Hi, I'm Leticia I'm a certified Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist (ProDoula certified, CPR & First Aid certified through the American Red Cross), and I'm here to support your family through the fourth trimester. My path here wasn't the one I expected. I set aside a law degree to follow something deeper — a calling I couldn't ignore, to be present with families during one of the most tender, challenging, and beautiful chapters of their lives. I try to bring a grounded, steady energy into every home I enter — the kind that lets new parents finally take their first real breath. My care is intuitive and deeply considered. I notice things. I adjust. I don't just show up — I stay, fully present, for as long as your family needs me. If you're navigating those early weeks with a new baby, I'd love to hold space for you, so you can hold your baby. Thank you!

Fee Details
I offer an hourly rate for standalone shifts, plus a few ways to get more consistent support. Overnight, I help with nighttime feeds, diaper changes, gentle sleep routines, and keeping track of feeds so you can actually rest. During the day, I'm there to care for the baby while you nap or recover, help with feeding, tidy up around the house, prep a meal, or lend a hand with older siblings. If you're still getting ready for baby, I can also help set up the nursery, choose the right gear, and get your home feeling calm and prepared for those first weeks. Every family is different, so I'm happy to tailor a plan to what you actually need. And every booking starts with a free discovery call — no pressure, just a chance to chat and see if we're a good fit.
