Love Notes

  • "Brooke came in clutch for my terrible back labor in the hospital. She knew exactly what to do and my husband was so grateful for her support. If you're looking for comprehensive doula services, Gather Birth is the way to go! It was definitely worth the cost."

    Emily B.

  • "I cannot recommend Gather Birth more. The second my husband and I met with Brittany we knew that we’d click and she’d be a perfect fit for our birthing experience. She is beyond knowledgeable, supportive, encouraging, educated, and genuinely an incredible human being that we are so thankful to have shared our birth with. We laughed, cried, and welcomed my baby girl together — a magical experience considering we had technically only met her 3 times (she felt like a lifelong friend)."

    Nicole S.

  • "I cannot recommend Gather enough. I had the pleasure of working with Gina as my doula and Britt for lactation support. No matter what type of birth experience you would like (hospital, home, medicated or unmedicated), having a doula is absolutely worth it. Gina helped my labor progress smoothly and offered incredible emotional support. I'll be seeing you all once it comes time for baby number two!"
