About me

Hi, I’m Sage. As the founder of Mommy Meltdown and a trained Group Peer Support Facilitator, I’ve spent the last few years helping moms navigate the highs and lows of parenthood with compassion and understanding. I’m currently expanding my support into the birth room as a WA State Certified Doula (finishing my national DONA certification). My goal is to be the calm beside you, combining evidence based labor support with the deep emotional advocacy of a peer support professional. Right now I am looking for 3 more families to support at a special certification rate. If you're looking for a doula who 'gets it' and is ready to show up for you, let’s chat!

The Guided Pause
Motherhood can be beautiful—and exhausting. Some days, it feels like everything is too much. You love your children deeply, but your mind feels scattered, your energy drained, and your emotions overwhelming. The Guided Pause is a structured, 6-session, one-on-one support experience designed just for moms like you. This is not therapy. It’s a safe, judgment-free space to mentally process, feel heard, and gain clarity. Guided by a trained GPS facilitator who understands the realities of motherhood. What You’ll Get 6 private 30-minute virtual sessions (once a week or spaced to your needs)

Could not have asked for a more caring, compassionate person to help us out after the birth of our child. I can’t recommend Sage highly enough. She is skilled at what she does and goes above and beyond.
