Tacoma Placenta encapsulation specialist

As an established local specialist, I have been serving growing families across the greater Tacoma area and Pierce County since 2013. Whether you are planning a hospital birth, utilizing a local birth center, or welcoming your baby at home, my seamless system makes it easy to experience a supported, balanced postpartum transition.

What TACOMA Families are saying:

“I had reached out to several placenta encapsulation specialists and had not received responses from a few of them. I did another search and found Alecia. She lived close by and I liked the look and feel of her website – it seemed professional but also warm and friendly. I emailed her and within an hour or two had a response answering all the questions I had asked. I was impressed with how quickly she got back to me and how thoroughly she answered my questions – it made me feel at ease and confident in working with her. Later that afternoon, my water broke and I had to have a c-section within just hours of reaching out to her. Alecia was very accommodating and was able to meet my husband at the hospital that night, despite the incredibly short notice. I was so appreciative that I didn’t need to worry about storing my placenta and that she made the process so easy. Alecia was great to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone considering placenta encapsulation!”

More Love from TACOMA Parents:

“I always knew I wanted to get my placenta encapsulated but during pregnancy I became super depressed. I didn’t do much preparation. I decided I really wanted them 5 days before being induced. I didn’t think it would happen but Alecia made it happen! She made the process of packaging my placenta easy and was amazing when she came and picked it up. With everything that is going on when your having a baby, I didn’t worry about this not one bit. I got my capsules back way quicker then I thought and she delivered them herself to where ever I needed. Her customer service is just amazing. I was so happy with how much care she put into this whole process. I’m so happy I got my capsules. I was a strong candidate for ppd and I’m now 3 months pp and I’m so happy. I think the placenta pills did wonders for my mental health. I felt like I had more energy with learning how to be a mom and dealing with the anxiety of staying home. I healed so quickly, I stopped bleeding 2 weeks pp and stopped feeling pain within a couple days! I was really worried that when I run out of them I would become severely depressed and that’s just not the case! I would recommend all moms to get their placenta encapsulated and I would 11/10 recommend Alecia, The Nurtured Leaf! She’s all around amazing and so is the capsules! I can’t thank her enough and I will be going back to her when I’m ready for another!”
