Heather Charmatz

It's an honor to have served families at home with a homebirth midwife and in all San Francisco locations: UCSF, CPMC, Kaiser, SFGH, Marin Health and the San Francisco Birth Center. I've been in full time doula practice since 2012 and have supported over 250 families as a birth doula and over 800 placenta clients as an encapsulator. I completed the Heart and Hands midwifery intensive with Elizabeth Davis, NHA’s Medical Assistant certification, APPA's placenta certification and an OSHA compliant bloodborne pathogens training. I have also completed a Spinning Babies training and Evidenced Based Birth continuing education courses in VBAC, Due Dates and Advanced Maternal Age, “Big Babies,” Failure to Progress and “PROM, GBS, and Newborns.” Currently insured through CM&F #702926, registered with the city of San Francisco, and a SFDG Advanced Doula Certified member of the San Francisco Doula Group.
