Welcome to the magical world of babies. I am Rae Lynn, and as my business name states, I love babies, and that is what drew me to this work. I am the mother of three daughters, and  nana to three very precious grandchildren.

As a postpartum doula, my desire is to support and enhance the development of a loving, bonded relationship between the newborn and its mother and father. I do this by bringing into the family's home my knowledge and experience, and a willingness to serve in many different capacities.

My intention is to guide, to assist, to support, to listen, to help with breastfeeding, and to supply resources whenever needed or wanted. Ultimately, I want new parents to gain confidence in themselves as I encourage them to trust their own instincts and abilities.

Additionally, I provide nightcare for infants, both singletons and multiples.  I have experience with colicky babies and those coming home with monitors.

I completed my postpartum doula training in 2000, at Blossom Birth Center in Palo Alto, CA., and have been privileged to work with many families of newborns since that time.  Call me at 530-878-2181 or email me at luvbabys@cwnet.com.  Allow me to be of help at this most blessed of times.
