Find Doula Jobs in Oakland, CA

Kaiser for giving birth and I have medical insurance. This is also my first baby

Daytime postpartum doula needed in Trestle Glen neighborhood of Oakland. Starts ASAP till mid-November, 2 days a week, hours flexible. Needs include household help (laundry, dishes, tidying), playing with 3-yo sibling, infant care, meal prep, occasional grocery runs. Funded through Carrot.

This is my first pregnancy, and I am planning a hospital birth in the Bay Area. I am looking for a birth doula who can educate my husband and me about our options and help me develop a birth plan based on my goals and circumstances. I have not yet decided whether I want an epidural or an unmedicated birth, so I would like someone who provides balanced, evidence-based information without pushing one particular type of birth. During labor, I would like support with breathing, relaxation, movement, different labor and pushing positions, massage, counterpressure, and other comfort techniques. I also want someone who will actively involve my husband, teach him how to support me, and help both of us remain calm and understand what is happening. It would be helpful if the doula offered prenatal meetings to practice labor positions and comfort techniques and discuss interventions such as induction, epidurals, assisted delivery, and Cesarean birth. Experience supporting hospital births, inductions, epidurals, unmedicated labor, and unexpected changes is important to me. I am also interested in pregnancy-safe exercises and pelvic-floor and birth preparation. Please let me know if this is part of your training and services, or if you collaborate with a pelvic-floor physical therapist. I am looking for someone warm, practical, nonjudgmental, and comfortable helping me ask questions and communicate my preferences to the medical team while remaining flexible if the safest plan changes.

’m looking for a night doula and received your information through the UHC network. My partner and I are located in the Civic Center area, and we are expecting our baby in April 2027. I’m reaching out to see whether you may have availability around our due date and to learn more about your overnight-support services. In particular, could you share your typical overnight schedule, rates or package options, minimum commitment, and what is generally included during a shift? We are still determining exactly how many nights per week we will need, but are hoping to find someone who can help us get rest while offering practical newborn-care support and guidance during the early weeks. Our budget is around $1200. If you may be available, I’d love to schedule a brief introductory call to learn more about your approach and see whether we might be a fit.
