Now, through our partnership with Christy, families also have access to a midwife whose model of care reflects so much of what we value. Christy provides concierge-style midwifery care with a hospital-based approach that is centered on safety, informed decision-making, and personalized support. Her practice is built around serving women with unrushed prenatal care, hands-on labor support, postpartum follow-up, and a more relationship-based experience than most families are used to in standard maternity care.

How We Support You

This is what makes the partnership so special. At Lotus Doula Tribe, our role is to support the emotional, physical, and practical side of the journey.

• Customized childbirth education and birth planning
• Prenatal support including nutrition, movement, yoga, meditation, and sound bath ceremonies
• Hands-on labor support with environment setup, massage, positioning, and partner guidance
• Postpartum care including newborn guidance, breastfeeding support, nourishing meals, healing teas, belly binding, massage, sibling support, and overnight care

Christy’s Role as Your Midwife

Christy’s role is different, and that is exactly why this works so beautifully. As a midwife, she provides the medical care. She monitors the health of mother and baby, manages prenatal and postpartum care, supports labor and delivery, and bridges the mother’s preferences with the safety and resources of a hospital setting.

Her care is focused on helping women feel respected, safe, confident, comforted, empowered, and informed throughout their journey.

The Best of Both Worlds

Together, this means our clients do not have to choose between being deeply supported and expertly cared for. They can have both.

For many women, this is the ultimate setup. They want the warmth, presence, and continuity of a doula, along with a provider who shares their values and offers a personalized medical experience. They want holistic, grounded birth preparation, a calm and supported environment during labor, and postpartum care that continues well beyond the hospital.

This partnership makes that possible. The Lotus Doula Tribe model is built around whole-family support and team continuity, while Christy’s model is centered on individualized midwifery care that honors each mother’s voice.

A More Intentional Hospital Birth Experience

We are especially excited about what this means for families who want a more intentional birth in a hospital setting. Many mothers are seeking a birth that feels calm, physiologic, informed, and supported, while still having access to medical resources if needed. That middle ground can be difficult to find—but Christy’s practice is designed to bridge that gap.

Serving Our Community

This partnership serves families throughout Ventura County, Conejo Valley, West Los Angeles, Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village, Agoura Hills, Oak Park, Newbury Park, Simi Valley, Moorpark, Calabasas, Malibu, Woodland Hills, West Hills, Camarillo, Oxnard, Ventura, Santa Paula, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and surrounding communities.

The Heart of the Dream Team

Most of all, this partnership reflects what we want every mother to feel when she builds her birth team:

“I am not doing this alone. I have people who know me, people who believe in me, and people who are here to care for me from every angle.”

That is the heart of the Dream Team.

If you are looking for a birth experience that blends holistic doula care with personalized midwifery support, we would be honored to walk that path with you.
