Hi, I’m Gabriella! I’m a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, a student of herbalism and aromatherapy, and an advocate for moms and growing families. I’m based in Dandridge and offer hands-on labor and postpartum care across the Knoxville and East Tennessee area, as well as virtual doula support for families across the country. So far, I’ve had the honor of supporting clients across 22 states (including TN, VA, KY, NC, SC, GA, FL, NY, NJ, PA, OH, MO, OK, TX, LA, MS, MD, AZ, CA, MT, WV, and beyond), and I’m working toward my personal goal of serving families in all 50! I believe in care that blends real, evidence-based preparation with natural wellness and emotional grounding. Whether you’re aiming for an unmedicated physiological birth, planning a hospital delivery, navigating a high-risk pregnancy, or preparing for a VBAC or cesarean, my job is to make sure you never feel alone or in the dark. Birth can be unpredictable, and if things shift or move fast, I’m there to keep the room calm, steady, and focused on you. Along with doula support, I offer birth photography, placenta encapsulation, and postpartum care. I also offer payment plans so professional support is actually accessible. When I’m not at a birth, I love reading, mentoring newer doulas, and hanging out with my family, my dogs, and my 3 guinea pigs.

Gabriella definitely helped me in more ways than 1. Throughout my pregnancy she consistently answered questions, taught me things I didn’t even think I needed but ultimately prepared me for so much and gave passionate care. She’s got an amazing gift for this. I thank God for that girl. 💞

Hi, I’m Gloria, a certified birth and postpartum doula and the founder of Little Gems Doula Services. My journey began in 2019 after a traumatic birth experience that left me feeling broken and confused. When I found out I was expecting our second child in 2022, I was excited but also terrified of repeating my first experience. Seeking support, I researched my options and decided I needed a doula. My doula not only helped me process my first birth but also guided me in healing and preparing me and my partner for our second birth experience. Thanks to her support, I entered my second birth feeling empowered, educated, and safer than I ever anticipated. My second birth story was powerful, healing, and redemptive. Having personally experienced the transformative power of doula support, I realized that this was my true passion and calling. I pursued certification and attended my first birth later that same year. As a dedicated doula, my mission is to offer compassionate, non-judgmental, and personalized support to families throughout their childbirth journey. I strive to empower moms by providing physical, emotional, and informational assistance, creating a safe, nurturing environment where their voices are heard and respected. Through education, advocacy, and continuous encouragement, I aim to help families experience a positive, informed, and transformative birth experience that honors their unique needs and choices every step of the way.

I cannot recommend Gloria enough. From the very beginning, she was empowering, informative, and such a calming presence throughout my pregnancy and birth experience. She provided me with the knowledge and resources I needed to feel confident in my choices and always made sure I understood every option available. During labor, she advocated for me beautifully, ensuring my voice was heard and respected. Her support—both emotional and physical—made an incredible difference and helped me feel strong and capable throughout the entire process. I am so grateful to have had her by my side and truly believe my birth experience was more positive and empowering because of her. I feel as though our hearts are forever linked!
