About Ida
Ida Reid is a Certified Postpartum Doula (CPD) and RIE® Associate, born and raised in Santa Monica and Pacific Palisades, who has supported new families since opening her practice in 2010 and completed her RIE Associate certification in 2018. Her goal, as she says, is 'to work myself out of a job' — not to take over the care of a family but to support parents in building a respectful, healthy, confident relationship with themselves and their baby through evidence-based education, supportive listening and a realistic approach to each family's individual dynamic.

What parents say
Ida gently guided us into alignment with many of the RIE principles that helped us develop a deeply loving and respectful relationship with our daughter… she provided us with exactly the right amount of information on early childhood development and the 'why' behind it all so that we felt empowered, capable, and much more secure in our decisions as new parents.
