Supporting Your Journey Through Parenthood

I am an internationally board certified lactation consultant for the past 8 years and a mother-baby nurse for over 12 years. I have experience working in both the United States and Israel. I spent many years working in the hospital setting both as a registered nurse and later as a lactation consultant helping moms on postpartum units. For the past few years, I have been working with mothers and their babies through my private practice. When I'm not helping moms and babies, I am home with my husband, Doni and 4 beautiful kids; Amitsur, Yael, Amalya, and Netanel. I had vastly different breastfeeding experiences with all of them (currently nursing Netanel now :-)) and I bring that experience with me to each of my consults as well. <3

Shalom, I’m Lea—a doula, childbirth educator, prenatal bodyworker, and B.O.T.-certified practitioner based in Jerusalem. I accompany expecting parents through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with evidence-based guidance and calm, compassionate support in Hebrew, English, and German. I help expecting parents navigate the Israeli maternity system with confidence. Drawing from my academic background, I believe in the power of knowledge and founded "Knowledge-Based Birth", because knowledge is power. I believe, that women who grow, birth, and nurture babies deserve nourishing, compassionate, and professional support along the way, to feel safe, seen, and understood. That’s why I integrate Hypnobirthing, evidence-based information, trauma-informed preparation, active birth tools, prenatal bodywork, and the postpartum ritual "Closing of the Bones"—a traditional practice supporting healing and integration after birth—into my work. You deserve to be fully seen, supported, and informed.
