Hi, I’m Alyssa,
I am a wife, mother to 3 spunky munchkins, a midwife assistant and birth and postpartum doula. My passion for birth work really began when I was 12 years old and I attended the birth of my first nephew, I remember being swelled with emotion and thinking to myself, “That was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen!” I then found myself supporting friends and family during their pregnancy and birth journeys over the years and eventually became certified so that I could support even more families! After my pregnancy and hospital birth with my oldest daughter, it sparked a deep interest in learning about more individualized and holistic care. This brought me to researching out of hospital birth options which lead me to seeking care from homebirth midwives when I became pregnant with my second daughter. After her homebirth, I knew that I wanted to be more involved in the midwifery model of care so I began working as part of the admin staff at California Birth Center. Soon after, I became pregnant with my son and after having him at the birth center, I had a great desire to train as a midwife assistant and provide the same level of care I had received and support families as they welcome their little ones into the world.
Every family needs a village and support system so as a birth and postpartum doula, I look forward to being a part of that village for the families I serve and supporting them as they navigate their beautiful new journeys.
