Hi, i'm Jacquelyn
A certified birth doula, postpartum doula, lactation support consultant, and placenta encapsulation specialist proudly serving Orange County and the greater surrounding areas. I am a mother of four. My passion for birth work was born from my own transformative birth experiences and a deep desire to support other women in reclaiming their strength and power during motherhood.
Through personalized, grounded care, I walk alongside you through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum – offering emotional support, education, and hands-on help with a nurturing, holistic touch. I believe every woman deserves to feel heard, honored, and supported during one of the most sacred seasons of her life.

Jacquelyn Mota

Testimonial
My first birth was super traumatic and I honestly didn’t know if I could do it again. But Jacquelyn made me feel safe and heard every step of the way. This birth was so different—it was redemptive. I actually feel proud of my birth story now.
