Working with Giah and Gentle Guidance Doula Services was such a comforting and encouraging experience. From the beginning, Giah made me feel heard, supported, and cared for. Her calm presence, patience, and knowledge helped me feel more confident as I prepared for labor, birth, and motherhood. What I appreciated most was how personal her support felt. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, encourage me when I felt overwhelmed, and remind me that my voice and birth preferences mattered. She brought such a peaceful and nurturing presence during a very important season of my life. If you’re looking for a doula who will support you with compassion, encouragement, and genuine care, I highly recommend Gentle Guidance Doula Services. Giah truly has a heart for supporting mothers and families!

So glad I picked a doula and Giah was awesome, a breath of fresh air. So attentive, loving and such an amazing help. This was my second birth with Giah wouldn't have done it without her. She was our in person doula from beginning to postpartum.

Giah was such a blessing being by my side. Her wisdom, kindness, patience, compassion, peaceful presence and the prayers made all the difference. She was my virtual doula and she was on the phone with us from start to finish totaling about 6 hours. So incredible and grateful to have her.
