As a Newport Beach maternity photographer I’m constantly asked about local recommendations and I know how important and sometimes challenging it can be bringing home a new baby. It can be a intense and sometimes requires some much needed help. Many of the families I have worked with in the Newport Beach and Orange County area choose to work with a doula to get personalized support during pregnancy, and postpartum. A doula offers emotional encouragement, physical comfort and needed knowledge during the process. Picking the right doula can be so helpful and make for a less stressful process!
Today I’m sharing five of the best doulas and newborn care specialists in the Newport Beach area that local families are loving — whether you’re expecting your first baby or adding to your family.
