Midwife · IBCLC Lactation Consultant · Educator Prepare For Birth With Confidence, Not Fear

I’m Gabriella, a Midwife, IBCLC Lactation Consultant, educator, and founder of Elite Midwifery. For the past several years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting more than 1,000 women through pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum.

You do not have to figure this out alone.

You’re Pregnant… yey… Now What?

If you’re here, chances are you’ve already started preparing for your baby.

Already done

  • You’ve looked at baby clothes.
  • Started thinking about the nursery.
  • Maybe you’ve already packed your hospital bag.
  • Maybe you’ve spent hours Googling symptoms at 2 AM.

Have you prepared for yourself?

Forty weeks of preparing for your baby. And almost none of it spent preparing for you.

What every mother asks Pregnancy comes with so many questions.

  • Is this normal?
  • How do I know if my baby is okay?
  • What should I be doing?
  • How can I prepare for labor?
  • Will I know what to do when the time comes?

And suddenly everyone has an opinion.

  • Your doctor.
  • Your mother.
  • Your mother-in-law.
  • Instagram.
  • TikTok.
  • Google.
  • Everyone.

Before you know it, you’re overwhelmed.

Pregnancy Support That’s where I come in.

My role isn’t to make decisions for you.

My role is to help you understand your options, trust your instincts, and feel confident throughout your journey.

Birth Preparation What If Birth Wasn’t Something To Fear?

What we’ve been told

  • Something scary.
  • Something painful.
  • Something to simply survive.
  • Something to “get over with.”

What if birth could be

  • Beautiful
  • Challenging
  • Transformative
  • Empowering
  • Even enjoyable

No, I’m not saying labor is easy. I’m saying your body was designed for this. I’m saying that understanding birth changes the way you experience it.

I’m saying that confidence grows when fear is replaced with knowledge.

And most importantly - birth is about so much more than delivering a baby. It’s about discovering what you’re capable of.

A woman upright and grounded in late labour

At Elite Midwifery, we’re not just preparing women for labor. We’re helping women see birth in a completely different way.

  • Not something to fear.
  • Something to understand.
  • Something to prepare for.
  • Something to experience.
  • Something to remember.

Birth Preparation Course & Prenatal Fitness The Due Date Is Getting Closer… And So Is Birth.

  • Maybe you’re excited.
  • Maybe you’re nervous.
  • Maybe you’re terrified.
  • That’s normal.

Most women spend months preparing for their baby but very little time preparing for labor itself. The truth is, birth feels very different when you understand what’s happening, why it’s happening, and what your options are. That’s exactly why I created these programs.

Lactation Consultant & Postpartum Support Then Your Baby Arrives…

And suddenly everyone is focused on the baby.

But who’s supporting you?

The postpartum period can be beautiful. It can also be overwhelming. One minute you’re staring at your baby in complete awe. Next you’re wondering if breastfeeding is supposed to feel this difficult.

Whether you’re struggling with latch, milk supply, pumping, recovery, sleep deprivation, or simply adjusting to motherhood, I want you to know something:

You are not failing.

You are learning.

And you deserve support too.

They trust Elite Midwifery

  • Because they feel heard.

I had an amazing experience with Elittle Midwifery. I took four prenatal sessions with Gabriella, and they were incredibly helpful. I learned so much during our time together. I enjoyed the pain management techniques she explained that helped me during labor. she supported me every step of the way. One thing I really appreciated was the unlimited WhatsApp messaging. She was always available, always checking in, and made me feel truly cared for throughout my pregnancy journey. I’m so grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for compassionate and knowledgeable prenatal support.

I took labour preparation and breastfeeding courses with Gabriella and they helped me have a smoother birthing experience and take well informed decisons. It's key for every pregnant woman to be well prepared and have all the information that she might need. Gabriella was very keen on following up with me after birth and she saved my breastfeeding journey! Sometimes a small problem could be in your way and having a professional like Gabriella by your side can make a huge difference. Thank you ❤️

I took a pregnancy and breastfeeding preparation course with Elite Midwifery by Gabriella Younes, and it was a really valuable experience. Even though my delivery ended up being a C-section and I didn’t fully apply everything from the course, the knowledge I gained made me feel much more informed and confident going into labor and motherhood. Gabriella is knowledgeable, supportive, and explains things in a very clear and reassuring way. Overall, I highly recommend this course to any expecting mother. It’s empowering to have this information, even if your birth experience doesn’t go exactly as planned.

Gabriella was truly a gift during my pregnancy and breastfeeding journey ! From the start, she surrounded me with calm, reassurance, and genuine compassion. She believed in me even when I doubted myself, and her constant support gave me so much strength and confidence🙌 The breathing exercises she patiently taught me changed everything — they helped me stay calm and focused, and thanks to her guidance, my delivery was incredibly fast at just 30 minutes! I will never forget how safe, supported, and empowered she made me feel during one of the most important moments of my life🩷 I am endlessly grateful for Gabriella’s care, kindness, and dedication, and I recommend her with my whole heart🩷🩷🩷🩷

No matter how much I try to say, I feel like my words will never be enough to give you the credit you truly deserve, Gabriella.You are such a kind and supportive person. You were with me throughout my entire pregnancy journey, during labor, and even after delivery with breastfeeding support.I never once regretted taking the sessions with you. They helped me so much and made me understand so many important things. Especially during labor, I went in feeling aware, prepared, and confident — particularly about the pain and how to manage it. A huge thank you for being by my side every step of the way 🤍

I just want to say that I'm very grateful for the sessions with you. From a traumatic birth with my first baby to a very smooth one with my second. The labor was extremely easy and I was able to give birth with literally 2 mins, one push and a half 😂 I kept on moving all the time using the exercises that you taught me and within one hour the cervix went from 4 to 8 cms. The medical staff were all surprised by my knowledge and how fierce I was through it all 😍 and that's all thanks to you!

Before you go I want you to remember one thing.

  • You don’t need to know everything today.

  • You don’t need to have all the answers.

  • You don’t need to be the perfect mother.

You simply need the right support.

Whether you’re newly pregnant, preparing for labor, trying to breastfeed, or navigating life with a newborn, I’m here to help you feel informed, supported, and confident every step of the way.

Because motherhood isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about learning to trust yourself.

And that journey starts long before your baby arrives.
