About Me

Hello, I'm Christine and I'm glad to be able to support you in your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. With almost a decade of experience I have been able to be a part of 100's of peoples lives during their transition to parenthood and some of the most exciting and challenging times of life.

My view of birth is that each person and each pregnancy, birth, and postpartum circumstance is unique. Everyone has the right to make the decision they feel is best for them I am here to support them in that. I can provide you with evidence-based information, emotional support, and guidance on physical support to help you to be as comfortable and confident as possible.

After my own births, I have learned the importance of education and support in preparation for such a life-changing event, childbirth and parenting. Finding myself naturally helping others with pregnancy and parenting, I decided to take that interest even further and be able to reach more people. My hope is to allow families to figure out their own wishes for their personal experiences, and support them in what they decide.

I have a variety of trainings surrounding pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, all to enhance my support to families. I also has a bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Family Science with a minor in Sociology. With this extra knowledge, I am able to assist families and parents in their new transition.

I have also had experience outside of the United States, having lived in Mexico for 10+ years where my first child was born. Working with the people there, I was able to understand the culture and is now bilingual in both English and Spanish, and is one of the few Spanish Speaking Doulas in the Bay Area. This experience allowed me to be open and understanding to people from different backgrounds and with different ideas.

When not supporting people for birith and postpartum, I am likely working at home with my family including my 7 kids, or running back and forth to a sporting event. I am involved in my local church and love connecting with people.

I am dedicated to help each person find the care and resources they need. I believe that everyone deserves access to supportive care and should be able to get that. I am grateful for your trust and would love to be a part of your journey as well.
