Leah Heinz
Leah is a DONA international trained birth doula pursuing certification. She is enthusiastic about supporting women to achieve the birth experience they desire. She knows that these moments are precious and doesn’t take this opportunity lightly. She is motivated to help unsupported women with unplanned pregnancies, and will be flexible with her pricing for them. She is passionate about hypnobirthing, and lactation support and is looking forward to furthering her education in both areas.
Hello and welcome! My name is Leah Heinz. It is a privilege to be considered as your doula. I believe the time of pregnancy and after is sacred and I feel honored to be included in those moments with you and your family. I have been with my my first love, Chris, for 16 years. We have three incredible sons and two fur babies of the canine variety. 13 years ago, when I delivered my son as a teen mom, I knew that I was forever changed by the birthing process and wanted to devote my life to it. My goal as your doula is to help you feel confident, empowered and prepared to achieve your ideal labor and delivery. I want you to feel loved, and supported from the moment we meet. |
