Baby & Child Mental Health

They work for themselves for the most part. But we think it’s great to know who you can reach out to, so here are some of the doulas that work in Mendocino.Click here to find a local doula
Doulas visit for an hour or longer during most prenatal doula visits to share information about birth choices and help prepare you for the birthing process.
Doulas join you and stay with you during labor until your baby is born. They help parents with comfort and movement, encourage the birthing person with their goals, amplify parent voice in birth, and stay an hour or two after the birth supporting your family.

As your Doula, I will come to your home free of charge for an initial intake and to feel if the match is right for you. From there, we will create a Doula/client plan, meet an additional time, and I remain available on call 24/7 until your labor begins.

Born and raised in Ukiah, CA., I’m a Mendocino County local who has raised my four children here with my husband. For the past 25 years, I’ve had the honor of serving as a Doula across Mendocino County, walking alongside families through some of the most transformative moments of their lives. I’m currently expanding my services to include lactation support, believing deeply in the power of breastfeeding to give babies the best start in life. I am proud to serve the greater communities of Lake and Mendocino Counties and to increase access by accepting Medical and Partnership Healthplan of California insurance. Whether supporting clients prenatally, through birth, or during the postpartum period, I strive to ensure each family has a memorable and cherished experience. I value meeting my clients where they are in their pregnancy journey, and it would be an honor to support you -or your loved one- whenever you feel the need.

I see our bodies as the keepers of our stories. To work with it intentionally and in an informed way, can be like speaking another language. Each body I work with being a dialect of it’s own. As I continue to learn the nuances of the way fascia, the nervous system, and our tissues communicate (with us and each body system), I feel more honored to support my clients’ experience of ease within them.

Hi, I’m Mandela. I’m a certified postpartum doula, somatic empowerment coach, and mom to a toddler, so I know how tender and overwhelming it can be after bringing a new baby home. I provide nonjudgmental support to families across Mendocino County, including care during and after miscarriage or abortion, with many insurance plans covering visits. My support is tailored to what your family needs most, whether that’s holding the baby so you can rest or shower, preparing meals, caring for siblings, helping with household tasks, or simply being a calm presence to talk to. My goal is to help parents feel cared for, supported, and empowered so you don’t have to navigate this season alone.
