Sarah is a wonderful doula! Our experience with her was absolutely amazing. Sarah is a walking encyclopedia for taking care of a newborn. There is so much she taught us from milk storage, sanitation practices, baby wearing, and product recommendations just to name a few. And if there is something she didnty know, she researched and found the answers for us.  Sarah was also so willing to help with anything we needed. She handled the overwhelm we were feeling as new parents with grace and helped alleviate our chaos, but never added to that overwhelm. She helped us feel at ease and was able to provide us with the knowledge we needed to best care for our baby boy.  We would highly recommend Sarah to anyone with a new baby.
