My name is Gabrilla. I have been working with birthing women for 12 years. Through the years , I have seen a huge need of suport for birthing woman. I am passonate on educating women on the power of their body and how when we step into our given power, birth changes. I hope to help educate women and support their physical and mental needs during pregnancy and birth. If we could just allow our bodies to birth, truama in birth would go down!

Recent review

Gabriella is by far the BEST doula I have ever worked hired. From her care, compassion, knowledge, wisdom I received from her. It was everything I had hoped for in what I wanted to experience during birth. I felt heard during my entire pregnancy I felt like she knew exactly what I was feeling and going through during the entire pregnancy, labor & postpartum. That in itself is what I felt like makes her care so unique and important and so RESPECTED. Every appointment felt like sweet fellowship. Which is what we all really want in the end. Where the care you receive feels like home. I felt like she deeply understands the Art and beauty of birth. Which is why she brought so much joy to my births & unity to our family at each appointment. Also I received so much care during my post partum period from the foods she recommended to the rhythm of how to handle postpartum. That was something that I really loved about her. She was there for me post partum. Overall this was by far a 10/10 service. I will be back again as she provided more care than the average doula I may be biased but if your looking for the best, someone who cares about you your baby your family. Gabriella is your girl.

I am Tintawi Kaigziabiher, and my family and I live in Northern New Mexico. As a woman of African Descent. I recognize the importance of both science and tradition in uplifting Black and Indigenous communities. My husband and I have five living children. We have also experienced five pregnancy losses. Understanding the impact of personal pregnancy loss and stillbirth among families has inspired me to want to support as many people as possible so they can live to see their child’s birth, first birthday, and beyond. It is equally important that people have support through pregnancy loss. In my day-to-day life, I am an interdisciplinary artist, a writer, Olorisa (Lukumi Priest), Certified Lactation Counselor (ALPP), Certified Birth Doula (CBI), former Certified Trainer (CBI), Neonatal Resuscitation Provider, the Executive Director of the nonprofit ILE IFE, a PAILAdvocate Trainer (Pregnancy and Infant Loss), and the founder of the Our Earth Full Spectrum Community Birth and Postpartum Attendant (CBPA) training program. I am a published author, and my most recent work is a book entitled “The Bead Griot.” My writing and artwork center on giving voice to the experiences of African people living in the diaspora. I have worked in maternal and infant health since 2004 and professionally since 2009. I have assisted midwives, trained with birth attendants in traditional and evidence-based care, worked with families in home and hospital births, trained doulas and full-spectrum Community Birth and Postpartum Attendants (CBPAs), and supported women and birthing people in New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, and overseas, both virtually and in-person as needed. In collaboration with several statewide organizations I am part of, I seek to uncover disparities in reproductive health care and, with community members, develop unique solutions to improve outcomes for our most vulnerable yet resilient people.
