Meet Gina

Gina is a birth doula on our team, as well as a herbalist and early childhood educator. She has been in the field of early childhood education for over 10 years mentoring families and helping them to connect with their infants and toddlers. She loves educating families about their child’s developmental milestones and how they can support them in their emotional, physical and cognitive growth. 

Prior to becoming a doula she has worked with un-housed children and families in an early childhood learning center, as well as a long time teacher in Reggio Emilia inspired child care centers. Gina’s experience as a mother also greatly influences the work she does as a birth doula. Having children has brought many blessings, hardships and transformative experiences to her world.

As a birth doula, Gina enjoys having the privilege to become part of this journey and experience of parenthood for families. It is an honor to witness the moment a person becomes a mother or a father. When it comes to labor and delivery, she strongly believes that physical preparation creates positive outcomes. Many women can enjoy active and healthy pregnancies where they thrive and develop strength and resilience. She has supported c-section births, natural births and births where epidurals were used. She is very supportive of all births.

In her free time, Gina loves spending time with her family, as well as staying active through hiking, lifting, and dancing.
