Bethroot Doula Group

Bethroot Doula Group is a full-spectrum doula practice, providing physical, emotional, and educational doula support and advocacy for families the childbearing year. Full-spectrum doulas provide warm and affirming, nonjudgmental social support and advocacy during pregnancy, birth, loss or abortion, menses, and the postpartum period. Our practice serves all of Los Angeles County, including Pomona and the Gateway Cities, as well as Simi Valley, and we love to support high, low, and medium risk births and families planning home, hospital, and birthing center births. We provide community doula care to disabiled and neurodivergent parents, as well as abled and neurotypical parents, and we have a special interest in serving clients with hEDS, vEDS, and rarer variants of EDS, as well as those with HSD and other genetic hypermobile disorders, MCAS, SFN, autoimmune diseases, gastroparesis and IBS, and dysautonomia/POTS/OI/OH. Our doulas are fully vaccinated and keep up with our regular boosters. We commit to test for covid and flu when sick, and we are able to wear well-fitted masks for all care of clients who request them. In addition to serving cash-pay clients, we are contracted with Health Net, Kaiser of Northern California, Alameda Alliance, Contra Costa Health Plan, Health Plan of San Mateo, Partnership Health Plan, and FFS “Straight” Medi-Cal, and are in process of contracting with Kaiser of Southern California, Anthem, United Healthcare, LA Care, and Molina Healthcare. Please reach out to schedule a virtual consultation at any time. We look forward to working with your family.
