing season after birth.

My approach to postpartum care is rooted in a simple belief: when a baby is born, a mother and family are becoming, too. Postpartum deserves to be treated as its own sacred transition—not simply a period to “get through,” but a time for healing, nourishment, rest, connection, and learning one another all over again.

I believe postpartum care is about more than helping with baby. It’s about learning the shape of this new chapter together—who you are becoming, what your body and spirit need, what your family needs, and how I can help make room for you to rest, recover, and simply be.

My care is warm, intuitive, culturally rooted, and deeply personal. I draw from evidence-informed postpartum care while holding a deep appreciation for ancestral and traditional practices that have long understood something modern life can sometimes forget: the person who has given birth needs tending, too. Nourishment, warmth, rest, touch, community, ritual, and being cared for are all meaningful parts of recovery.

I listen between the lines. I notice the little things. And I meet you where you are rather than arriving with a predetermined idea of what postpartum is supposed to look like.

Some days, that may mean caring for baby while you finally get uninterrupted sleep. Other days, I may be preparing something nourishing, supporting feeding and newborn care, tending to your comfort and recovery, helping your home feel a little lighter, or giving you space to shower, eat, breathe, create, talk, cry, laugh, or simply exist without someone needing something from you.

My background as an educator, artist, caregiver, and doula also shapes the way I enter this work. I value curiosity over judgment, connection over perfection, and care that honors the whole person. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions, changing your mind, discovering what works for your family, and growing into your own instincts rather than feeling pressured to perform motherhood in any particular way.

I hold particular intention around creating affirming care for Black and Brown mothers and families, while warmly welcoming families across identities, structures, and experiences. Every home is different. Every baby is different. Every postpartum season is different. Your care should be, too.

At the heart of my work, I want to be a soft place to land.

A steady, caring presence in your home who honors the mother just as deeply as the baby—someone who can step into the tender in-between moments, listen closely, care intentionally, and help you feel a little more held as you become acquainted with this new version of your life.

Because while so much of your attention is being poured outward, you deserve to be poured into, too.
