Who we are

Hi, I’m Amy Gonzales, CEO and Founder of Nuevas Raíces Doula. I’m a certified Labor Doula, Postpartum & Infant Care Doula, and Infant Feeding Educator through ProDoula—and I’m also the proud mother of three incredible boys.

My own journey into motherhood was shaped by traumatic birth experiences that left me feeling unheard, unsupported, and alone. Those moments lit a fire in me to become the kind of support I wish I’d had—to walk alongside families with compassion, information, and unwavering presence. That’s why I became a doula.

At Nuevas Raíces Doula, our mission is to provide individualized, affirming care through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Whether you're preparing for labor, healing after delivery, or navigating infant feeding, I'm here to offer nonjudgmental, evidence-based support that meets your unique needs.

I believe every person—no matter their ethnicity, identity, or financial status—deserves to feel safe, seen, and empowered in their birthing experience. As a bilingual doula (English & Spanish), I’m proud to serve a diverse range of individuals and families, especially those who are often underserved.

We offer:

• Thoughtfully designed birth support bundles to guide you through labor and recovery

• Flexible postpartum care packages to help you heal and adjust

• Compassionate, personalized infant feeding support, with classes launching soon

At Nuevas Raíces, we believe in planting new roots—juntas, together—and growing strong, supported families from the inside out.
