What Clients Are Saying…
Omg, where do I even begin?Sasha and her team were awesome. From the first time I called her until now and my son is two years old, Sasha has been such a blessing. My first pregnancy was during Covid so I was fairly nervous about hospital births but during this time she made me feel so comfortable and made sure I had everything we needed to stay healthy. I had a few family traditions I wanted to do and Sasha encouraged and respected my wishes. She was very informational & compassionate. Her services were affordable and she gave a list of affordable health care providers as well. I never would have thought my first pregnancy would be that great but it was everything and more. She was reassuring during my birth, gentle, & so considerate. I would recommend any pregnant person to contact Sasha. Such a down-to-earth spirit. Thanks again.

Compassionate and knowledgeable midwifery care for your home birth. I am so happy to have been connected with her for the home birth of my second child. Midwife Sasha always informed me of my options, her recommendations and supported whatever decisions I chose for my care plan (because we do have choices as birthing folks in which she affirmed that as a fact of the matter). I felt supported throughout my prenatal care and that made me even more secure in our decision to birth at home. She and my doula worked extremely well together and her birth team was also kind and fit right in. My family loves her as she did a beautiful job involving my 4 y/o and spouse in the birth experience. We had a successful home delivery of our newest addition. Would/will do it all again with Midwife Sasha.
