My Story

My Story

My journey to becoming a Certified Postpartum Doula began during the COVID-19 pandemic, when hospitals still had strict visitor restrictions in place. At the time, my daughter was expecting her first baby, and the only way I would be allowed to support her in the delivery room was by becoming a certified doula.

What started as a way to be there for my daughter quickly became so much more.

As I completed my training and immersed myself in the doula community, I witnessed firsthand how many women were navigating pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery without the support they truly needed. I saw exhausted parents trying to do it all on their own, families struggling to find guidance, and mothers putting everyone else's needs before their own.

The experience opened my eyes to the incredible difference compassionate support can make during one of life's biggest transitions.

After spending years in a corporate career, I made the life-changing decision to follow my heart and dedicate myself to helping families. Today, I have the privilege of supporting parents as they welcome their babies, find their confidence, and create space for rest, healing, and connection.

As a mother, grandmother, and certified postpartum doula, I understand that every family's journey is unique. My goal is to provide nurturing, judgment-free support so parents feel empowered, cared for, and never alone during the postpartum season.

What began as a desire to support my daughter became a calling to support families throughout the Bay Area—and it is truly an honor to be part of their journey.

Caring for others has always come naturally to Daisy.

As the oldest sibling, she has been a helping hand and a constant source of support for her younger brother, who is nine years younger than she is. From a young age, she embraced the role of caregiver, learning the importance of patience, compassion, and showing up for the people she loves.

After watching her mother begin a career as a postpartum doula, Daisy was inspired by the meaningful impact doulas have on families during such an important season of life. Seeing firsthand how parents thrive when they have support, encouragement, and guidance motivated her to pursue her own certification and continue the tradition of caring for others.

Certified since 2021, Daisy brings a calm presence, a nurturing heart, and a genuine passion for helping families feel supported and confident as they adjust to life with a new baby.

As part of Belita Bee Doula Care, Daisy is committed to providing compassionate, nonjudgmental support and helping families create a positive postpartum experience. She believes every parent deserves a village, and she is honored to be part of that village for the families she serves.

Cindy is a Certified Postpartum Doula and proud mother of two wonderful children.

My journey into postpartum support began through my own experience as a mother. Raising my children taught me firsthand how rewarding—and sometimes overwhelming—the postpartum period can be. It also showed me the incredible value of having support, encouragement, and a village to lean on during those early months of parenthood.

Inspired by the work of my family members, Berenice and Daisy, I became a certified postpartum doula in 2021 and have spent the past several years supporting families as they navigate life with a new baby. I am passionate about helping parents feel confident, rested, and cared for while creating a nurturing environment where both parents and babies can thrive.

I believe every family deserves compassionate, judgment-free support during this special season of life. Whether it's providing newborn care, emotional support, or simply offering a reassuring presence, my goal is to help families find their rhythm and feel empowered in their parenting journey.

It is truly an honor to walk alongside families during such a meaningful chapter, and I look forward to being part of your village.
