Lauren is a trained postpartum doula certifying with CAPPA and holds a master's degree from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health where she researched perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, infant feeding, equity & doula care. She also co-chairs the Board of Directors for Postpartum Support International's Maryland Chapter. Most importantly though, she's a mom of 3. She came to this work after a frustrating and painful postpartum experience with her first born when she was a young mom. After birthing her first two children within the traditional OB/GYN hospital system, she decided to have an unmedicated, Midwife-attended home birth with her 3rd. Each birth and postpartum experience taught her something new, and she welcomes all families - no matter their choice of medical care or arrival to parenting - to her doula practice. When she's not busy researching and working with families welcoming new babes, she loves being outside in nature with her family, singing in the car with the windows down, and reading.

I’m Sara Vidal, a certified birth doula located in Carroll County, Maryland. As a child, I was fascinated by mom’s positive stories of her varied birth experiences. Later, during my first pregnancy, I learned to access my inner calm and strength through the journey of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. After teaching for nearly a decade, I felt called to combine my academic expertise with my passion for birth by completing my doula certification through HypnoActive Birth created by Lauralyn Curtis Kohl. I’m also continuing my education, currently working toward my childbirth educator certification. Supporting families through the transformative journey of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum is an honor. While the journey is unpredictable, I believe you can create flexible dreams for each. I’m committed to holding sacred space for you–helping you imagine and realize your dreams and empowering you to find your inner calm and power. I offer emotional, physical, and informational support so you feel confident, informed, and safe in your birth and postpartum choices. Outside of birth work, I enjoy spending time in nature with my family, reading, listening to indie music, baking, and crafting. As you navigate your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey, I’ll be there so you feel held throughout. I’d love to hear more about your birth and postpartum dreams and how I can support you. Contact me for a complimentary consultation.

Hello, my name is Sherri, and I am a self-proclaimed Birth Nerd! I was born with a love for all things birth related. My passion increased after working in healthcare for over 20 years as a National Certified Medical Assistant (NCMA), Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and IV infusionist in busy Rheumatology and OB/GYN practices. I started my master’s program in 2014 and earned my degree in Health Education and Health Promotion in 2016. That same year, I become a Health Education Specialist with a focus in maternal and fetal health and human lactation. Shortly thereafter, with continued coursework, a Doula was born. I have been a Doula for family and friends for many years, so naturally I wanted to share this passion with other birthers in the world. It is truly a blessing to bear witness and hold space for someone during one of the most empowering and vulnerable times in their life. At B2B, we believe that everyone should have the birth experience that they desire. Whether your choice be a natural, unmedicated birth, a medicated birth, or a belly birth (Cesarean birth), we will RESPECT your right to choose. We will educate you on how to advocate for the birth you deserve. When I’m not at a birth I enjoy spending time with my husband (retired Naval Officer), my 3 amazing kids plus bonus son in love, and my 3 beautiful grandbabies. I also love reading, traveling, and cooking traditional cuisines from countries that I have visited.
