Hello I’m Sharonda Oldham and I am a postpartum doula in the San Francisco California area. I have over 15 years of experience and a love for families that are entering into a whole new world with a newborn. I love to listen and see what the family’s needs are and then assist with a care plan not just walk in and take over. I pride myself on providing unbiased care. I am knowledgeable, dependable, loyal, punctual, loving and kind.

Sharonda looked after my grandson from birth til about 18 months old. She is a very experienced and knowledgeable baby whisperer. She helped guide the new mom and dad in the ways of babydom and she was sweet and loving to my grandson. She has the confidence and knowledge born of years of experience that together spell kind reassurance and wisdom.

We brought on Sharonda as a night nurse for our baby’s first two months and when I say I could not have done it without her, I mean it. Not only is she a very knowledgable, caring, and disciplined baby nurse, she has a wonderful sense of humor and attitude. She was reassuring in how we were navigating parenthood by helping us to establish routines and set expectations for ourselves and our baby. Sharonda is a warm presence and we look forward to keeping her in our lives both socially and potentially for future children.

Sharonda was the newborn care expert of my dreams. Her extensive experience, calm attitude, patience, and sense of humor were all indispensable as I navigated my daughter’s first few months of life. I appreciated how Sharonda blended practical assistance (for example, necessary but un-glamorous things like bottle washing and diaper rash advice) with deep expertise in baby led weaning and childhood development. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Sharonda again.
