Leesha
I was raised in the prairies of Alberta and started my journey into the birthing community as a doula in 2004.
I graduated from Laurentian University's midwifery program in 2010, and since then my career has been divided between Alberta and Africa. I worked in Edmonton for 5 years, and have spent 5 years working in hospitals in rural Tanzania. I value the experience of working in both settings as it allows me to appreciate the experience of birthing and the role of a midwife with a wider lens.
I am a certified lactation consultant, and really enjoy helping families find the feeding solutions that work for them. I also love making soap, growing fresh food, travel, and spending time with family.
I am so pleased to be back in Alberta, working side by side with prairie families!
