Hello! I am honoured to provide holistic modern postpartum care for birthing parents and their families. My offerings centre around maternal care woven through nourishing meals, herbal remedies, emotional and physical support. I am passionate about postpartum planning and nourishing meal preparation for families welcoming new babies.

 

I am grateful for my mentor Jessica Austin, forever inspired by all the “mothering” I am fortunate to witness in my life. I am a mom of two who loves to swim, bike, and spend time at the beach year round :)

Christie

Sarah was with us as a doula and child care provider for many years. She was a grounding presence in our home. She was always reliable and generous with her time and skills. She fed our kids well, read to them, took them on adventures, and wasn't daunted by bedtimes or their high needs. We always knew they were safe and being more than cared for- she went out of her way for us time and time again. She became part of our family system, and now that she's a mom herself, I'm sure she brings even more skill to her vocation. It doesn't seem like a job for her, more of a calling. We were lucky to have her care for our babies and kids for as long as she did. Highest of recommendation.

Sarah taught me the basics of how to parent - before I was one. She was always flexible with her time, generous and kind to our whole family system, and I knew my kiddo was having fun and nurtured. So much so, that when I was birthing baby #2, she took care of toddler #1- for a few days! I don't remember if I called her to check in, or let her know it would be another 24 hours of labour, I just remember knowing my son was safe. She is a trusted member of our extended family. 

 

Julie

We have been working with Sarah since our baby was 10 weeks old. From the moment we met her, we immediately noticed her calming presence that put both us and our baby at ease, and we never worry when we leave our son with her for any amount of time.

Not only is she wonderful with our son, Sarah’s knowledge of breastfeeding and nutrition is truly expansive. In a time of need, she took the time to understand my unique situation and provided practical, nonjudgmental guidance which helped our family immensely.

A mother of two herself, Sarah is very well versed in all things family and baby. When she is in to our home, she never hesitates to help in any way she can - whether it's changing a poopy diaper, walking our dog, putting our baby to sleep or tidying the kitchen. We are always thrilled to have her with us. 

We cannot recommend her enough. She is truly one of a kind.

Sarah Has Been A Blessing !!!

 My partner and I had our first son just this September, and it was a rocky road since coming home from the hospital. At about 6 weeks things were becoming increasingly difficult and we were hitting a wall both emotionally and physically. We were in desperate need of help when we found Sarah. The day she showed up we felt as if we both didn't even have the strength to make it another day. She came in and took control and care of the baby like a super hero calming everyone down, and our anxiety turned to relief for the first time in weeks. We've continued to work with Sarah and wish we had her assistance sooner, it's been a hugeee help and we don't know what we would've done without her. We've learned so much and she's provided us a space for emotional support whilst allowing us a physical break for rest. Her calming energy really helped us as much as our child and gave us the hope and support that we could make it through this challenging phase. I would recommend Sarah's services to anyone in need of a doula and already boast to all our friends and family about how great she is. Thanks for all the help Sarah we couldn't of done it without you!!
