About me
I hold each new mother as tenderly as their precious newborns. I am a certified postpartum night doula offering physical and emotional support to families primarily in the Lamorinda/Diablo Valley area. I have been supporting families since 2015 and have been joined by a few other doulas to create a great team! Whether we have two doulas cover you on separate nights or just fill in for each other if needed, the transition will be seamless. You are our top priority and we cover all details with each other.
Every mother is worth it and we believe support shouldn't end at birth. We are here to make this special bonding time more relaxing for the entire family.

Bev Harper and her husband Scott have raised three boys in the Lamorinda area and appreciate the joys and challenges that come with each stage of parenthood. After over 8 years of teaching/night doula both part time, she "retired" in 2022 from teaching preschool to pursue her passion of supporting new families in the transition of welcoming new babies into their homes. Her experience with twins, full family support, and sleep "shaping" will make her invaluable to your family. Bev is CPR/First Aid and Postpartum Doula certified, fully vaccinated and fingerprinted via Life Scan.

Testimonials
"Bev was our night nanny for 6 months with our twins and we couldn't have survived without her! Kristi joined her in supporting our family after a few months. In that time, they both became a part of our family. We had no idea what to expect with hiring a night doula but it was the best decision! They were extremely loving to our girls, took amazing care of me, helped a ton around the house, were full of awesome suggestions and even helped our 5 year old get back to bed when she would make surprise appearances in the middle of the night. Bev and Kristi are truly a gift to us and we don't know what we would've done without them!"

"I had my second child during Covid and had never felt more isolated. Bev came into our lives and literally saved me. She is so caring and helpful, she is like family. She made such an impact to our lives that she was one of the first people I called when I found out I was pregnant with our third. I would've kept Bev indefinitely if I could."
Christina F. (Lamorinda)
"During a tender, transitional time of our family welcoming our second child into the world, Bev provided warm, caring, love for our daughter and support for both myself and my husband. Every night Bev arrived, she brought a calming, loving energy with her that gave me ease in knowing that my daughter was in the best care and allowed my husband and I to sleep peacefully. Although my daughter is now a year and a half, I still keep in touch with Bev and will always be grateful for her as a night doula, as a wonderful human, and now as a dear friend."

Erica & David B. (Lamorinda)
"Bev and her team have been a wonderful resource for us in welcoming our first daughter. Beyond providing exceptional nighttime child care, their range of knowledge about newborn care overall and emotional and physical support made a substantial impact in creating a positive and sustainable home environment. Months in, they've truly felt like extensions of our family. We enthusiastically recommend their care."
Kristin & Matt G. (Concord)
"Bev's team has been an absolute blessing as our family embarks on the new journey of being first time parents. Not only are they wonderful with our son, they bring a sense of warmth, trust, and safety with every interaction and ensures our whole family is set up for success the next day. There's no way we could make it through this stage without their support. They were very helpful with additional resources and recommendations as we navigate this new stage as a family. We look forward to continuing this exciting journey with them by our side."
Devon S. (Lamorinda)
"Bev is the BEST! She helped with our second son and made the entire experience feel so easy. Becoming a mom to another baby with a toddler is stressful enough but being able to sleep through the night knowing my baby was well taken care of was a game changer. She created a healthy sleep foundation and gave us tips as to what to do on the nights she wasn't at our home and even on those nights if I was struggling I'd text her and she was there to help problem solve. Not only is she physically helpful but also emotionally helpful. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Bev will forever be a part of our family."
