Why Do I Need A Doula?

Birth has always been a sacred experience, deeply rooted in support, connection, and care. Birth was a rite of passage where women were surrounded by trusted community members who provided guidance, comfort, and reassurance. Today, while our understanding of medical care has advanced, the personal and emotional aspects of welcoming a child are often overlooked in a clinical setting. This is where a doula becomes invaluable. A doula's support will help you navigate your options medically while supporting your personal beliefs.

You don't know how much support you'll need until you need it!

Let's Chat! In the box below, please let me know what your due date or babies age, and a good time to chat. I will reach out within 24 hours!

About Me!

Hey! My name is Sarah, and I am dedicated to supporting women and families through all the ups and downs of becoming a parent. Born and raised in Renton, Washington, I am incredibly family-oriented, just like you are! I provide services to support individual needs and lived experiences. I believe that there is no right way to birth a baby, but there is a way birth should feel- it should feel supported and safe, and it should be relevant to your lived experiences. The same is true for postpartum- each family brings their personality, culture, and unique circumstances to the most sensitive period, which should be honored. My mission is to provide equitable birth services to all families. Where hospitals fall short, my goal is to fill the gap. Through StillBirthDay, Prodoula, and ExpertRating, I am certified to provide unique care to all families. As a doula, I am committed to learning more to ensure families receive the most relevant and accurate information.

Our mission is to make birth support accessible and personable to all individuals. We are dedicated to radicalizing the birth environment to be family-centered.

Thank you!
