About Me

Hi, I’m Morgan, a trauma-informed, full-spectrum doula and the founder of Modern Day Poppins. I support families throughout the South Bay and greater Los Angeles area during pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenthood.

I’ve spent more than 15 years supporting children and families in the greater Los Angeles. I specialize in supporting first-time parents, people navigating birth trauma or complex PTSD (C-PTSD), and families looking for guidance on children’s ages and stages of development. I also offer practical, everyday support that helps family life feel more manageable.

I’m the mother of a four-year-old daughter, and my own breastfeeding journey has given me lived experience with the many sides of feeding a child. I bring that perspective to my work with care and without judgment, knowing that every parent’s experience and choices are their own.

I take time to understand your experiences, values, and goals. When you want them involved, I work alongside fathers, partners, and family members to create a safe, respectful dynamic guided by your needs and preferences. My goal is for you to feel heard, informed, and supported through both the expected and unexpected parts of your journey.

Practice Philosophy

I believe every family deserves to feel safe, supported, and deeply respected throughout their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. My role as a doula is to create a steady, grounding presence where clients can show up exactly as they are—without judgment, pressure, or expectation.

I approach care through a trauma-informed and culturally responsive lens, recognizing that each person’s experience, identity, and history shape how they move through birth and early parenthood. I prioritize emotional safety just as much as physical support, ensuring that every client feels heard, informed, and empowered to make the choices that are right for them.

I believe in meeting families where they are—whether they want hands-on guidance, quiet reassurance, or strong advocacy within their care team. My work is not to lead or direct, but to walk alongside, offering evidence-based information, intuitive support, and a calm, confident presence during both the expected and the unexpected.

Above all, I believe that when families feel supported, they feel capable—and that foundation can transform not only their birth experience, but their transition into parenthood.

Population Experience

I’m a trauma-informed, full-spectrum doula based in the South Bay. My own experience with birth led me to this work: I want families to enter birth feeling informed, heard, and supported. Through Modern Day Poppins, I offer calm, practical care throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenthood, always guided by each family’s needs and choices.
