"Encouraging the strength in every woman to birth their baby"
MY
PHILOSOPHY
Over the years, supporting home deliveries, hospital deliveries, birth center deliveries, medicated and unmedicated vaginal deliveries, and C-sections, my philosophy has evolved but the groundings remain the same. There are solid evidence-based practices and values that support the way a mother should and can labor. Here are just a few...
-
A mother has the right to choose her birth desires in a birth plan and alter them at anytime
-
Proper nutrition, sleep, and support are crucial to all phases of pregnancy and delivery
-
Eating during early labor is for fuel and strength
-
Laboring in the comfort of your home as long as possible helps with relaxation, dilation, and overall morale
-
Delivering vaginally and unmedicated is just as much mental as it is physical
-
The ability to remain mobile and to labor how you feel is significant
-
Push in the position best for you and for optimal openness
-
10 centimeters does not mean time to push. Allowing the body to naturally tell you when it feels the urge to push
-
Having medical interventions and/or a C-section does not make you a failure or any less of a parent
-
Postpartum support and care is extremely underrated and needs as much planning if not more as your birth
-
Breastfeeding needs patience, support, and a comfortable space to express your feelings
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
- Isaiah 41:10

Jill H., Client
Sharea was such a blessing for me! Her availability was so convenient and she was willing to meet with us at short notice, only a week and a half before I delivered.
Jarvis M., Husband
She was a lifesaver I don’t know what I would’ve done without her. Listen if there’s any guys reading this it’s definitely worth the investment. Seriously, you’ll need the help.
Svetlana, Client
I can’t say enough good things about Sharea and our experience! I had an unmedicated home birth with my husband, a midwife and her team, and Sharea as our Doula, and it was wonderful! Hiring a Doula was the best decision we made!.
