Meet Leigh
Greetings! My name is Leighana (Leigh) Caldwell, MSN RN and I am a Registered nurse, Birth Doula and Reiki practitioner. I am also the Maternal Health and Education Director at GBMHS. I have been a registered nurse for 12 years working in an array of different settings and patient populations. I was born to be a nurse with a true calling in caring for others! After giving birth and as I continue to raise my beautiful son King, I knew instantly that my role was to help heal, support, and educate women on their own journey as a Birth and Postpartum Doula and Childbirth Educator. At Graceful Beginnings, our desire is to support, educate, and guide our mothers, and provide a sense of security for women and their children who have found themselves in the unfortunate event of homelessness. Our goal is to help women arrive to a level of optimal health, independence, and recovery and prepare them to live on their own without financial or emotional strain.
