Hiring a doula can be a wonderful addition to your birth at Sierra Natural Birth Center. Below are the preferred, professional doulas that we love and work well with. We encourage you to interview the different doulas to see who is the best fit for you.  Please note we do not have doulas on staff at Sierra Natural Birth Center. You will contract separately with a doula if you choose to hire one.

Kayleen Delgado – CBA

Hi! My name is Kayleen Delgado and I’m an AABC Certified Birth Assistant and a DONA trained doula. I absolutely love all things pregnancy and birth! I first learned about the role of a doula while preparing for the birth of my daughter at Sierra Natural Birth Canter, with Ellie as my midwife. My doula met with me and my husband a couple of times before the birth and was right beside me once labor started. She provided emotional support as well as physical comfort techniques, that lead to me having the birth experience I desired. Ever since then I have wanted to provide the same support and care, before, during, and after labor, that I was so blessed to receive. My heart for all women is that during the most beautiful and miraculous moment you would feel encouraged, safe, well-informed, and empowered to have the birth you desire. I have had the honor to serve at homebirths, hospital births, and births at SNBC. I now accept Medi-Cal for doula services. I currently live in Tuolumne, CA with my husband and two daughters. I look forward to hearing from you and serving you however I can! Call/text: (209) 352-4224 Email: kaydelgado2009@gmail.com

Tynesha Bennett – CFSD, CLD, CPD

Hello! My name is Tynesha and I am honored to be able to support birthing people and their families during this transformative time. My life experiences, including the birth of my two children and my challenges coexisting with pelvic floor dysfunction, have opened my eyes to the various ways we may not be fully supported within our current medical and social systems. This realization led me to pursue my training in birthwork, with a special emphasis on pelvic floor health. My role as a birthworker is, first and foremost, to listen to you! Each individual is whole and unique; I am here to honor your experiences, emotions and needs by providing unbiased, evidence-based information and continuous support. It is my sincere wish that you feel informed, heard, connected and nurtured on your journey!  I am a Certified Full Spectrum, Labor & Birth, and Postpartum birthworker (doula) and a Certified Pelvic Floor YogaTM Instructor. As a Full Spectrum birthworker, I am trained to support all reproductive experiences, including miscarriage, abortion, stillbirth, infant loss, adoption and fertility.  I offer informed and respectful support to all birthing people. I also now accept Medi-Cal clients. For more information or to arrange a free interview please visit www.rootconnectionsbirthwork.com or call 805-284-3834.
