"Having her support was the best decision we could have ever taken. Her presence during labor was nothing short of magical—she brought a calming, empowering and informed energy to the room and knew exactly how to support us in the most meaningful ways."

"Gina was FANTASTIC and supported my wife and I above and beyond what we expected. She’s turned me into a huge doula advocate since she helped my wife understand what was most important to her as part of the delivery process and helped articulate that to the medical providers via my wife’s birth plan. I learned so much from her and I was able to better support my wife throughout the process."

"My first baby was sunny side up and I wanted to avoid this with my second baby. Gina gave me a lot of advice on how to position the baby, both before and during birth. And this baby came out in the optimal position which made the whole process much smoother!
During the labor Gina was present but not intrusive. She helped me to change positions and showed my husband how to give me a back massage which was extremely helpful. I was able to give birth to a 9 lb 12 oz baby naturally without an epidural, which is quite an achievement! Gina definitely contributed to our success."

"We really appreciated that Gina didn’t come with a set agenda; she took the time to understand what we wanted and supported us in achieving it. This was so helpful both in preparation for birth, and during labor when it was much harder to have a clear head, be assertive, respond to the unexpected, etc.
We cared about birth being a special and intimate experience for our new family. Gina knew when to step in with support, and when to give us space for bonding and to feel ownership over our birth."

I would say the best part of my pregnancy was having a doula. Gina made sure I felt secure and worked hard at providing all the information I needed. She was all responsive and so willing to listen to me about everything (questions, fears/concerns).
She took time to cultivate relationship with my husband and I. I remember during our consultation with her, she actually asked my husband what his vision was for our birth (wow - she considered his desires too).
During labor, Gina was my backbone. I get teary eyed because she really did such an incredible job and worked her butt off by my side for 15+ hours!!

"Gina came at a point when I needed all the support I could get. I am the mother of 5 children, and Gina was my first experience at having a doula. I would recommend her to anyone who might need a doula. She’s the sweetest, and she’ll respect your wishes."

"Gina from Birthingkind helped make my birth experience positive and I could not have done it without her. She helped me feel physically and emotionally comfortable and I would 100% recommend her."
