“i believe that women should be held and supported throughout every stage of motherhood by a community of women who are leading through their own wisdom, light, and life”.

-gabriela gonzalez, founder of Nido Birth Services

Gabriela has warmth, nonjudgmental ease, and a wealth of knowledge that calmed my first-time parent anxiety. Nothing went the way I wanted it to: I couldn't have a natural home birth due to a myomectomy and gestational diabetes. She was there to offer support and guidance through all of the issues I had along the way. When my baby had to go to the NICU, I couldn't have managed without her postpartum support.

Gabriela helped me as a first-time mom. She was my doula and was amazing! Both my hubs and I felt so much calmer when she arrived and explained everything, and helped us through contractions and breathing techniques.

She was there with us through it all. We can’t express how helpful and supported, and educated we felt by having her by our side!

10/10 recommendations!!! Also, for post-birth help and advice highly recommend!

Having Gabriela by our side was one of the best decisions we made for our birth experience. She brought such calm, knowledge, and reassurance to every moment, helping us feel confident and supported through labor and postpartum. Her care went far beyond what we expected, and we’ll always be grateful for her warmth and guidance

Such an incredible experience with Gabbi. She was a great resource throughout the pregnancy and really empowered us to make decisions that felt aligned with our desires. During the birth, she was a champion and an anchor with endless back rubs (thank you!) and continued support through a long birth. We are so grateful to have had her help! The continuous reminders that there are many ways to approach both pregnancy and birth made such an impact on our experience with everything from glucose testing to using a sheet for “tug of war” during the pushing phase!
