8+ Years Experience San Diego + Virtual Evidence-Informed Care

Meet Ariel

Support that feels calm, clear, and grounded—before, during, and after birth.

My approach

Every family deserves a steady guide who listens deeply and makes decisions feel clear. I combine hands‑on comfort techniques with practical planning so you feel supported, prepared, and grounded.

Whether you want full birth support, postpartum care, or virtual planning, the goal is the same: more calm, more clarity, more confidence.

What you can expect

Evidence-informed guidance and clear options.
Partner coaching and comfort techniques.
Respect for your values, preferences, and care team.

Why I became a doula

My own journey into parenthood showed me how powerful steady, compassionate guidance can be. I became a doula to offer that calm presence—someone who listens, advocates, and helps you trust your instincts.

I support families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum so they feel seen, respected, and confident in their choices.
