Where San Clemente families give birth
Most San Clemente families deliver a short drive up the 5 at the Women's Hospital at Saddleback in Laguna Hills or Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo, and Jenn also supports planned home births right here in town.
Providence Mission Hospital
A short drive up the 5 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
A little further up the 5 in Laguna Hills, 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
Right here in San Clemente, 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.
A doula who is close when it counts
From 37 to 42 weeks Jenn is on call for you, and because she lives in San Clemente she is only minutes away when early labor begins. That means no wondering whether your doula will make it in time: she is already close to home.

Trusted by Orange County families
"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."
