Kassie Leachman

Hi, I’m Kassie and I was born to nurture. 

- Chicago based Certified Full Spectrum Doula and Certified Childbirth Educator -

I felt my first calling to birth work during a birth class while pregnant with my first child. I was completely in awe of the beauty and strength of reproduction, pregnancy, and labor, as well as the community borne from it. Then after the empowering births of my two children I knew birth work was the space of which I belonged. I am certified with Doula Training International (DTI) as a Full Spectrum Doula as well as a Childbirth Educator, and trained as an integrative lactation and feeding specialist. I have had the honor of supporting many families on all walks in their reproductive journeys. My joy is in creating a safe space for families to grow and providing them with the most intentional and compassionate evidence-based care. My purpose is to support and encourage each family’s intuition, to provide calming reassurance in their power and autonomy, and to help them own their own experience by holding space and providing unbiased information and support. I bring warmth and compassion along with judgement free care to every family I support and pride myself on my anticipation of others needs. I bring a wealth of knowledge to help families with the new transition of postpartum life, both from working with children and families for 10+ years and raising my own. I’m here to create and nurture my community, to live a life of continued education and fight for justice within the birth world. I can’t wait to help you on your journey in whatever form it takes.
