“Cultures throughout the world have long recognized there is something magical about the first six weeks of life. Many cultures have a custom by which the mother is given lots of support and rest and is freed from all responsibilities except learning to care for… her baby.
Some cultures refer to this as ‘one moon cycle’ others as ‘the first forty days.’”

– The Breastfeeding Book, By Martha Sears, William Sears

One Moon Doula Services is proud to provide families with the highest quality of postpartum doula support available in our area and is honored to be of service to you during this incredibly important time in your family’s life. We are the longest-standing Doula Agency in San Diego County, and currently serve families in both San Diego County, Orange County, Santa Barbara County, Ventura County, and Los Angeles County.

At One Moon Doula Services, we believe that the weeks and months following the birth of a newborn is a fragile and fleeting time. Parents are often overwhelmed with lack of sleep, the newness of their roles and responsibilities, and the seemingly constant needs of the newborn/s. While conditions usually rapidly improve after the first few weeks, getting enough sleep and support in the meantime can make all the difference between enjoying those early days and simply enduring them. It is our mission to help you envision what you desire for your family’s transition, and to provide a range of services to protect and promote that experience.

Whether you are looking for overnight support, meal preparation and light housekeeping, sibling support and household organization, breastfeeding or bottle-feeding information, or education about newborn development and postpartum health, our doulas are poised and ready to be your resource and your guide. We even have professional infant sleep coaches as part of our vetted network! Non-judgmental, professional, and compassionate support is what we are all about.
