Where Ladera Ranch families give birth
Ladera Ranch families are a short drive from both Saddleback in Laguna Hills and Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo, and Jenn supports planned home births as well.
Providence Mission Hospital
In Mission Viejo, the Mission Maternity Center welcomes around 3,000 babies a year and offers warm laboring tubs and hydrotherapy for unmedicated births, with CHOC's Level 3 NICU on-site. Jenn is experienced and at ease supporting births here.
Women's Hospital at Saddleback
MemorialCare's Women's Hospital in Laguna Hills has cared for families for more than 35 years and is on California's Maternity Honor Roll for keeping C-sections low in first-time births. Jenn knows the unit and the rhythm of birth there well.
Home and birth center
If you are planning a home birth or birth-center birth with a licensed midwife, Jenn supports you there too, bringing the same calm, hands-on presence alongside your clinical team.

"I loved having Jenn as my doula. Jenn is the counter pressure queen. After experiencing my first birth without a doula and then having her there for my second, it made a world of a difference. She was so encouraging, kept me in the right headspace, and so knowledgeable about positions to advance labor. I can't imagine giving birth without her now."
Let's talk about your Ladera Ranch birth
The free consultation is simply a conversation: your hopes, your questions, and how Jenn can support you. No pressure, no obligation, just a chance to see if she is the right fit for your family.
