About me

Hello! My name is Aleigha, a fresh and new birth and postpartum doula, actively studying and up do date on all things prenatal, birth, and postpartum. While located in Virginia, I also serve up to 3+ hours away and even offer virtual sessions! Tennessee, Kentucky, and even North Carolina aren't issues for me. I’m here to be communicative, educational, and empathetic for you and your needs. I’m here for you throughout your prenatal, labor, and postpartum periods, as all are equally important and beautiful in their own ways. Being geared towards my faith has pushed me to make the step to assisting women be the strongest versions of themselves, and I can’t wait to be able to be there for you through it all. Whether it be through communication, remedies, stretches, or answering questions you may have, I base my care plan for you around what you, as an individual, need and want from me as your doula. Being a mother of two wonderful children myself, I completely understand the importance surrounding a mother’s health during all periods of pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. I offer virtual services (phone call appointments, face times, face time during labor), and in person, hands on services (in person appointments, being at the hospital or at your home during labor). These can be mixed up in any ways-at your discretion-and gives us the freedom of having open communication no matter the distance between us! Overall, the important part of the journey you’re going on is that you feel empowered, important, and solid in your and your baby’s care plans. Note: Since I am newer in this profession, I would also like to assure you that I do have a mentor, up to date knowledge, and assistance every step of the way!

Aleigha was there for me through my pregnancy and now postpartum. Even though she couldn’t be there in person (I’m in Alaska), she has been there to support me over the phone when it comes to anything I need even when Im overwhelmed. I recommend her very much
