Marla Bono-Fisher

 

I was born in Los Angeles, CA, the third generation in my family to be born and raised here. I have been married since 1991 and have three daughters. For as long as I can remember, I have been impassioned about infants and children. I started doing "doula" work in 1995, but only realized in 2015 that what I was doing had an official name. That year I began my training as a postpartum doula through DONA International, and went on to complete my certification in 2016. I wholeheartedly believe in continuing education, and have taken Breastfeeding for Doulas, as well as other workshops, to enrich my practice. I also have a degree in Political Science and International Relations from UCLA.  

​

In addition to my work as a doula, I have been working as a California credentialed teacher in the Conejo Valley at Las Virgenes Unified School District for the past 15 years. I have also worked as a Health Office Specialist from 2009-2012 at Point Dume Elementary School in Malibu. 

​

As a postpartum doula, I currently serve the San Fernando Valley, the Conejo Valley (including Agoura Hills, Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks and Ventura), West Los Angeles, and the South Bay.

​

It is my goal to support women and families during the unique and special time that is postpartum. Helping you have a smooth transition into life with your newborn, giving you the knowledge you need to be confident parents, and easing your recovery from birth are all part of what I can offer you.
