Here Mama is founded by Gayle Berry, an award-winning Parent & Baby Wellness Expert. Twenty-three years walking beside mothers and babies across 40+ countries. TEDx speaker, author, somatic practitioner, infant mental health advocate, and mother of three. She has trained thousands of practitioners internationally, and Here Mama is the culmination of that life’s work.
Motherhood can feel like a roller coaster of emotions and feelings. You’re trying to care for your baby, but you might also be feeling lost, overwhelmed, and exhausted yourself. You can feel like you’ve lost who you are. You don’t know what to do. You want to be the best mother for your baby, but you always seem to feel like you’re failing. Or you put yourself last.
But here’s what modern motherhood doesn’t prepare you for: your baby is borrowing your nervous system. When you are calm, your baby attunes to that calm. When you are overwhelmed, exhausted, or alone, your baby feels that too.
This is called co-regulation. And it means that the fastest way to help your baby isn’t another sleep method or feeding schedule. It’s regulating your own nervous system first.
And that’s what HERE MAMA does. We help you regulate, through ancient practices, through community, through being held. So that your baby can feel your calm.

Each pathway takes 5–15 minutes. Audio and video guided, in Gayle’s voice. Parent and baby held equally, because you can’t support babies without supporting parents.
My baby's sleep changed when I learned baby massage and started regulating myself first. She used to wake every 45 minutes, crying, and I would panic. Now she sleeps in 3-hour stretches. And I can breathe again. Gayle taught me that my calm is my baby's calm. That changed everything.
I used to think I was failing every time my son cried. I would try everything, rocking, shushing, pacing, and nothing worked. Gayle taught me co-regulation. Now I breathe first. I place my hand on my heart. I regulate myself. And then I hold him. And he settles through me. This is the foundation I didn't know I was missing.
Before HERE MAMA, I felt so alone. I was doing everything 'right' but I felt like I was drowning. The Circle held me. Hearing other mothers say the same things I was feeling, it changed everything. I'm not broken. My baby's not broken. We're just learning to regulate together.
