About me

My name is Lesley Hodges, and I am a certified birth and postpartum doula with a genuine passion for supporting families through one of life’s most transformative experiences. I believe every parent deserves compassionate, respectful, and individualized care throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey. My passion for doula work began long before I earned my certification. Supporting my sister throughout her pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum recovery, as well as caring for friends during their pregnancies and helping with newborn care, showed me the incredible impact that consistent support can have on growing families. Those experiences inspired me to become a certified doula so I could provide that same level of encouragement, advocacy, and education to others. I am known for my warm, bubbly personality and my ability to help people feel seen, heard, and cared for. I strive to create a calm, judgment-free environment where families feel confident, informed, and empowered to make the best decisions for themselves and their babies. Along with my birth and postpartum doula certification, I also hold CPR and newborn care certifications, which strengthen my ability to provide safe, compassionate, and evidence-based support. Becoming a doula is more than a career for me it’s a calling. My goal is to ensure every family I serve feels supported, respected, and never alone during this special chapter of their lives. I am honored to walk alongside parents as they welcome their newest family member and look forward to making a meaningful difference in their birth and postpartum experience.

Service introduction

Welcome! Congratulations on your growing family! My name is Lesley Hodges, and I am a certified postpartum doula and newborn care provider dedicated to helping families feel supported, rested, and confident during the fourth trimester. Bringing home a new baby is a beautiful experience, but it can also feel overwhelming. My goal is to provide compassionate, nonjudgmental care that allows parents to recover, bond with their baby, and receive the support they deserve. Whether you’re looking for overnight newborn care so you can get uninterrupted rest, postpartum recovery support, newborn education, feeding assistance, or simply an extra set of caring hands, I am here to meet your family’s unique needs. Every family deserves to feel nurtured during this season. I strive to create a calm, peaceful environment where parents feel empowered, babies are lovingly cared for, and everyone receives the support they need to thrive. I would be honored to walk alongside your family during this special journey and provide personalized care that brings comfort, confidence, and peace of mind.
