I honor the belief that our bodies are sacred vessels, and birth is a transformative passage that heals the sacred feminine and strengthens connections with future generations.
My practice emphasizes the natural and physiological processes of labor, integrating trauma-informed care and somatic awareness to ensure holistic support.

I uphold principles of self-determination and community care, striving to provide culturally specific services that address maternal-child disparities resulting from systemic harm. By connecting families and birth workers to decolonized care practices, I aim to dismantle inequities and promote birth justice.
kind words from students & clients
“Sara has not only grace and intuition in birth but also displays a reverence for the sacredness of each mother's journey. She is a skilled midwife & childbirth educator and brings a level of experience with specifically diverse communitiesS that is desperately needed in the homebirth community."
—Racha Tahani Lawler, CPM, LM
“Sara’s birth and body work is done with such grace, knowledge, love and respect—for women, mothers, babies, families, and the process itself. She has a warmth, a connection, and an intuition—all of these touched me deeply, instilled healing, and made my birth experience all the more positive.”
— Lita M., Oakland, CA.
“Sara started as my doula, teaching me how to eat right, take care of my body, mind and spirit in my process of learning to be a mother. She supported me in so many ways; the biggest impact she had was during my labor. Somehow, even though I felt in my being I could not have a natural childbirth she guided me with patience and persistence to my goal, and eventually helped my daughter Asmara come into this world. I can honestly say I'm not sure I would have made it without her.”
