Soy una Puertorriqueña que busca orientar y educar a la mujer embarazada y a su acompañante en cuanto al embarazo, parto, nacimiento y posparto. Reconociendo que el embarazo y el parto son un proceso natural y fisiologico en el cual la mujer y su bebe son los protagonistas.

Actualmente existe un problema serio de salud publica y falta de recursos educativos llevando a una mayor incidencia de inducciones y cesareas. Me dirijo a la población Hispana con el proposito de romper los mitos y tabues en nuestra cultura Latina. Orientado, guiando, y educando a la mujer y su acompañante brindando las herramientas necesarias para que pueda tomar decisiones informadas en cuanto a su proceso.

My name is Gabrielle and I’m from Central Florida . I started this journey of birth world years ago when I gave birth to my son. As the years passed the birth world just stood out to me little by little.

I attended a Dona training and other trainings that helped me get  certified as a doula and with placenta encapsulation. I have also birth assisted for a few years with local midwives . I continue to grow with every birth that I have been blessed to be a part of . It brings me joy to know i can help the  birth world one person at a time.
