We welcome new members!
We are a group of Doulas working in the East Bay who have chosen to come together for the purpose of
providing a professional front to the medical and local community. We also support our local Doula community through peer review and informational speakers for the purpose of learning and professional development. All Doulas are welcome to attend our meetings.
