I am currently putting the finishing touches on my advanced sleep support training to ensure I’m giving you the most evidence-based, up-to-date guidance possible. I expect to open my calendar for The Full Bloom and The Fog-Lifter packages by January/Winter 2027.
I see Sleep Coaching is "Coming Soon"—when can I officially book?
01.
Great question! Sleep Shaping (0–4 months) is all about gentle rhythms, setting up the perfect environment, and working with your newborn’s natural biology. It’s not "training", it’s setting the foundation. Sleep Coaching (5-6 months+) is for when your baby is developmentally ready to learn more independent sleep skills.
What’s the difference between "Sleep Shaping" and "Sleep Coaching"?
02.
For the Mabuhay Oasis (my in-home, overnight support), yes—I stay local to SF. However, my First Light plans and The Fog-Lifter consults are 100% virtual. As long as you have an internet connection and a phone, I can help you find your way out of the sleep fog from anywhere.
Do I have to live in San Francisco to work with you?
03.
Not at all. My approach, like everything at Mabuhay Doula Co, is responsive and evidence-based. I believe in looking at the whole picture: feeding, temperament, and family lifestyle. We will find a method that feels sustainable for you and respectful to your baby. No "one-size-fits-all" plans here!
Is your sleep philosophy "Cry It Out"?
04.
Absolutely! In fact, most of my clients start with my postpartum doula services and then transition into sleep shaping as their baby grows. It’s actually a great way for me to get to know your baby’s specific personality early on, which makes coaching much smoother down the road.
Can I book you for Doula care now and Sleep Coaching later?
05.
I feel you! While the full coaching plans are coming soon, I am still available for postpartum doula shifts where I can help you get a solid hours of rest. Also, keep an eye on my Community Resources—I’ll be sharing my favorite sleep consultants in the bay while I finish up my certification!
I’m exhausted right now. What can I do while I wait for your packages to launch?

Enneagram
I'm a certified postpartum doula through Childbirth Professionals International, a certified Newborn Care Specialist from the Newborn Care Training Academy (NCTA), and CPR certified. I'm currently pursuing my IBCLC and sleep consultant certifications.
My approach is rooted in respectful, attachment-focused care, but my best education comes from working with real families, across different backgrounds, with babies and varying needs. I've supported families through postpartum depression, feeding struggles, and sleepless nights. My job is to be a resource and part of your care team, offering information without pressure. Families take what works and leave the rest—no judgment, ever—just support.
