Work with Gia

My Approach: Embodied, Holistic Perinatal Care

Hi! My name is Ligia Soto, I go by Gia.

I blend embodied childbirth education, herbalism, bodywork, and Ayurvedic knowledge across pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As a Birthing From Within–trained mentor, I offer education that goes beyond information—honoring the inner journey, emotional landscape, and transformation that birth invites.

My holistic care includes herbal remedies, gentle bodywork, mindful movement, breathwork, and food as medicine—supporting the body’s natural physiology while tending to the nervous system and spirit. Together, we cultivate intuition, resilience, and self-compassion, preparing you to meet labor’s intensity, navigate the unknown, and integrate your birth experience with courage, grace, and trust, carrying this support seamlessly into the sacred postpartum.

My Philosophy: Honoring the Mother–Baby Dyad

I deeply honor the Mother–Baby bond and family-oriented care that follows natural instincts, shaping every aspect of my postpartum support:

  • Attachment Parenting: Guidance on exclusive breastfeeding, safe co-sleeping, elimination communication, and babywearing.

  • Holistic Recovery: Nourishing, restorative care in the first 40 days, drawing from my training as a Postpartum Practitioner under Pilar Chandler, Doctor of Ayurveda for Women’s Health and Center for Sacred Window Studies

  • Lactation Philosophy: I believe in the unmatched power of human milk. While I support all feeding choices, exclusive breastfeeding offers unparalleled protection and nourishment

Rooted in the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda, this offering honors the traditional 42-day Sacred Window, where warmth, nourishment, rest, and loving support create the foundation for lifelong maternal wellness.

Each visit is intentionally designed to care for the whole mother through nourishing meals, restorative bodywork, herbal therapies, breastfeeding support, and compassionate guidance. My role is to care for you, so you can fully embrace caring for your baby.

Whether you're a first-time mother or welcoming another child, this experience offers a gentle rhythm of healing that allows you to recover feeling supported, nourished, and deeply held.

  • "Gia was such a blessing during my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum! I wanted an unmedicated hospital birth and with her support I was able to achieve this goal. She educated my husband and I so I felt educated and empowered to advocate for myself and my birth plan. We practiced techniques that were essential to maintaining the labor and delivery process I desired. She was such a huge part of my labor and deliver, I am so grateful she was there! I couldn’t have done it without her. "
