Village Mama Birth Services

Leah is amazing! I️ contacted Leah to setup a meet and great to see if we were a good fit. We clicked, she was easy going but to the point with what she needed and expected from our relationship! Yes.... relationship!

You see, instead of calling your obgyn because of that ache or that horrible nausea you tell your doula and they guide you. Leah was available 24/7 (you remember hurricane Irma? This amazing Doula did NOT evacuate, she stayed with me and helped me through my labor/birthing)No matter the time of day she ensured I️ completely understood what was going on with my body and baby.

She came to my prenatal appointments, did extra research for my medical conditions and ensured I️ was fully aware of my options. Leah did not push her beliefs or judge me for the birthing experience I️ wanted!!!

Let’s talk about the hospital experience!!! This is why you NEED a Doula! Nurses and doctors throw so much medical terminology at you and make you think that you have to do something when in fact you don’t! I️ had no idea what I️ could and couldn’t deny as far as treatment. Doctors wanted to start the most invasive treatment for being induced but Leah was there to walk me through it and start from the bottom and work our way up! I️ was a first time momma with no idea what labor was going to be like, I️ have a complicated medical history and knew that I️ didn’t want family in the room. There would only be so much my husband could do for me and I️ didn’t want to kill him in the process of bringing our bundle of joy into the world! Leah ensured the nurses and doctors had a copy of my birthing plan. Best part is...just because it was on my list didn’t mean I️ couldn’t change my mind!! Oh I️ don’t want an epidural....fast forward to 20 plus hours in labor...give me the drugs! Leah ensured I️ had whatever I️ needed ...nursing staff didn’t want me to have food (even though it’s actually encouraged now), guess who made sure I️ had food, Leah!

The list could go on for days what my Doula did for me. I️ still ask her questions to this day. The best part is after birth she was still calling and coming over to check up on us!!!!!! When your a new momma you have lots of questions! Am I️ doing this right, is this okay? She doesn’t hang in the towel when you give birth!

I️ highly recommend this gal wether this is your first or fifth child.
