Leah provides labour and birth support in hospitals and at home across downtown Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area.
Leah began working as a professional doula in 2014, and has since worked in hundred of homes in Toronto and abroad. She is passionate about improving women’s healthcare experiences and offering peaceful beginnings to babies.
