Meet Sarah
A holistic approach to birth, family, and connection.
As a Certified Lactation Counselor, Childbirth Educator, Placenta Encapsulation Specialist, Car Seat Tech, and Spanish Interpreter, Sarah brings a wide range of knowledge and support to her doula work. Her care is compassionate, grounded, and centered on helping families feel informed, confident, and deeply supported.
Why I Became a Doula
Every family deserves patience, compassion, and steady support.
I became a doula because I believe families deserve to feel cared for during one of the most powerful transitions of their lives. Pregnancy, birth, and parenthood can be beautiful, emotional, uncertain, and transformative.
My goal is to help families feel less alone, more informed, and more connected to their own strength as they move through the journey of childbirth and early parenthood.
How I Support Families
Education, advocacy, reassurance, and hands-on care.
I support families with birth preparation, childbirth education, lactation guidance, emotional reassurance, comfort measures, advocacy, and practical support. I help families understand their options and feel confident making decisions that align with their values.
I bring a nurturing presence to each family I serve, blending professional training with warmth, intuition, and respect for each person’s unique birth and parenting experience.

Beyond Birth Work
Rooted in family, nature, and a nurturing touch.
With three amazing kids and a household full of pets, Sarah understands the importance of compassion, patience, and a nurturing touch in both her personal and professional life.
When she is not assisting families during their pregnancy journey, she can often be found outdoors, exploring nature with her loved ones or tending to her garden. She believes in the healing power of the great outdoors and finds peace in a hike through the woods or a day on the river.
“I’m dedicated to empowering families to embrace birth and parenthood with confidence and joy.”
