Hi! I’m Gigi. I’m looking forward to collaborating!

Bio
Gigi Vera Vincent is a postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, and lactation educator who is committed to shifting the disparity between the amount of focus most families place on birth versus preparing for the fourth trimester. A strong advocate of preparing for postpartum by investing in maternal support instead of fancy baby equipment, Gigi empowers families so that once baby arrives, they can focus on resting and bonding, instead of researching or stressing. Knowing there isn’t one right way to have and raise a tiny human, Gigi works with parents as they find their way to thrive in the fourth trimester and beyond.
