Hi, my name is Lea. With almost 20 years of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenting, I bring a calm, steady presence to moments that can feel overwhelming or uncertain. I’ve worked with a wide range of family structures and birth experiences, including medically complex and high-risk pregnancies. With a background in health sciences and public health, I love helping families make sense of evidence-based information and turning it into practical, real-life guidance they can actually use.
Along the way, I provide emotional support and advocacy while helping families navigate feeding, sleep, and the many adjustments that come with welcoming a new baby. Safety education is a big part of my work, and I’m passionate about empowering families with knowledge that builds both confidence and peace of mind. My Montessori certification and RIE-informed approach also allow me to support families in creating enriching, respectful environments for their growing babies. My practice is deeply rooted in cultural humility and trauma-informed care. I strive to create a space where families feel safe, respected, and truly heard, using inclusive, affirming, and nonjudgmental language. I’m honored to work with multicultural families, immigrants, neurodivergent families, and those who have experienced medical trauma or felt overlooked within the healthcare system. I believe evidence-based care and cultural sensitivity go hand in hand.
In addition to my doula training, I bring many years of experience as a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician and Safe Sleep Ambassador. I love teaching families about car seat safety, safe sleep, and everyday injury prevention in a clear, approachable, and supportive way. I’m committed to ongoing learning so the care I offer is always current, respectful, and family-centered. If this feels like a good fit, I’d love for you to reach out and start a conversation about how I can support your family.
