Doula Care for Body, Mind, and Spirit
Hi! I'm Sarah, a birth and postpartum doula based in Manhattan.
I believe birth deserves presence. Not protocols, not rushed appointments, not someone watching the clock. Just a calm, knowledgeable person walking beside you through one of the most transformative experiences of your life.
I offer prenatal support, continuous labor support, and postpartum care, all rooted in the belief that you know your body and your baby better than anyone. My job is to help you trust that.
Let's talk!
Client testimonials
Sarah was a fantastic addition to our support team leading up to the birth of our daughter (my first birth!) Her presence is so calming and reassuring. With all the personalities in the delivery room, she had great discretion when to step in, and when to let the doctor or nurse lead. I wanted as natural of a birth as possible, but was open to what had to be done in the safest way possible. Because the birth moved so fast, Sarah helped guide me and my husband through contractions and counter pressure that was so helpful, I didn’t end up needing pain medication. And most importantly, Sarah helped in the recovery and mental processing of the birth. It wasn’t perfect, but it was beautiful, and having her emotional support was ideal for me to celebrate the hard work I did and process through such an important experience.

Sarah was a blessing to my husband and I as we maneuvered new territory- becoming parents! Just talking to Sarah about all of our thoughts and feelings helped us so much and she helped us feel like we weren’t alone. One of my favorite moments was when the doctor, the nurse, Sarah as well as my husband and myself would talk through the different options at the hospital and it was just comforting to have Sarah with us because we trusted her judgement. My husband and I were calmer because she was with us, and she understood if my husband and I needed a moment together. She is loving and just has a calm presence that allows you to be more at ease. Sarah also will go the extra mile for you. Her role is to care for the whole family, not just the baby. Sarah is not only a fantastic doula but also just a lovely human! We are so thankful for her!

I’m Sarah, and I love birth! From the moment I was invited to witness the birth of my first nephew, I knew this was something I wanted to be a part of again and again. I get so excited thinking about being in the room for this equally visceral and magical process, and making it a space you feel safe and empowered in.
Some other things about me: I studied musical theatre in college, and living just a short subway ride from Broadway shows brings me a lot of joy. I love to cook, bake, and decorate cakes, and I can’t walk by a thrift store without going in and doing some damage.
Family is so important to me. I grew up with five siblings, and my community here in the city is one of the most important things in my life. Watching families grow and develop in my doula work warms the deepest part of my heart.
