Experience: 10 yrs
With a background in culinary arts, nursing, and now as a doula, I support families through the perinatal period - pregnancy, birth, and postpartum - with a focus on newborn care, maternal recovery, and postnatal nutrition. I also support early childhood development; helping families navigate milestones such as feeding routines, introducing solids, sleep support, first steps, early learning, and basic sign language. I offer light housekeeping, meal preparation, and am comfortable in homes with pets. I am CPR certified, COVID-19 vaccinated, and am dedicated to providing nurturing, holistic support to every family I serve.
Can't recommend Sarah highly enough! She worked with our family from when our son was 3 months old until he was 12 months old and started daycare. The things that stand out the most about Sarah are: 1) Her patience. Our son was a total COVID baby and really struggled in the beginning having anyone other than mom or dad take care of him. Sarah had the absolute patience of a saint through the early days when our son would scream for hours on end, always maintaining a calm, gentle presence. Eventually, she won him over and they developed a truly incredible bond. 2) Her ability to really get down on a child's level to connect with them. Any time I came in the room, I would find Sarah on the ground with our kiddo playing some new imaginative game while he dissolved in fits of hysterical laughter. She truly would do anything to make him smile. I really can't say enough good things about Sarah. She's become a part of our family and we're so lucky to have had her.
