Kayla Gonzales Birth & Postpartum Doula in Philadelphia, PA

Kayla was such a great doula from all the way through the 40 weeks & post-Partum and beyond. She showed up for the delivery when we needed her most as advocator for our birth-plan in the labor & delivery room , guidance when our water broke & the veteran we needed in our corner to help ask the right questions. Thank you.

“Kayla is amazing”! She was my postpartum doula for several weeks. She has a wealth of knowledge in postpartum care and made me very empowered. Her program really helped me to attain the mindset I needed for getting through those days where I felt the most overwhelmed. She worked with me in creating affirmation post its that she later reminded me of when I needed them most. She was the sweetest to not only my baby boy but also to my 9y/o daughter who loves to converse about all things gymnastics and baking. She gave me time and company when needed. She met my needs by being intentional about the details of what I needed during her visits. My baby actually fell asleep with Kayla during one of her visits, which he doesn’t do with everyone. Kayla is very easy to talk to. Like a friend just over for sweets and good convos. She is very assertive when it comes to ensuring mom and baby’s needs are met. As she also reminded me that postpartum isn’t just black and white. My postpartum journey can be whatever I want it to be and she wanted to help me achieve my goals. Something as silly as me really wanting to organize my gym or take a walk, or even just doing nothing but caring for me and my kids. She encouraged me and never imposed what general “postpartum” should look like. It was tailored and personalized to me. Thank you Kayla for the reminder that postpartum isn’t a one size fits all. I’m thankful for my DOULA!

Thank God I was introduced to Kayla my Doula for my second pregnancy. I was skeptical about having a doula at first but meeting with her during my pregnancy was a life changer for me and my partner. She educated me a lot about my pregnancy and delivery options. She wasn't pushy. She gave me ideas so I was able to decide what I wanted to do in terms for a natural birth. What I appreciate about her is that she's always available by text or a phone call no matter what time of the day. The day when I went in to have my baby, she was there with me showing my partner ways to calm me and help to make labor easy and fast. She went above and beyond to make sure I was fully taken care of by the nurses. After having my baby she came to my house to check up on me and even offered a time for her to babysit so I could get alone time to do whatever I wanted. I'm so happy I had chosed her.
