      <image:caption>www.BirthChemistry.com corilynngentry@gmail.com 831.484.4358 Hi, my name is Cori Gentry. I’m a certified childbirth educator, evidence based birth instructor emeritus, and full-spectrum doula supporting all types of families in all types of births since 2012. My own six births have taught me that the decisions parents make in childbirth are personal and unique to them. I believe parents deserve to learn their options from an objective, experienced instructor, and receive compassionate support throughout that process. Today we can ask google anything we need about pregnancy and birth, why bother with a birth class? You wouldn’t join the starting line of a race without ever hitting the track to prepare. If you did, you would be in for a rough experience. Birth is no different. You can influence your birth experience by how you prepare for it. Birth Chemistry was created by myself and local midwives to help parents achieve a positive birth experience at the hospital, a birth center, or at home. Complimentary concierge maternity services are included with all class packages.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Myofunctional Therapy breathebythebay.com diane@breathebythebay.com 831.238.6471 3152 Forest Lake Road, Pebble Beach I have worked as a Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) for over 20 years. Most of my time has been spent practicing in Carmel and Monterey, California. I studied Biology at the University of California at Santa Barbara and graduated from the University of California at San Francisco in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Dental Hygiene. As a dental hygienist and mom, I have seen firsthand the negative effects that poor tongue posture and improper lip seal have on the mouth and the body as a whole. My youngest son had a significant tongue-tie as an infant and toddler. In 2010 I attended a dental hygiene course and learned the importance of proper tongue placement and how this impacts facial growth patterns in young children. Due to my son’s facial growth pattern I quickly diagnosed a tongue-tie. This personal knowledge and diagnosis lead me to begin my studies with Sarah Hornsby at Faceology and the AOMT. I’m now a certified orofacial myofunctional therapist. My goals are to help patients with mouth breathing habits and other orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD) through a series of therapeutic exercises. I believe in a holistic, whole-body approach to medicine which recognizes that the health of the mouth directly relates to the overall health of the body. With my treatment programs, you can put mouth breathing related health issues behind and live a happier and healthier life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Erika Monet Doula Services Erika Ledin Doula ledinerika305@gmail.com 831.242.0211 I Love Helping People. Becoming a doula feels like my personal calling. It is a work of the heart. Since I was a small child, I repeatedly watched the BBC series, “Call The Midwives” with fascination over the miracle of birth with all its twists and turns, love and pain, culminating in the little bundle of baby crying, “Hello world!” I realize becoming a doula requires in-depth training, sensitivity and patience. You’re serving mothers with physical, emotional, and educational support.  Essentially, you are a childbirth companion to the family concerned.  That requires a calm person who can multitask and exude confidence in the process.  At my own birth I was separated from my biological mother and placed into foster care in Sacramento. Fortunately, I was adopted into a loving family. Perhaps my drive to be a doula has been charged by my passion to make the passage to life for the mother and child as lovely and healing as possible. I learned about the Sierra Childbirth Institute from one of your graduates, Michelle Nizza, who has a midwifery clinic in Monterey called “Mums the Word.” She is waiting for me to get the training I need so I can assist her in her work, attending live births, and participating in what goes on from start to finish with pregnancy and birth. Now after 2 years of training. I am officially certified and ready to connect with this beautiful community.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>doulaestefani@parentingconnectionmc.org Hi I am Estefani, and I am a certified doula. I’m a mother of three wonderful children, ages 6, 5, and 1. I have personally experienced both a C-section and a VBAC, which deepened my passion for supporting families in advocating for their birth choices. After facing postpartum depression following my first C-section, I became determined to pursue a VBAC, and the empowerment I felt afterward is something I hope every family can experience, whether it’s their first child or not. As a Christian doula, I also offer optional support through prayer and worship for those who share my faith.</image:caption>

My birthwork journey began after my first child was born in 2003 with the invaluable support of a doula. A spark was lit, and soon after my second birth, I completed my doula training. Now, as a mother of four, I continue to offer nurturing support through postpartum care (especially overnights), lactation guidance, tuck-in services, and parent coaching. I believe in shared experiences, laughter, and holding space without judgment. Parenting is beautiful, but also deeply challenging, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I co-founded Mid Drift Movement, a nonprofit changing the conversation around postpartum bodies and expectations through workshops and a documentary series. I joyfully support all families: LGBTQIA, adoptive, surrogate, multiples, and choice parents. Wherever you are on your journey, I’m here to walk beside you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>doulaestefani@parentingconnectionmc.org Hola, soy Estefani y soy doula certificada. Soy madre de tres hijos maravillosos de 6, 5 y 1 año. He vivido la experiencia de una cesárea y de un parto vaginal después de una cesárea (PVDC), lo que ha fortalecido mi pasión por apoyar a las familias para que defiendan sus decisiones sobre el parto. Después de sufrir depresión posparto tras mi primera cesárea, me propuse tener un PVDC, y el empoderamiento que sentí después es algo que deseo que todas las familias experimenten, ya sea con su primer hijo o no. Como doula cristiana, también ofrezco apoyo opcional a través de la oración y la alabanza para quienes comparten mi fe.</image:caption>
