I am fully vaccinated. Most Bay Area hospitals allow a second support person. I am offering in person support at home and at the hospital. If you plan to give birth in a hospital that still allows only 1 support person, I offer support in person at home then switch to virtual.
All interviews are now done via Zoom. Classes, Breech consults, prenatal and postpartum sessions are available in person (available for indoor or outdoor meetings, masks, distancing as needed).
Please reach out to get as much support and information as it is possible to get while sheltering in place.
Contact me about my services and schedule appointments:

"Words cannot express how grateful I am for all your support throughout this experience. You were a huge help to me during my birth and I am truly touched by your warmth and kindness. You really went above and beyond to make this a very special and memorable time for me. You are a remarkable doula with a huge heart and beautiful spirit. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! You are a beautiful lady, I am blessed to have met you!"

“Ilka is one of the most caring, compassionate people I have met in my life. She was a great support throughout my pregnancy, offering to share her knowledge and resources..."
