About me

Currently working as a Labor Doula, Lactation Educator, and Massage Therapist specializing in prenatal, postpartum and infant massage, Leah supports women through the many mind/body transitions of pregnancy & motherhood. I believe that feeling supportive, nurturing touch is one of the most important experiences in life, especially during the journey of childbirth. That notion of support is truly the pillar of my philosophy, having worked with families through many different birth paths. I know that birth is not "one size fits all" and my goal is always to serve and educate my clients, so they feel heard and supported through their journey. I cherish the amazing privilege it is to support and empower laboring and newly postpartum Mamas!
