Meet Sara | Certified Postpartum Doula & Multiples Specialist

Sara is a veteran doula who is loaded with experience and can’t wait to work with you. She moved from the Bay Area to Portland to be closer to family, and she and her family are now enjoying all the Pacific Northwest has to offer, and being close to mountains, rivers, and great schools for her kiddos.

Sara is one of our master doulas and has over 12 years experience working with birth and postpartum clients. She has many certifications, giving her a wide, diverse berth of education and experience. She is a wealth information and can answer every question about newborns and their needs. Some of her strengths include working with multiples, preemies, special needs and colic as well as postpartum mood disorders. 

For the past 8 years, Sara has worked postpartum with clients overnights, specializing in breastfeeding, multiples and preemies. You will find Sara to be warm and friendly with a wonderfully nurturing approach to her practice. She loves to teach her clients everything she knows to make them feel competent in their parenting skills and instincts.

Sara is friendly, with a wonderfully nurturing approach to her practice. She is a confident doula and brings peace and calm to each client’s home she serves. She has cared for twins and singletons, single parents, moms dealing with depression and anxiety, and has helped some of the fussiest of babies thrive while their parents gained confidence and recovered from birth (or from having twins!).

Sara is available for a couple nights a week, and can do longer shifts when needed as well. She loves how specializing in overnight support gives her the opportunity to connect with each family in a precious way, as she supports them through some of the toughest parts of parenting that happen in the middle of the night.

When Sara isn’t working, she is a dedicated mom and wife, helping her 4 kids with school, activities, and currently with post-pandemic life. One of Sara’s strengths is creating calm in her own household as well as multitasking, which is a skill she often brings to her work— and in turn teaching her clients to do the same.

She loves the outdoors, often hiking, camping or fishing with family and friends. She also loves to ride a motorcycle—this busy mom does it all!

Kimberly met Sara several years ago during a Working with Multiples training in San Francisco, and they have been in touch for years as Sara planned her move to Portland. We always knew that Oregon would be a perfect for Sara and that clients would love her. We couldn’t be more excited that she is finally here and available to serve ABC clients with her wealth of experience, high level of professionalism, and genuine heart for this work.
