Sarah began her journey into postpartum doula practice in 2015 through Birth Arts International and has since continued her education, becoming certified in Infant/Adult CPR and as a baby-wearing technician. She regularly attends workshops to ensure that she provides her clients with the most current and comprehensive support available. Growing up with a brother who has a non-verbal disability, Sarah learned from an early age to intuitively read and respond to unspoken needs. Witnessing her mother's nurturing care and trusting her own instincts have shaped Sarah's approach to providing compassionate, intuitive support to families, especially those who may struggle to express their needs. Her passion for newborn care, sparked by her personal experience as a mother of two, drives her work. Sarah offers services ranging from breastfeeding support to establishing sleep routines, helping parents feel confident and empowered in their journey with a new baby. The "village" of support she had after her children's births inspired her to offer others the same level of care and guidance. Outside of her work, Sarah enjoys spending time with her family & friends, playing with the family dogs, being outdoors, cooking, and traveling.

My experience with Sarah was VERY positive. Upon meeting for the first time, we instantly connected and eventually bonded to the point where Sarah felt like extended family. I hired her to care for my infant baby girl for a few hours a day while my husband transitioned back to work after paternity leave and I was solo with 2 kids under 2. I needed someone for about a month to help make the transition smooth, but also look after my infant while I ran miscellaneous errands and/or tended to my 2 years old. Sarah proved herself to be an expert early on. I watched her handle my 2 month old baby girl with ease and care, so I began to let my guard down and trust her abilities. She covers all the basics (tummy time, putting baby down for nap, etc.) but does them in a way that is so attentive and full of glee that it was inspiring to watch. In addition to caring for the baby, she cooked for us, brought fresh fruit almost every visit and offered advice on different issues I was facing as a new mom of 2. Her advice was never pushy, which was great for my communication style. Lastly, she was really flexible! If I needed to switch hours or cancel, she easily accommodated with a little notice. Eventually, I ended our time together bc I needed to learn how do it on my own. I felt Sarah was doing such a good job, that I was starting to rely on her too heavily and needed to do the work myself. I would certainly recommend Sarah for families with a variety of needs - she can do it all, just ask! :)

“I’m an IBCLC and Certified Nurse Midwife with an independent practice providing both full-scope midwifery care and comprehensive lactation services across hospital and community settings. My lactation work spans the full clinical spectrum—from establishing breastfeeding in the immediate postpartum period to managing complex feeding challenges such as low milk supply, delayed lactogenesis, post-cesarean lactation, and infants with dysregulated feeding patterns. I have extensive experience in detailed newborn oral evaluation, including identification and functional assessment of anomalies such as ankyloglossia. I integrate these findings into individualized care plans and frequently collaborate with interdisciplinary providers for frenotomy when indicated, as well as provide structured pre- and post-procedural feeding support to optimize outcomes. My approach is evidence-based, highly individualized, and focused on measurable outcomes. I prioritize effective milk transfer, protection of maternal supply, and long-term sustainability of the breastfeeding relationship. My care plans often incorporate structured supplementation strategies—including the use of supplemental nursing systems to maintain feeding at the breast—alongside selective, clinically appropriate use of galactagogues. I place strong emphasis on ongoing reassessment and adjustment to ensure interventions remain effective. I also have experience supporting higher-risk dyads, including late preterm infants, NICU graduates, and cases involving maternal endocrine or perinatal factors impacting lactation. Working across both inpatient and community environments has given me a clear understanding of care transitions and the gaps families encounter after discharge, allowing me to provide more cohesive, continuous support. My midwifery background strengthens my ability to assess the full maternal–infant dyad and identify contributing factors early, supporting more efficient and durable lactation outcomes. I’m confident practicing autonomously and value strong collaboration within multidisciplinary teams, with a consistent focus on delivering practical, clinically sound, and patient-centered lactation care.”
