Rebecca
Christian, CPD
I'm a San Diego native passionate about birth, wine, nerd things, traveling, women's empowerment and reproductive justice. I am a Catholic Christian doula, and work with women of all backgrounds. I tell you about my faith because it informs my philosophy on how I think women and babies should be treated: with respect, awe, and reverence.
Working with new parents is a gift in my life. Right now, I'm a doula full-time, but I'm working toward becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).
