Prenatal Care + Doula Partnership · Murrieta, CA
Midwifery Prenatal Care, Paired With a Doula Who Never Leaves Your Side
A holistic birth experience - built on licensed midwifery care and continuous doula support.
Our Prenatal Care + Doula Partnership Program gives you both: licensed midwifery prenatal care built around a holistic birth experience, paired with a dedicated doula who attends your prenatal visits, follows you into the hospital for labor and delivery, and stays with you through postpartum.
Comprehensive, Continuous Care
From Your First Visit Through the Fourth Trimester
Prenatal care doesn't have to mean choosing between the safety of medical oversight and the support of someone who truly knows your birth story. This program pairs you with one midwife and one doula, working together, so your care never feels disconnected.
Your doula partners with you starting in the prenatal period - not on the day of labor. She's in the room at your prenatal visits, so she knows your history, your preferences, and your birth plan firsthand.
How the Program Works
One Care Team, Every Step of the Way
Midwifery-Led Prenatal Care
You're seen by Tayna Chessman, a California Licensed Midwife (LM #784, CPM), for every prenatal visit - not a rotating cast of providers. Visits are unhurried, evidence-based, and centered on your questions and your goals.
A Doula Matched to You
Your doula joins you at prenatal visits, follows you into the hospital for labor and delivery, and continues supporting you through postpartum - including lactation, newborn care, and continued maternal mental health support.
Same Labs. Same Schedule. More Time.
We run the same prenatal labs and diagnostic testing as a standard OB practice, on the same OB visit schedule. The difference isn't in what's medically covered - it's in how much time you get to actually be heard.
