GABRIELLE
I’m Gabrielle (they/she), a first-generation Liberian, full-spectrum community doula based in Brooklyn, offering care rooted in presence, gentleness, and deep listening.
Certified through Ancient Song Inc., my training spans childbirth education, lactation education, perinatal mood support, abortion care, prison doula work, home birth assistance, and infant massage.

I am currently training in placenta encapsulation.
My approach is grounded and relational, walking alongside families with steadiness and warmth rather than instruction or fixing. At the heart of my work is a commitment to ensuring people feel held, heard, and never alone during moments of profound transition.
With care that is explicitly gender-inclusive and affirming, I bring cultural and spiritual sensitivity shaped by my Liberian heritage and lived experience, centering autonomy, dignity, and communal safety for queer, immigrant, and marginalized families.
Toni · Birth & postpartum support
“From the moment we met, Gabby was incredibly supportive. She made sure my second birth experience went smoother than my first, and ensured I had all of the information I needed to make informed decisions throughout my pregnancy and birth.

She continuously reassured me of my strength and ability to have an unmedicated birth, and she held my hand through every step of the process. Gabby supported me while my husband was away, attended appointments with me, and provided knowledgeable lactation education and emotional support postpartum. She helped me process both of my birth experiences, made me feel deeply heard, and even played gospel music with me to calm my nerves and help me claim my power. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the support I received. Her presence alone made a huge impact.”
Lisa B. · Birth & postpartum support
“Gabby was my birth and postpartum doula for my baby, and I don’t know what I would have done without her. I was in the hospital for a week and so scared without my family close by, but Gabby made sure I never felt alone.

She kept me informed every step of the way, helping me understand what the doctors and nurses were telling me so I could make my own decisions with confidence. She supported me through labor and stayed by my side once my baby arrived and beyond. My whole family adores her, and I’ll always be grateful for her.”
Karen & Ry · Birth support
“Gabby was our first doula, and we never expected to feel so comfortable sharing such an intimate experience with someone outside of doctors and family. She blended right in, supporting us and helping make the delivery process as comfortable as possible. She always went the extra mile and was ready to assist at any hour. Her positive energy lifted us on days when we needed it most, and she was consistently informative and communicative throughout the entire journey. We are deeply grateful for her presence and care.”
Derek & Sophie · Postpartum support
“Gabby brought stability and assurance to new parenthood. We were apprehensive about building trust with someone immediately post-partum - but we felt at ease with her and quickly came to lean on her in those trying early weeks.”
