HI! I am Leidy- Birth and Postpartum Doula • Childbirth Educator

The birth of my first child 12 years ago, with the invaluable support of my doula inspired me to begin my very own Birth Work journey. Since I’ve passionately researched ways to improve the experience for mothers, babies and families. I have furthered my training obtaining my Doula certification with Active Birth Institute, under the mentoring of Crystal Sada, a wealth of wisdom, with 40 years experience in the birth community. I’ve continued my education taking Lamaze  Educator courses, Pelvic biomechanics and Lactation support trainings. I consider myself forever a student and enjoy keeping updated on the most effective ways to support my families.

My birth philosophy is firmly grounded in my respect and trust of the innate power and wisdom of our bodies, and our babies.  I aim to provide  consistent support you can relay on throughout your pregnancy. As well as unbiased evidence-based informational resources to help parents discover their preferences  and manifest a birth that is gentle, positive and aligns with their priorities. I strive to also help you create a postpartum space that is conducive to holistic recovery and family bonding, once you are home and getting adjusted to your new family member. 

Every family I have supported through birth , as well as my own unique, magical four births have imprinted in me the profound impact this passage has on our lives- mothers are born, families are created and transformed. Evidence shows that continuous support with an open mind and heart is a crucial component to positive outcomes. My goal is to help you achieve a birth experience that makes you feel satisfied: empowered by compassion, knowledge and informed consent. It would be my honor to accompany you through the most powerful a nd transformative time in your life: the threshold of motherhood.

When I am not out doula-ing you can find me hanging out with my four babies and their daddy. I love crocheting , cooking soups, and tending to my garden and gazillion house plants.
