Seeking night doula for September
I realize I'm a bit late to the game but we're looking for nighttime doula support in September. Of course, we've gotten many wonderful leads from this community already, but many are booked up.
If anyone happens to know a doula that still has some availability in September, please do let me know! Thank you so much.

Have you checked out Stork & Sprout? We used them in Nov/Dec 2022 after the arrival of my second. They are a network of night doulas around the Bay Area and my recollection is that they were quite flexible on last minute booking/availability since they’ve got a deep bench. I found them super easy to work with.
Hi there! Sharing the contact information of the night doula I had used below. She was wonderful and may have some days in September. I live in Alamo, and I believe she helps families all around east bay. She can also connect you to others if she is not available as she is part of a doula group. Her name is Beverly Harper and her number is 415-519-9383.
Thanks!

Hi there,
We just went through the process of getting connected to doulas through Brilliant Births. It's a collective of birth and night doulas. There is an intake person that sends a message to their collective describing the family's needs and then the doulas respond if they are interested. We were contacted by 4 night doulas for work in September! The person we liked the most was named Alexandra Goldsmith alex [at] brilliantbirths.com. For an intake call Contact — Brilliant Births . Good luck finding someone!
We worked with Thami (said like Tami) in December and she was wonderful and available - we extended our time with her twice. She was referred to us by our amazing birth doula, Renata, who also trained Thami. You’re welcome to text or call Thami- 510.640.7337
Hi, our former nanny Letícia transitioned a few years ago to a postpartum doula and may have availability in September! She’s absolutely lovely and has a very calm yet confident presence. Her website is here: https://plumeriadoula.com . Wishing you a smooth delivery!
We worked with Che for our newborn and she is so amazing.
