For our second baby, we knew we wanted to take a different birth path then what we experienced with our son. Sarah was the angel I’d been looking for. Our conversations were natural, and the passion she possesses for birth was undeniable. She had a calming softness to her which was exactly what I needed. Since this was our first time working with a doula, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Sarah was very clear/precise with helping us invision her support/care.
Sarah was so organized/intentional with her care. She spent time teaching us various techniques that would be helpful while I labored. She was focused on insuring we knew how to help me in early labor.
Sloane's due date became her birthday, and Sarah was exceptional the entire time. Laboring at home briefly, David and I were able to use some of the techniques Sarah had shown us, to help keep me comfortable.
From the moment Sarah arrived, she was a breath of light. She guided David on how best to support me with hand placements, pressure points, wet cloths, breathing patters, etc. She gave me strength to know that my body was so capable of bringing this little life into our world.
Our labor was quick and so was her birth. After her birth, we were all enamored and felt so loved by Sarah. To my surprise, Sarah gave me the most incredible gift. Somehow this superhero of a woman was able to capture our birth moments with video’s and pictures. Having the gift to look back at these moments where we became a family of 4, leaves me speechless. Both my husband and I look back at Sloane’s birth story with only beautiful memories. Sarah truly set the tone of our birth expectations and our actual reality exceeded even that. If god and our family decide we’re ever growing to a family of 5, I know Sarah will be my first call. I’m forever grateful we get to call this beautiful woman, a dear friend.
