Birth Prep Coaching Sessions

I cannot recommend Gina enough! As a first-time mom, she made me feel incredibly comfortable, supported, and confident throughout my pregnancy and birth experience. She took the time to educate me on every aspect of the process and answered all of my questions with patience and care. One of the most helpful resources she provided was a comprehensive workbook that broke everything down in a way that was easy to understand—from medications and the stages of labor to birthing positions and what to expect during delivery. Having that knowledge made such a difference in helping me feel prepared. Her support, guidance, and reassurance were truly invaluable. Looking back, I honestly can’t imagine going through this experience without her by my side. She helped turn what could have been an overwhelming experience into an empowering one. 10/10 would recommend to any expecting parent!

Hiring Gina was the best decision I could have made for me and my baby. For me, it was really important to have a natural vaginal birth without medication. I didn’t want to feel like I was just having things done to me without consent or lack of control over my situation. I wanted it to be something I prepared for and had some knowledge about how I could make informed choices in the situation. I didn’t think it would be easy. My cousin who had recently given birth suggested I hire a doula to help. It sounded like exactly what I would need to prepare for birth and have someone be an advocate for me while I was in a state that I may feel vulnerable and out of control. I interviewed a few different agencies and doulas. To me it was clear after talking to Gina that I wasn’t going to find anyone else better for the job. Prior to birth she came out and coached my partner and I about different birth positions and suggestions to help my body and baby be prepared for labor. She gave us resources to help better understand the process. During labor and delivery she was the support I needed to get through the process. She was very patient with me even when I wasn’t feeling up to doing what she knew would help. She was reassuring and supportive the whole time. At one point around 9 cm I thought I wanted some medication and she basically helped distract me. There is no way I would have been able to have a natural unmediated birth without her. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for an awesome doula who is the best cheerleader and support crew member when you need it the most.

Regina was such a blessing and integral member of my village for our first childbirth! We couldn't have been happier with her as our doula. The education she provided before the baby came helped both me and my husband feel better prepared for labor and birth. I delivered our baby via a natural, unmedicated birth and couldn't have done it without Regina's support which included not only her technical expertise but also her loving energy and supportive attitude. After the baby came, Regina helped me with breastfeeding: Her coaching helped me make much faster progress breastfeeding. Between our in-person sessions, she was always ready for any and every question, sharing helpful resources and referrals. I can't imagine having done this journey without her and will definitely be requesting her for baby #2! Thank you, Regina!

Gina, she is a gem 💎!!! I felt supported in every stage. During pregnancy, during labor and even during my postpartum journey. I don't think my experience would've went as well if I didn't have her in my corner. She is hands on, she is knowledgeable, personable, and you can tell that she loves what she does. I had an amazing, positive, and inspiring birth experience with her help, and support. I highly recommend!

Gina is amazing! I did extensive research and found the perfect Doula. From day one, she was very supportive and kind. Our home visits were very thorough & she went above & beyond to provide education, insight, and helpful tips. My first childbirth was amazing & everything I prayed for. She’s even followed up post birth & she has a heart of gold. I highly recommend her!

Gina was a pleasure to work with! As first time parents we were so nervous going into our pregnancy and birth journey, Gina was the support we needed. She helped us feel informed going into the hospital for delivery which was super important to us. Having her there gave me so much confidence and peace of mind, I can’t imagine going through all without her. She truly is there to support the whole family!

The education, comfort and care that you get with Gina is next level. She will not let you or your birthing partner walk through your pregnancy and birthing journey alone. So glad to have her as a part of our story.

I had my son via Fertility treatments as a 40 plus first time mom. Regina provided excellent support both educational and emotional to me during the pregnancy process and after the birth of my son. It was good to have the extra support outside of doctors to help me advocate for myself and answer my many questions. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who wants a champion to walk with them through this pregnancy and birth process.

So thankful we crossed paths with Gina! She did an amazing job serving my husband and I as our doula. Gina is very knowledgeable, supportive, and creates a safe space for clients to voice their cares and concerns. She makes you feel right and home and provides the right tools and resources to empower you throughout the whole journey. I highly recommend her services and look forward to working with her again in the future!

I highly recommend Gina. From the moment we first connected, she brought such a calming, supportive presence to my pregnancy and birth experience. Throughout my labor, Gina was a constant source of encouragement. She instinctively knew what I needed—whether it was physical support or reassurance. She created a peaceful, empowering atmosphere in the delivery room and seamlessly navigated me through various birthing positions. Even after the birth, she continued to be an incredible resource, answering questions, and checking in to make sure we were adjusting well as a new family. If you're looking for a doula who is professional, kind, and truly passionate about what she does, Gina is your girl!

I am now six months postpartum from using Mamabear Doula Services… I waited to write my review because I want time to reflect on my experience and share truthfully. If I could describe my experience in one word, it would be MAGICAL. I don’t think my husband really understood the value that a doula brings to the entire birth experience, but one of the first things he said after I gave birth was that he could not have done it without her. And I said well that makes two of us. Throughout my pregnancy Miss Gina Answered all questions, and to put simply was a safe place through the whole process. I was able to have the birth of my dreams(natural with no Epidural). My water broke at 10:20pm and I was holding my baby at 11:20 AM. Every pregnancy for every person is different but I know Mamabear Doula had a huge impact on my delivery.

We hired Gina the doula for our second birth. She sets the bar high with expertise, professionalism, compassion, and knowledge. We couldn’t have done it without her and I recommend her services to anyone who is considering.

Gina was great! During labor and delivery, she made sure all questions were answered and everything that the hospital staff was doing was explained to us. It was comforting to have her there. This experience was priceless.

Mama bear Gina is truly amazing to work with. I hired her around 32 weeks of pregnancy for my 2nd birth, and it was by far one of the best decisions my husband and I made! We had 2 prenatal visits with Gina before I delivered, and each time she walked into our home with such a loving, warm, and joyful personality ❤️. She always came in with her bright smile and spontaneous, yet funny stories. There was seriously never a dull moment with her. One thing I loved most working with Gina, was the fact that she could be so bubbly and animated one moment, and then kick right into gear when it came down the real deal. She literally owned that labor and delivery room. Her whole demeanor changed to be a bit more assertive to make sure the hospital staff were on board with my birthing plan. Her knowledge of medical terminology was great! She helped explain certain things to me in a way that I could better understand even throughout all my labor pains. I seriously commend her as my laboring lasted HOURSSSS! I'm sure she was tired, but she stood up with me in the wee hours of the morning, helping me cope with my labor pains, doing counter pressure with me and switching up my positions. Because of Gina, I was able to successfully have a VBAC 😊!! Seriously, without her knowledge, guidance and encouragement, I don't think I would've been able to do it without her. Thank you so much Gina 🥰❤️!! I'll be sure to hire you again if ever baby #3 decides to come into existence lol.

Auntie G was AMAZING with our 2nd birth. I wish she could have been with us for our first. She gave us helpful resources from the very beginning and postpartum. You will not regret having her by your side on your pregnancy and birth journey. So many laughs and joyful moments. Do not hesitate to have her with you! Seriously you need an Auntie G to be your guiding light when it feels as though no one else seems to get you during your pregnancy, birth, and as a mom. We love her!

Gina is an ANGEL! She was right by my side through my first birth and the first few days! She was so helpful and comforting. I am so happy I chose her to be my doula.

Gina is an angel and you should not hesitate to hire her as your doula! She helped me achieve my goal of 100% drug free natural child birth and was instrumental in guiding me (and my husband) through delivery. Words cannot describe how highly I recommend her services!!

Gina aka Auntie Gina was amazing! Found her while searching online and immediately connected during our first call. She is so down to Earth and makes the entire experience so pleasant. This was my first child and she made sure to educate me on all my options and the process. She did in home visits and was always a text/call away. When I was induced, she was there in the hospital advocating for me and making sure the hospital staff knew my birth plan. I was terrified of labor but Gina’s methodology really changed the game. I’ll forever remember “ride the wave” for my contractions. I appreciate Gina so much and will definitely use her again for baby number 2!
