Stephanie Gilbert
About me
I’m Stephanie Gilbert, a Birth and Postpartum Doula serving women and families in The Woodlands, Conroe, and the greater North Houston area through The In-Between Practice: Embodied Birth & Postpartum Care. I offer steady, compassionate support throughout pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum recovery—including birth preparation, comfort and movement support, evidence-informed education, emotional support, and space to rest, recover, and adjust after birth. I have a special interest in serving women over 35, whether they are preparing for their first baby or welcoming another. At the center of my care is the woman herself. My hope is that each mother I serve feels seen, heard, safe, supported, and equipped to make informed choices for herself and her family. I am currently completing my international doula certification pathway and accepting clients in the North Houston area.

Service introduction
I provide embodied birth and postpartum doula care centered on calm presence, informed choice, and continuous emotional, physical, and informational support. My training includes prenatal preparation, labor and birth support, comfort measures, advocacy and communication support, postpartum care, and education that helps mothers and families understand their options and participate confidently in their care. I am currently completing my DONA International birth doula certification. My approach is also informed by my training in functional mobility and breathwork and mindfulness practices. With appropriate provider approval, I can incorporate gentle functional movement, positioning, mobility, breathing, relaxation, and mindfulness practices to support comfort, body awareness, and preparation throughout pregnancy and birth. My role is non-clinical and collaborative: I do not diagnose, prescribe, or replace medical care, but work alongside a family's chosen healthcare providers to help create a supported, informed, and embodied birth experience.

Ratings and reviews
I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to have Stephanie as my doula. Having someone by my side who was knowledgeable, compassionate, patient, and genuinely invested in my experience made such a difference. I would absolutely recommend her to any mother looking for a doula who will treat her with respect, compassion, and care. I am truly thankful for the role she played in my birth journey, and I will always appreciate the support she gave me during such a significant chapter of my life.
