About
Meet Heather Drumgoole
I'm Heather Drumgoole, CD (DONA), a certified postpartum doula serving families across Tracy, Stockton, and San Joaquin County. I support parents through the fourth trimester with calm, practical, nonjudgmental care—in your home, on your schedule.
Whether you need newborn and feeding guidance, an overnight so you can finally sleep, or simply someone to lean on while you recover, I'm here to take the weight off so you can focus on your baby and yourself. I also help eligible families use their Medi-Cal doula benefit from start to finish.
