Through the process of attending hundreds of births, I’ve learned that each and every one brings its own magical power. This is the power of transformation – not only for the mother and baby, but for the whole family.
As a doula, I love supporting women and providing the sense of safety they need. My goal is to genuinely build a deep connection with you throughout your pregnancy, ensuring you receive unwavering care that paves the way for a positive birthing experience. I believe in fostering a sense of empowerment, respect and informed-decision making throughout your pregnancy and birth. I am here to listen, to guide when needed and to hold space for you while honoring your unique journey as you welcome your baby to the world.

It was as if my sister was there, she was so kind and gentle we immediately clicked. Truly my labor angel! She is so knowledgeable and relatable and empowered me so much both pre-natal and during labor and delivery. I am so thankful I got to have her by my side

"For over 7 years I’ve had the pleasure of working with Amie Ray. Her deep love and commitment for helping women in childbirth has made her one of the best birth assistants in the greater Los Angeles area. Any woman who is fortunate to have Amie at their birth will realize her experience and knowledge and her depth of caring will single her out as a cut above the rest
"She is an outstanding doula. You will not regret having Amie as your doula at your birth."
Christina
The moment she came in the room I felt something deep inside of me relax. I felt held and seen and safe and I just wanted her near me. I will always feel that she was an earth angel for us
"I will be forever thankful for Amie and her support both during the birth of my daughter and in the weeks that followed

She guided me through all the unknowns of pregnancy and made sure I was educated, prepared and well cared for. Having her at my birth was the biggest gift I could give myself! She physically and mentally guided me through labor and delivery. She was there for me through all the ups and downs of my postpartum and became a lifelong friend.

Michelle, Midwife, CPM, ND
Amie is the BEST. She is passionate, dedicated, reliable, skilled, and FUN...As an assistant, she is meeting parents for the first time at the birth--even then, the parents always tell me afterwards how lovely and helpful she was, and how much they appreciated her presence. She's respectful of every family. I always feel like she has my back, and I never worry that she's going to miss something important--she pays attention to the details, which matters in birth. I have had many assistants over the years and Amie is definitely in the top tier.
She's a bit of a birth junkie, in the best possible way.

She stepped in to perform the work of our Doula towards the end of my pregnancy and immediately rose to the occasion, providing valuable care, insight, information, encouragement and advice. She was available and willing to talk or help every time we needed her. She came to the hospital very early in the morning when I was being induced and worked so well with my husband. She truly performed the role of a servant in administering to my every need —physical and emotional.
I cannot recommend her highly enough for the responsibility of doula. Look no further.

I felt so comforted through moments of question in pregnancy and so supported through the process of my birth. During labor she helped me navigate through tough moments to honor my birth plan. Her love and care has carried through to postpartum as my husband and I adjusted to life at home with our little one and the physical healing that I faced. I feel so grateful to have had Amie by our side and to be able to call her a friend today.
