My name is Val and I am a trained NCS, and Lactation Educator. I also have training in gentle pediatric sleep conditioning, COVID safety, CPR/AED/First Aid, Safe breastmilk handling, multiples care and safe infant sleep practices. I have experience providing overnight care, 24 hr care, daytime newborn care as well as travel care. I have worked with families of different ethnicities , religions and orientations, and I am always enthusiastic to learn and follow newborn care practices that are sensitive and inclusive of the families culture. If you choose to have me work with your family, you will find me to be enthusiastic, understanding, diligent, flexible, discerning, level-headed and nurturing to the parents, the baby and other children (and pets) in the home. I genuinely enjoy working with families and newborns, and my favorite part is the exciting privilege of guiding parents through the exhilarating, and at times confusing and frustrating, world of newborns, to a point where they are confident, well rested and enthusiastic about peaceful days ahead as a family.

I want to share my strong recommendation for Val as an Overnight Newborn Care Specialist for twins. From the moment she stepped into our home, Val's expertise and compassion shone through. Throughout the nights, she skillfully managed the needs of both babies, ensuring they were well-cared for and content. Val's dedication went beyond just basic care; she provided invaluable support and guidance to us as parents. Her reassuring presence allowed us to rest easier, knowing our twins were in capable hands. I have no doubt that Val's warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for what she does make her an exceptional choice for any family seeking overnight newborn care! Lauren Choung

Working with Adrienne was a really great experience for me during my pregnancy and birth of my first child. She provided support throughout the pregnancy with frequent checkins and meetings. I feel her approach to calm birth attributed to my birth experience and my son’s joyful demeanor now. He is a very calm baby and when we feel overwhelmed we remember our practice to breathe life and calm into our bodies. During the birth Adrienne helped me get comfortable in the hospital by creating a safe space with calming music and dimmed lights. She also helped advocate for me to switch positions so that I could avoid a c-section. Once I changed positions the baby was ready to come out naturally. She also provided cool towels on my head and neck support which made a lot of difference when it feels like you’re heating up everywhere from pushing. I especially appreciated her massage therapist expertise before and after the baby. I think the massage after the baby was more invigorating and life giving for my recovery than anything else I did postpartum. We are so thankful that we met Adrienne and that she supported us during this beautiful experience!

Hello and congrats! I'm Gina Valo, a certified labor doula (Childbirth International and ProDoula) and the founder of BirthingKind. My role as a doula is to make sure you have access to the information, resources, and support you need to feel comfortable and confident throughout your pregnancy and birth experience. Our philosophy is simple: Your Body. Your Baby. Your Birth. My practice is rooted in evidence-based information, which serves as critical foundation for informed decision-making. I lean heavily on my academic and professional background in healthcare data to stay up to date on the latest research in maternal health. Before becoming a doula I worked as a healthcare technology executive and White House Presidential Innovation Fellow at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. I earned a Master of Management in Clinical Informatics from the Duke University School of Medicine and a B.A. in Organizational Studies from the University of Michigan. I like to balance research and data with a healthy dose of empathy and emotional intelligence so that we can arrive at decisions that work best for you. I would love the opportunity to meet you and see if we’re a fit.

Here’s a polished version that keeps your warmth and specificity while tightening the flow a bit: Working with Gina was one of the greatest gifts of my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum experience. She is organized, supportive, thoughtful, incredibly prepared, comforting, present, and accessible in every possible way. Truly — I want to have another baby just so we can work with her again. From the very beginning, Gina provided thoughtful modules, a workbook, and a huge collection of resources that were thorough, practical, and always open for discussion during our sessions. Nothing ever felt rigid or overwhelming — she met us exactly where we were and helped us feel informed, empowered, and cared for. When I first thought I might be having contractions, Gina came over immediately. She calmly talked me through what was happening, helped me understand the likelihood that baby was coming, and eased so many of my nerves. When it was really time, she arrived quickly with this incredible energy that was somehow calm, firm, gentle, grounding, and fully present all at once. She stayed with us from 5am until after 7pm, coaching me through a very hard labor with so much patience and care. I was terrified, and having Gina there genuinely gave me access to a level of calm and confidence I don’t think I could have found otherwise. Her presence helped me believe we could do this and safely bring our baby into the world. And her care didn’t stop after delivery. A few days postpartum, I went to the ER to have my lacerations checked, and Gina met me at the hospital and stayed with me for hours. She even brought snacks and stories to help pass the time and bring comfort and calm into a stressful situation. Gina is truly an extraordinary human and an incredible doula. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
