G. holds many hats in the field of working with children and families. She is a former nanny of 15 years, a graduate degree holder with a MSc in Integrative Medicine and Ayurveda, as well as a birth and Ayurvedic postpartum doula servicing NYC and NJ. She has completed training in Ayurvedic postpartum work, as well as being a holistic birth and pregnancy practitioner. At the heart of her work is a deep respect for the transition into motherhood and the early days of a child’s life. Her years as a nanny shaped her intuitive, hands-on understanding of children and family dynamics, while her academic and clinical background allows her to bring a holistic, root-cause approach to care. She views each family as unique and tailors her support to meet them where they are—emotionally, physically, and culturally.

Her work as a doula is grounded in nurturing both parent and baby. She supports feeding, sleep, recovery, and emotional well-being, while incorporating Ayurvedic principles such as warmth, nourishment, and nervous system regulation. She believes postpartum care should feel held, not rushed, and aims to create a calm, supportive environment where families can settle into their new rhythm with confidence.

G. is especially passionate about educating and empowering parents and doulas alike so they feel supported not just in the moment, but long after her time with them ends. Whether offering hands-on newborn care, guiding a parent through recovery, or serving as a steady, reassuring presence overnight, she brings a blend of professionalism, intuition, and genuine care into every home she enters.

Testimonials

We brought G. into our home for the first month after our baby arrived, and it was a great decision. The transition into the “fourth trimester” can be overwhelming, but G. provided a sense of calm and confidence from the moment she walked through the door. Her guidance was invaluable; she didn’t just help with the baby, she helped us find our rhythm as parents. What stood out most about her service: Expert Knowledge: Whether it was troubleshooting breastfeeding, infant soothing techniques, her advice was always evidence-based and delivered with kindness. Intuitive Support: She has an incredible ability to see what needs to be done before you even ask. From light household help to ensuring we were staying hydrated, she looked after mom and baby. She is professional, punctual, and—most importantly—extraordinarily compassionate. Thanks to her support, we were able to actually enjoy those first few weeks rather than just “surviving” them. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

Hiring G. was hands-down one of the best decisions we made during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Her passion and professionalism made me and my husband feel supported, informed, and empowered. During pregnancy, she was the perfect blend of expert guide, calm reassurance, and hype woman. No question was too small and no fear too irrational. She had evidence-based answers, thoughtful resources, and a way of explaining things that made us feel confident rather than overwhelmed. Throughout my pregnancy, we spent time determining goals and desires for delivery, including a natural, unmedicated birth with God at the center of it all. Every conversation left me feeling more prepared and more excited to meet our baby. When labor began, she became our superhero. She knew when to step in with emotional encouragement, when to offer physical comfort measures, when to advocate, and when to simply hold space. Her calm, grounded presence transformed what could have been an intimidating experience into something powerful and so deeply positive. She put an emphasis on safety. She helped me stay focused, breathe through the toughest moments, and trust my body. I don’t know how my husband and I would have navigated labor without her guidance and intuition. And then postpartum.. This is where she truly went above and beyond. In those emotional, sleep-deprived early days, she was our lifeline. Whether it was helping with feeding, providing reassurance, answering our endless questions, she showed up in the most meaningful ways. G. set me up for healing success with teas, sitz baths, and recipes for warm and nourishing meals. She managed to make us feel both capable and cared for at the same time. What sets her apart is not just her knowledge, but her heart. She cares deeply about the families she supports, and it shows in every interaction. My family and I feel so blessed to have had Gabrielle be such an integral part of one of the most transformative times in our lives. Thank you, G. We love you!

G. is the most caring, generous, and kind doula we’ve ever met. She cares so deeply for our son, always showing up with a smile and a good sense of humor. Her ability to put us at ease and take such good care of our son while we sleep is such a weight off our shoulders. Don’t think twice; hire G.!

G. is an absolute star! My husband and I met her when I was about 5 or 6 months pregnant and stayed in touch and close until the birth of our baby girl. We’d settled on a postpartum care package which quickly began to involve overnight support and general help / care for our newborn. It was clear from the moment we met G. that her sound judgment, introspection, and thoughtfulness as a human being made up the essence of her work. Frankly, we wanted no one else around helping us and being around our new little addition to the family. Our trust in her was immense from the get go. G. is warm, generous, wise beyond her years, and always there to respect and communicate through a parent’s journey. She is honest and prizes true matches with families – like us, she is all about connecting on a deeper level. G. believes deeply in the positive of fostering positive and nurturing energy – she has a true commitment to her passion of supporting families in the greatest of life’s adventures! We have come to greatly prize her authenticity, reliability and genuine love of children (in this case, our little baby girl!). We hope this is only the beginning of years of collaboration and work with G.!

G. provided me with support during labor, delivery, and post-delivery and I am so grateful to have had her knowledgeable and compassionate presence throughout what ended up being a very long labor and an unexpected emergency c-section. G. is a strong advocate, has a calming presence, and really helped my husband and I navigate our first birth. She provided us with useful tips to manage labor pains, came to our home stocked with supplies and took the time to be with us during some of the toughest hours, and made sure to prioritize my birth wishes. I highly recommend retaining G., I’m really really glad I did!

I’ve had the joy to experience G. as my postpartum doula. She is kind, light hearted, adaptable, and a natural at what she does. Having someone near you and your family during this time is sacred and vulnerable, and G. meets this energy with grace. She kept me fed with nourishing postpartum treats, and teas as she healed my body with her incredible body work. I highly recommend her.

Great postpartum doula! Has a soothing aura around her and knows how to help mom navigate the early weeks of PP whether it’s your first or second etc child. The yummy foot bath and leg massage that she ran for me while I held my baby was one of the most relaxing moments of motherhood for me. Thanks G.!
