We hope you’ll feel at home during any encounter you have with our team, who are each passionate about empowering women to trust themselves through pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and beyond. About Lucia:
I love traveling and helping people and combined the two by traveling the world as a Registered Respiratory Therapist specializing in premature infants. I met my husband in Saudi Arabia during Desert Storm, and came to live in Georgia where my husband was born and raised. We have one son who now goes to college in Georgia. While working at Athens Regional Medical Center. I became a Certified Doula with DONA. My dream of helping new parents in the business “ By Your Leave”. I have been caring for babies for over 35 years, and it is with joy that I offer my services to families. Still active in hospital care, I am certified in neonatal, pediatric, and adult CPR with certification in advanced cardiac life support. I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and a Hypnobirthing Childbirth Educator. I am also certified in the use of TENS, a useful instrument in childbirth that I offer to my Doula clients as part of my services if they desire. I speak fluent Spanish and hope to reach out to the increasing Hispanic population. I look forward to being a part of one of the most significant moments in your life.
