Rebecca Gordon

My name is Rebecca Gordon. I am a Certified Labor Doula, Postpartum Doula, Certified HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator, a North Carolina Licensed Nutritionist, Certified Nutrition Specialist, and Certified Placenta Arts Specialist. I live in the Charlotte, NC area - Lake Norman with my husband, 3 daughters, and lots of fur babies.

As a doula and functional nutritionist whose practice serves the Charlotte and Lake Norman areas of North Carolina since 2010,  I am extremely experienced in supporting birthing people improve their birth outcome, their overall health and mental wellness through the experiences of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I use such tools and services as childbirth education classes, doula support through pregnancy, labor/birth and postpartum, as well as nutritional guidance and education for both mother and baby

Along with providing birth services, I also provide Functional Nutrition services for those looking to improve their health, support fertility, improve lab work, increase energy, balance hormones, support their adrenal health and stress response, treat thyroid imbalance, improve mental health, treat autoimmune diseases nutritionally, improve gut health, etc. 

Through my birth experiences, I fell in love with the idea of supporting birthing people through doula work. I had the most wonderful birth experiences at home and at a birth center with my wonderful midwives and doula. Sadly, I noticed there are so many more scary and negative birth stories being shared than positive. I craved to be a positive birth story and to help pregnant people prepare for their positive and empowering birth, no matter what birth experience they envision for themself (unmedicated, medicated birth, belly birth; homebirth, birth center birth, hospital birth). No one should ever be made to feel helpless, weak, or out of control during their labor and birth.
