Darla Burns has been married to her husband since 1994 and has 2 wonderful children and a sweet son-in-law. She has been passionate about birth as long as she can remember. Darla started doing doula work in 1990 but only realized in 2003 that there was a name for the work she was doing. She immediately took her training to be a Certified Labor Doula and then continued on that path and became a Certified Postpartum Doula, Certified Childbirth Educator, Certified Happiest Baby on the Block Instructor, Infant Massage Instructor, and a Certified Lactation Educator.

In 2007, Darla became a postpartum doula trainer and began holding Postpartum Doula Trainings in California.

Darla is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and is teaching monthly Breastfeeding Intensive Classes at Pure Births. She is also the Founder of Doula University (TM).

“As Americans, we are under the impression that moms are “Superwomen” and can return to life as it was before baby. We must remember to celebrate this new mother and emulate the other cultures that honor new mothers by caring for them, supporting them, and placing value on the magnificent transformation she is going through. This is the greatest gift we can give to new mothers and newborns” -Darla Burns

My name is Paula Inés Laria. I’m a Nutritionist from Argentina and an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in the United States, fluent in both English and Spanish.

At Breast Time of Life, our mission is to help parents feel confident, informed, and supported in providing their baby with the healthiest start possible. We combine science-based knowledge with compassionate care, respecting each family’s culture, values, and unique experiences.

We believe that information is power, and when families are well-informed, they can make decisions with confidence and actively participate in their baby’s care. Our goal is simple: to create a nurturing space where parents feel guided and empowered, and babies receive the best foundation for a brighter future.
