During my first (twin!) pregnancy, I had a lot of questions, but I wasn't always sure who to ask. My pregnancy and birth of my twins had several complications, and I'm so grateful that, in the end, all three of us were healthy and well. But looking back, I realize that I would have benefited from more emotional, physical, and informational support during my pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum. I became a doula so that I can be that support for others!
I birthed my son through an unmedicated VBAC, and that experience was indescribably transformative and empowering. I discovered my own life-giving strength and fell in love with birth! I also have a master's degree in Applied Linguistics and believe that words are powerful. You can check out my work on the power of our words surrounding birth at www.birthwords.com. I'm currently shifting from a focus on birth doula work to instead focus on childbirth education and postpartum doula work as I work towards the next step on my career path: becoming a perinatal mental health therapist. I look forward to compassionately serving clients in the therapy setting and continuing to teach birth classes and serve postpartum doula clients occasionally. Outside of birth work, I love spending time with my three awesome kids and my amazing husband! Singing, walking in nature, and yoga also bring me focus, balance, and joy. And when the mountains call, I just have to go hiking—preferably to the summit! I would be honored to be by your side as you discover your strength!

Kind Words from Satisfied Clients
"Sara's care and support was absolutely critical in my birth experience. I don't have the words to express the difference her resources, friendship and kindness made in our son's birth! Sara went above and beyond to answer all my questions, helped dispel my fears and encouraged me to feel empowered and excited to give birth (which I never thought would happen!) I had an unmedicated birth and it was the most amazing and powerful thing I have ever done. I mean it when I said I could not have believed in myself or followed through so completely without her assistance. She was literally by my side during the hardest parts and I can't recommend her enough."

"I gave birth with Sara’s help yesterday, and it was amazing! Sara is the total package when it comes to doula work- she is smart, knowledgeable, open-minded, receptive, and endlessly compassionate. She deeply cares about birthing women and their experiences. I was so nervous to give birth again, but she helped me to calm myself and face my fears. I am so grateful for all the help she gave me throughout the whole process!"
