Raquel — Postpartum Doula & Sleep Consultant in the Bay Area

Caring with love, supporting with empathy, and welcoming every family with heart.

About Me

Originally from Brazil, Raquel is a dedicated postpartum doula who has been living in the Bay Area for six years. With nearly a decade of experience as a nanny, she has lovingly cared for toddlers, infants, and school-aged children. Known for her warm, empathetic, and trustworthy nature, she brings a deep sense of integrity and communication to every family she supports.

Back in Brazil, she earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting along with two MBAs in accounting and finance. However, upon moving to the United States, she felt drawn back to her true passion—working with newborns and supporting families during the early stages of parenthood.

As a postpartum doula and sleeping training consultant, she offers more than just practical help—she brings heartfelt care, respect for each child as an individual, and a calming presence to the homes she serves. She is fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, has her own reliable transportation, is pet-friendly, and proudly maintains a stigma-free approach.

She would be happy to connect with your family to share more about her background, provide references, and discuss how she can support your unique journey into parenthood. Her greatest joy in life? Loving and caring for people with all her heart.
