Maia Spak

Full Spectrum Doula

About Me

Hi, I'm Maia! I'm a birth and postpartum doula based in Los Angeles, supporting families in the San Fernando Valley and surrounding areas. I'm here to walk with you through pregnancy, birth, and those raw and beautiful early postpartum days—with care, honesty, and no judgment.

What brought me to this work wasn't a textbook or a class—it was seeing people I love go through birth experiences that didn't feel as empowering or supported as they deserved. Deep down, I knew it didn't have to be that way. My heart told me that with the right support, those experiences could be transformed—and I decided to become that support. I'm trained and certified through DONA International and also a Certified Lactation Educator Specialist and Certified Perinatal Yoga Instructor. I offer full-spectrum support, weaving evidence-based knowledge with emotional presence, movement, breath, and deep listening.

My approach is mother-centered and intuitive. I believe the mother is the map and knows her body and baby best. I follow your lead, honor your intuition, and provide evidence-based information, emotional support, and practical guidance so you feel confident, supported, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I believe birth is more than a medical event—it's a life-changing moment. And how you're made to feel during it? That matters. A lot. My role is to help you feel heard, prepared, and never alone. If you're here, it probably means you're preparing for something big. And I'd be honored to walk this path with you.
