Dr. Jessica Daigle “Dr. Jess” is a board-certified pediatrician, neonatal/pediatric hospitalist, and Founder/CEO of Mom & Me LLC. She is the proud mother of 2 kids both born prematurely, with 1 staying in the NICU for 5 weeks. She has a concierge medical practice in Atlanta, GA that provides in-home and virtual follow-up care services to NICU Grads with additional focus on education and support for mothers/families to make the transition home from the NICU easier and less overwhelming. She also offers life coaching for professional NICU moms to help them heal & be the confident moms they deserve to be as they navigate life after the NICU.
She is a highly rated speaker and educator who has been featured on many podcasts including The Birth Trauma Mama Podcast with Kayleigh Summers, Pregnancy Pearls with Dr. Nicole Plenty, and All About Pregnancy & Birth with Dr. Nicole Rankins.

She is a co-author with 46 other women physicians in “Made for More: Physician Entrepreneurs Practicing Medicine and Living Life on Their Own Terms.” Dr. Daigle is passionate about the NICU experience of babies & families - from Hospital to Home - especially as postpartum is so different for these families. She believes more awareness, curiosity, and humanism is required in healthcare today and that moms, their babies, and families should THRIVE not only survive on their NICU postpartum journey and beyond. She lives in South Atlanta with her husband and two kids. Follow her on social media on LinkedIn @jessdaiglemd or on Instagram @momandme_md.
