Encounter your belovedness and your power in childbirth.

Partnership on your childbirth journey.

My goal as a birthworker is to facilitate space for birthing people to encounter their belovedness, and their power in the context of pregnancy and birth.

I believe the journey through childbirth offers a profound opportunity for self-discovery and self-connection. And it can form a pathway for deeper connection outside of ourselves - to our communities and to the divine.

Yet many times the institutions and cultural norms that influence our birth experiences do not support this transformative journey. Instead of powerful, loved, and connected, birthing people may feel helpless, ignored, and disembodied.

My role is to support and advocate for your unique, transformative childbirth journey, and to hold a safe container for the range of physical, emotional, and spiritual experiences that will form the substance of that transformation.

 

Labor and Birth Support

I offer in-person and virtual prenatal, labor/birth, and immediate postpartum support for birthing people, their partners, and families/chosen families.

Client Stories

“When we decided we would hire a doula, we called it “insurance” thinking if nothing goes wrong we’d still be thankful for it. We were really naive! Having Sarah as our doula was so much more than “insurance”. In many ways, it was a lifeline. Every meeting with Sarah was a safe place that didn’t exist elsewhere for us. Even though we loved our doctor, and the rest of our care team, our meetings were the places where it really felt like we were learning about ourselves, our partnership, birth, and parenting. She held space for us to learn, ask questions, and process. Working with Sarah made us feel confident about the decisions we were making surrounding birth. Sarah is compassionate, knowledgeable, inclusive, and understands the vulnerability of pregnancy and parenthood. Sarah made both me and my partner feel seen, and advocated for. Sarah prepared and empowered us for birth, and supported us postpartum in a way that truly helped us mentally, physically and emotionally survive those first few months. We would work with Sarah again in a heartbeat.” — Annie and Joe

“Having Sarah as our doula helped us feel a lot less anxious as we prepared to welcome our daughter into the world. As first time parents, not knowing what to expect and carrying a lot of stress and worry about labor and delivery, it was so helpful to have Sarah on this journey with us! She has such a calm and supportive presence, which helped to put us at ease when anxiety was running high. Pregnancy, childbirth, and the first few months contain so many unknowns, questions, and unexpected turns. Knowing that Sarah was there to process with us created a safe place to ask questions and feel a lot less alone during this season. We really appreciated working with Sarah and we think you will too!” — Sarah and Josh
