Holistic & Inclusive Care in Southern California
There is nothing more beautiful than watching a new family come into their own. It’s not just the birth of a child, it’s the birth of a family. This transition will challenge all of us, but we don’t have to do it alone.
With an emphasis on finding a mindful rhythm for your new family, I focus on sleep, breast/chest/bottle feeding, nutrition, postpartum healing, emotional mindfulness, and gentle caregiving to promote both physical and mental well-being.
Background
I was working as a reality television producer in Los Angeles when I became pregnant with my son Archie, and shortly after with my daughter, Birdie. My experiences navigating new motherhood as a professional and then as a stay-at-home mom awakened my passion for helping everyone find the confident parent within. I trained with Doula Trainings International in early 2018, but have been studying pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period for some time.
Testimonials
“Having Gilly as my doula was like having a cheerleader, caretaker, and therapist all in a beautiful friend and support system.”
“I’m the kind of person who likes to be prepared, but nothing prepared me for what the postpartum period would be like. Having Gilly with us in those early days helped settle us down and keep us calm.”
“The 24 hour text support was so so helpful when we had questions in the middle of the night. We never felt like we were doing this alone.”
“Two words: get some sleep. Wait that was three. Call Gilly and let her help you figure this out. Everything seems manageable when you’ve gotten some rest.”
