What Birthworx doula clients are saying…
HD, Lower Hutt
Sarah was amazing during labour and birth. She empowered me and advocated for me. She was tactful and resourceful. She reminded me what my goals were when I was struggling and she didn’t let me give up. I genuinely don’t think I would have achieved a VBAC without her. I will forever be grateful she was on our birthing team.

We have been recommending Sarah to all our friends! Having a doula was a highlight of our journey to bring our baby into this world – we felt well supported even when the system let us down. It’s one way to really take care of yourself and your relationship through what can be quite a stressful time.

If you’re looking for a brilliant doula, look no further. Sarah was birth and postpartum doula, and I am so glad we hired her. She is incredibly knowledgeable on all topics birth and baby, and also has her own lived experience to draw on. She really took the time to get to know me, my wants and needs, and I always felt so understood and safe. Sarah’s the perfect mix of upbeat positivity, whilst also radiating a gentle calmness. She is really passionate about her work, and always went the extra mile for us. During labour, Sarah was wonderful in so many ways, including advocating for me to get the pain relief that I needed. And de-briefing a few days later, when things hadn’t gone as I had hoped. I had post-birth complications, and Sarah’s support was invaluable. She provided much needed emotional support, was flexible with our sessions, and visited me in hospital with delicious homemade bread and affirmation cards. Sarah was also a huge support to my husband during what was a both a beautiful, and difficult time. We used some of our postpartum sessions to learn baby massage, and also to receive a massage from Sarah - delightful! Sarah is an incredible doula, and just an all round wonderful person. Thank you Sarah, we will forever be grateful for you and your amazing mahi.

Where to begin?! Sarah empowered me to have my best birth. Hands down. She’s the best friend that’s been through every birth scenario, who doesn’t judge, and who walked with my husband and I step by step through birth prep, birth and postpartum. As a FTM, she not only empowered me, but also my husband in what to expect. She’s tactful and resourceful and fitted right into our family. She also recommended a chiropractor and pregnancy massage and both became huge parts of my birth prep team. Would 100% recommend Sarah’s Doula services.

We received amazing support from Sarah postpartum after our second child was born. Sarah was very flexible about assisting us with anything we needed, and she took care of our older child to give me some much needed breaks. We strongly recommend Sarah if you think you might benefit from some additional support postpartum, particularly if you don’t have close family available. She is very kind and easy to relate to!

I liked the easy-to-follow instructions, the nice relaxed environment and practical exercises. I learned that my twins both love massage, especially their feet, and the colic routine is really effective.

Awesome course! Well facilitated & great connections with other mums. Lovely and safe space where we can share freely and learn from each other. Highly recommend Birthworx!
EC, Lower Hutt
Sarah is amazing! Highly recommend her baby massage class. She’s so warm, knowledgeable, and supportive. I was initially nervous about bringing my newborn into a space like an organised class, but Sarah could not have made it a better experience, she facilitates space so beautifully, made everyone comfortable, and learning so fun! The class made us feel more confident as parents and even more connected with our pēpi.
AW, Kapiti
We did Sarah’s baby massage course as an antenatal group at Sarah’s home, and absolutely loved it. She creates a nurturing, supportive environment, which was so lovely as a new mum. Sarah really knows her stuff and made everyone feel comfortable - we had some great chats and no topic was off limits.
MH, Lower Hutt
Sarah is just such an incredible person. Her calm and caring approach created a safe space for what can be an extremely vulnerable time. The baby massage prompts card now lives on our fridge and all three of our kids are really enjoying the connection when to do baby massage with them! Highly recommend- incredible value and you finish the course with another person in your support circle!
DJ, Kapiti
I loved everything about the course, it was an amazing way to meet new parents, learn a skill that helped me and my baby get a deeper bond and Sarah is an incredible facilitator and just all round lovely person.
RT, Kapiti
Sarah’s baby massage class is a must do for you and your pēpi! Sarah is a great teacher and creates such a lovely and welcoming environment for you to learn soothing baby massage techniques whilst connecting with other parents. I always looked forward to the sessions each week and Sarah tops it off with delicious home baking and a hot drink! Perfect activity for those sleep deprived days. Highly recommend.
