Jenni Coker (she/her) is a DONA International trained Birth Doula and mama in Orange County, California with a passion for holistic care. She believes in the importance of a supportive community, mind-body wellness, informed consent, trauma-informed care, evidence-based practices, aware parenting, and inclusive, accessible, non-judgmental support for all birthing people. She’s always looking for opportunities to nurture those around her.
Her interest in birth and babies began in childhood, but it was her own pregnancy and birth in 2015 that really ignited her passion for birth-work. Like many expectant parents, Jenni researched tirelessly, educating herself on her options regarding pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, and beyond. Through the trusting relationships she built with her midwife and birth doula, she learned firsthand how vital a caring and supportive team is to a positive birth experience. She feels that the type of support she received should be available to all birthing people and their families.
Jenni recognizes childbirth as a deeply intimate, personal, life-altering experience and views the birthing person as powerful, intuitive, and capable. She is passionate about providing emotional, physical, and informational support and encouragement so that families feel empowered throughout the entire process. She holds a deep reverence for birth and feels truly grateful to each family who allows her to hold space for them on their transformational journey.
Sarah Smith (she/her) is a DONA International trained Postpartum Doula who resides in Orange County, CA. After the birth of her son in 2018, she realized how many families lack the support they desperately need during the delicate postpartum period. Through her own experience, she developed a passion for meeting the needs of families at the earliest stage of parenthood. It is a deep belief of hers that every family deserves to have a good start, and that with proper support and education, every family can thrive.
Over the last 10 years she has been meeting the needs of families through her work as a nanny. She has a passion for education, conscious & gentle parenting, holistic living, and community support. Throughout the many years she has devoted to caring for families, she’s become a firm believer that not every family has the same needs, and there is no “one size fits all” when it comes to any aspect of parenting.
Sarah believes that with the support of a postpartum doula, through education and empowerment, every family can learn to trust their instincts and make the best choices for their families. She is excited to meet with you and be a part of your sacred journey.
