Before I Joined the Birth World:
I have previous experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant working at a hospital for a year. I was enrolled and attended nursing school at CSULA while I kick started my doula career until I realized doula and lactation work are my ultimate passions. My role as a doula is non-medical, but I do have a medical background. I volunteered in the NICU as a nursing volunteer at UCLA where I worked with newborn and premature babies during the time frame of my nursing pursuit. Further, I have been working with babies for the last 17 years, including employment as a live-in nanny for 4 young children, then for twin infants before training as a doula.
