Our five tenants are the foundation for every expecting mother we serve.

Postpartum support includes:

• Emotional support and space to process the birth experience

• Guidance with newborn care, including soothing, sleep, and daily rhythms

• Feeding support (breastfeeding, pumping, and/or bottle feeding)

• Practical, hands-on support to help ease the transition at home

• Light household assistance related to baby care (laundry, bottle prep, organization)

Letisha has a special interest in supporting VBACs, unmedicated births, and helping women explore approaches that center trust, autonomy, and mind-body connection.

As a mother of three and lifelong caregiver, she brings formal training and lived experience to her work.  She creates a grounding presence that helps families feel more at ease, supported, and connected during birth and the early weeks of parenthood.

Whether offering in-home care or virtual guidance, Letisha meets each family where they are, providing thoughtful, personalized support from pregnancy through postpartum.
