LEAH FREDERICK
I’m a mother of 3 and RN of 10+ yrs specialized in postpartum and newborn care. Through my love of neonatal and woman's health and the lack of physical and emotional support for new and expecting families, I became a doula! I have forever had a passion for pregnancy, birth postpartum and babies! This intimate time is meant to be celebrated while being supported by a village to create a beautiful transition to parenthood. Currently only taking postpartum clients.
