I recently hired Leighann for overnight support with my newborn and am incredibly thankful for her help. She brought a calming presence, showcased expertise in newborn care, and quickly connected with my baby, which eased my worries.

I highly recommend Leighann to any new parent looking for overnight support. Her professionalism, knowledge, and compassion made a world of difference. I went to bed knowing my baby was cared for, and I woke up feeling refreshed. Thank you, Leighann for your invaluable support!

Leighann came to us through another Doula referral ~ we trust Leighann implicitly with our newborn and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her as a blessing for you and your new addition. Having a newborn can be so stressful at times and knowing Leighann was coming later that evening was all we needed to push through. Invite Leighann into your home and she will snuggle and care for your  baby like she is her own!

Leighann has been there for both of my children's births and soon to be for the next one. I can't recommend her enough. She brings a calm with her through the scariest and most difficult parts of the labor. She knows the birth plan you wish to have and she helps you stay with it. I've always chosen unmedicated births so her advanced knowledge in dealing with labor and contractions really come in handy. 10/10 recommend.
