Ieshia Lee
Small Business Owner, Doula, and Lactation Consultant in Boston, MA
I'm Ieshia, a highly experienced private birth doula with a strong background in community health and behavioral services. Some of the highlights over the past twenty-eight years
- I've had the honor of serving as a United Against Racism Doula at Mass General Brigham Hospitals in Boston.
- At Boston Medical Center, I actively contributed to the Birth Sister Doula Program and played a pivotal role in the Cesarean Section team.
- Additionally, I made meaningful contributions to the Parent Connection Program, providing telehealth support for breastfeeding and infant care, and I facilitated the New Mom Support Group.
- My role as an intensive in-home support coordinator allowed me to organize services for high-needs children, ensuring that families stayed together.
- I've also worked as an adult outreach worker, focusing on special populations, and participated in the Welcome Baby Program, conducting outreach and home visits for new moms.
- Along this journey, I've earned certifications in CNA, EKG, and Phlebotomy.
Beyond my professional life, my commitment to birth, family health, and connection extends to my personal life. As a mother of five, I've even served as the doula for two of my own births. I've also applied my personal care training to care for my adult son with TBI and spinal cord injuries. Furthermore, I've opened my home to foster children through the Department of Children and Families when the need arises.
