      5 /5

      Sarah was great to work with, she answered all my questions and was able to provide me with lots of information on my birth choices. Having her at my birth made my husband less nervous as she made sure he knew how to help me. I couldn’t imagine my birth without her!

      Sarah is a highly skilled and experienced birth worker. She has supported countless families through a wide range of birthing and parenting journeys, and embodies the values of informed consent and self-determination as central to her practice. She brings to this work astute insight and a lionhearted presence that enhances the safety parents feel as they navigate many vulnerable moments along the birth journey. Her commitment to deepening her growth as a birth worker, individually and in community, is something I admire immensely.
