Hello! My name is Giselle Ramirez, and I am a certified Full Spectrum Doula and Lactation Educator located between NYC/NJ. As a doula, I aim to arm families with the advocacy, education, knowledge, reassurance, and the care they need to navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with confidence. When my sister had her IVF NICU twins I had the honor of supporting her through the postpartum process. From struggles and triumphs, to tarot readings to affirm her through doubts, the experience of babies at the NICU, to holding two babies in our arms, along with late night feedings every two hours, I stood by her side. Witnessing the transformation of my sister’s hope into reality was one of the most profound experiences of my life.

I am a mother to a 5 year old and have loved children since I was a child myself. I have always been someone who enjoys helping people. I started on the path towards nursing, earning my Associate’s degree in Fall of 2022. After mostly completing my degree in summer of 2022, I realized my personality wouldn't shine in nursing. I am more empathetic and personable, which lead me to becoming a doula. I started with birth doula in August and it opened my eyes to my passion for birthwork. Shortly after, I took the postpartum doula workshop. That led me to also taking infant CPR, and earning a certified lactation support counselor as well. I am looking forward to sitting for the Lamaze CBE exam Fall of 2023. I have worked with families both prior to these certifications and currently and I can’t wait to explore and learn more
