newborn care chicago

Gabrielle is a loved postpartum doula that was certified through International Doula Institute in 2016. As a postpartum doula she loves bringing knowledge, rest and tailored care to each of her families. She has a deep passion for making sure this time is as positive and enjoyable as possible.

Along with years of postpartum care experience, Gabrielle has enjoyed working with couples and individuals as a Mental Health Therapist and has a background in child development psychology.

Gabrielle is specialized in bringing healing to the birthing person experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety and birth trauma affects and is rooted in tools that allow a more connected mind-body bond within. 

She began working as a doula after supporting her dear family friend after giving birth. She had realized that there were many shortcomings with the current system and so much more care was needed. Gabrielle fed and brought her friend back to health while caring for the baby and hiring a team of doulas to care for them. That experience propelled her into her career as a doula. 

She has also served homeless women and children over the years in her volunteer work and has the patience and warmth to comfortable to “be with” people in their darkest moments, while providing care and support. 

While not caring for families, Gabrielle enjoys spending time writing and performing music with her band and exploring Chicago with her partner and their dog.
