Julia Nurse

Birth and Postpartum Doula

Welcome!

I am a birth and postpartum doula living in San Francisco and servicing the Bay Area. As a doula, my goal is to support families through the transformative journey of childbirth and provide physical, emotional, and informational support during pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period. I believe that every birth is unique and should be honored and respected. I support families in all births from unmedicated vaginal births, to VBAC, to planned cesarean birth using evidenced based care as well as holistic methods and ritual and ceremony.

Testimonials

"I think the thing that stood out to me was how minimal and effortless her interventions seemed...At every stage, she was a calm and steady presence."

"Julia Nurse was an incredible doula. We are SO grateful that we were able to have her there at the birth of our first child. When she came into the birthing room, I had gotten totally shaken out of my birth zone by the transition to the hospital and she re-centered me and my partner. I think if she hadn't been there, I would not have been able to do the unmedicated birth that I had hoped for. With her support, I was able to work through the contractions have a really wonderful experience. She not only helped me, but helped my partner help me...I think the thing that stood out to me was how minimal and effortless her interventions seemed...At every stage, she was a calm and steady presence. Thank you for everything, Julia."
