Postpartum Doula Recommendations
First time parents with a 7 week old. Looking for recommendations for a doula to spend the day with us and let us know what we are doing wrong and how we can best look after baby and ourselves. Need advice on sleep. Living in the Elmwood area of Berkeley.

Hippiedippiedoula aka Nikole is a treasure! I worked with her postpartum and absolutely love her
Hello! I cannot recommend postpartum doula Jenny Goyne enough. She is such a kind, quiet, calming and very knowledgeable presence. And she was so reliable! She has a linkedIn profile, but I'd be happy to give you more info if you would like to message me. Best of luck. :) -Ursula
I recommend contacting Golden Gate Doulas - they are WONDERFUL and have all kinds of doula options, as well as ongoing classes and resources once you're a client :)

I have heard good things about Bay Area Night Doulas for getting connected with postpartum doula support: https://bayareanightdoulas.com/
We're working with Birth Realm and we absolutely love them! I don't know if they have availability on short notice, but it would be worth asking.
