What is a Full-Spectrum Doula?
Full-Spectrum refers to the full-spectrum of human experience. I specialize in meeting you where you are at in your journey. As a Full-Spectrum doula, I can provide support during reproductive changes, birth, postpartum, loss, and abortion. My job at any stage is to provide you with the expert support you need, and the resources you maybe didn't know you needed to get through whatever stage of transition you are facing.

​​While the details can look different for everyone, our goal is simple. We want to maximize your time and energy while minimizing your stress-level, anxiety, exhaustion, and to-do lists. Every potential client receives a free ​one hour consultation where we get to know one another, and discuss your needs and expectations.

Meet the doula

Hello! My name is Sara, and I'm so glad you're here. 
 I feel very fortunate to have found birth work relatively early in life, after I attended my first birth as a volunteer 6 years ago I never looked back.
I had found my passion for birth-work while looking for a sustainable occupation that would allow me to use my empathy skills to support my community. As it turns out, Doulas do just that! I'm a certified postpartum doula through Childbirth International, and a certified Full-Spectrum Doula through Doula Training International. I support my families by offering physical and emotional support as well as resources, evidence-based information, and access to my ever growing library. My services as a Doula and my work as a painter have found a happy harmony in painting commissioned portraits of pregnancy, postpartum, and birth scenes. You can keep up with my artwork by following me on instagram @homegrowndoula 

I've always had a strong belief in the importance of empathy and compassion. The journey to becoming a doula has been the most beautiful way of deepening that practice. It's my goal to bring support to communities and families who truly need it, not just to those who can afford it.
​
​If you or someone you know is concerned about the level of support that they can afford through their pregnancy or postpartum, please contact me and I will do my very best to help.
