My experience with my doula, Gabriela, was truly incredible. She was attentive, caring, and genuinely kind. I always felt heard, supported, and advocated for throughout my third birth. With Gabriela by my side, I was able to have the birth experience I hoped for—my third birth and second unmedicated VBAC. She was exactly the support I needed during labor.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Gabriella. She was an absolute blessing throughout my pregnancy, labor, and birth. As a first-time mom, I was both excited and nervous, but having her by my side made all the difference.

From the moment we met, she made me feel heard, supported, and empowered. During labor, she was a calming presence, helping me stay focused, reminding me to breathe, and offering the perfect balance of encouragement and comfort. Her knowledge and gentle guidance helped me achieve the natural birth I had always dreamed of, and I truly don’t think I could have done it without her.

Thanks to her unwavering support, my birth experience was everything I hoped it would be—peaceful, powerful, and beautiful. I’m endlessly grateful for her presence and would wholeheartedly recommend Gabriella to anyone wanting a positive and empowering birth experience.

I highly recommend Gabriela for her exceptional support and expertise. She provided valuable knowledge, reassurance, and effective pain management strategies for an unmedicated birth. As a first-time mother unfamiliar with what to expect, I greatly appreciated having Gabriela as an advocate and resource to navigate the unique circumstances that can arise during labor and delivery. I am confident that Gabriela's services played a significant role in helping me achieve my goal of an unmedicated birth.

Hiring Gabriela was one of the best decisions we made! This was our first baby and no matter how many books or podcasts we read/listened to there is still uncertainty and Gabriela was not only amazing during my labor but she helped ease our minds prior to the big day by going over my preferences and also teaching my husband how to be the best advocate for me. 
I will always encourage people to hire a doula and for sure send them Gabriela's way!

It is hard for us to find the words to write about our experience with Gabriela!! She exceeded our expectations!!
We were several hours into labor with our first baby when our midwife asked us late at night if we would be open to a doula joining us to help- and we were as we were preparing for a long labor ahead yet!
Within a few short hours, Gabriela had arrived to our home and we had an instant connection with her! She stayed by my side the entire time and guided me through my contractions and ensured I rested in between!! We are thankful she was able to jump right into our birth space without knowing us at all!

Hands down would always have Gabriela by our side with our future children and we highly recommend her to anyone on the fence about having a doula on their team or not!!

We were luckily enough to work with Gabriela as our doula for our second daughter's birth. We had a nice nurse and my husband was supportive, but it was wonderful to have another person in our corner.

Gabriela is so sweet and compassionate. There were moments where the pain got so intense I wasn't sure I could do it, but Gabriela's reassuring words and therapeutic touch helped me dig down and find the strength to bring our daughter into the world. We had also met a couple times before the big day and she was able to help me think about what types of things I did or didn't want during my birth experience. This was definitely helpful because I the moment it's hard to think or make decisions. Then during my labor she was able to remind me of the different pain relief and positioning options we had discussed.

She's super sweet and was a calming presence. I didn't want family in the room - wanting it to just be me and my husband- but I didnt feel like she was interfering with our special moment at all. I don't know if that makes sense. Like she was there when I needed/wanted but gave us our space too.

I'm very glad the opportunity to work with Gabriela came up, I would highly recommend working with with her.
