Lexi Tabor (she/her) |

Postpartum Care Specialist

• Certified Lactation Support Counselor

• Babywearing Educator

• Child Passenger Safety Technician

Lexi specializes in giving parents peace of mind prenatally through early childhood. She is passionate about helping parents find the right fit for their family from feeding and babywearing to car seats and baby gear. Her naturally-nurturing personality and a degree in early childhood development led to a 12-year career as a nanny. She then expanded her expertise by feeding her educational curiosities in the realm of birth work with numerous trainings and certifications. Lexi is most passionate about mutual aid, community care, and fighting for reproductive and social justice, particularly in the queer community. Outside of snuggling babies, she enjoys exploring parks around Cleveland, sending snail mail, and visiting her sister’s dogs and hens, (aka “The Ladies”).
