Bio
Hi, I'm Lakiya and I'm a woman of color committed to supporting families through pregnancy, birth and beyond with a calm and grounded presence. I bring over 20 years of experience in the healthcare field, along with the wisdom of my own personal journey, including two births and an abortion. I'm passionate about advocating for birthing people and assuring they receive respectful, evidence based care. My goal is to provide support that is informed, compassionate, and centered on the unique needs of each individual and family.
