Sarah's Philosophy

Sarah believes that every mother and partner, regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation or socioeconomic position, deserves access to unbiased and non-judgmental support, care and encouragement as they transition into their roles as parents. It is Sarah's goal to meet both the practical and emotional needs of the families she serves. Sarah aims to help integrate the new baby successfully into the family, while fostering parental confidence, in a loving, gentle manner.

"Working with Sarah is such a joy. Her presence is calming and non-judgmental. Her services are most definitely worth it and I would welcome her back into my home anytime." - Colleen

Sarah's Story

The call to support women and their families in the role of postpartum doula stemmed from Sarah's personal experience transitioning into parenthood. Sarah has an innate desire to support families as they make their own unique transition. 

​

A few years after the birth of her daughter, Sarah began her journey towards postpartum doula certification. Having spent 20 years as a professional ballet dancer, both with the New York City Ballet and Pacific Northwest Ballet, Sarah is grateful and humbled by this "second calling." She brings an attention to detail, passion, focus and joy to the work she does with postpartum families.

​

In her free time, Sarah enjoys reading, cooking, gardening, and tending her flock of chickens! She especially loves enjoying the outdoors with her husband Seth, and their daughter, Lola.
