Meet Sarah Thiel

She/Her

Birth + Postpartum Doula

Postpartum doula and placenta encapsulation specialist, Sarah Thiel, began her journey in birth work in 2008 following the birth of her own children, one of which was a hospital birth and the other a home birth. 

Equipped with her experiences, Sarah began attending births as a home birth midwife's assistant. During this time, she witnessed the incredible strength and power of birth and supportive care, which sparked her work as an advocate for reproductive rights and birth choices and her passion for her role as a birth and postpartum doula.

Sarah believes that with compassionate Doula support and informed care, birthing people and their families can create the birth and postpartum experience they have longed for!
