My journey to becoming a mother was not easy. I had two very different and difficult births that taught me a lot about myself and the challenges of childbirth. My first birth was a long and exhausting labor that ended in an emergency cesarean. I felt scared, helpless, and disappointed that I couldn’t have the natural birth I wanted. My second birth was a planned cesarian, I felt unprepared, anxious, and overwhelmed by the intensity of the experience and felt guilty for not trying to deliver naturally. Both of my births left me feeling traumatized and in need of healing. These experiences made me realize that there is a gap in the traditional healthcare system when it comes to supporting mothers during birth. I felt that I didn’t get enough information, education, or emotional support from my providers, and that I had to advocate for myself and my baby. I decided to become a doula to fill that gap and to help other mothers have a better birth experience. As a doula, I offer personalized and continuous support to mothers before, during, and after birth. I help them prepare for their birth, cope with their pain, communicate with their providers, and celebrate their achievements. I want every mother to feel empowered, respected, and joyful during their birth.

Sarah Tunney is a licensed midwife, a former historian, a clinical researcher and a mother. She has been involved in maternal, infant and reproductive health advocacy for nearly 30 years. Sarah has attended 500+ births, first as a doula, then as a midwifery student, apprentice, and later as a community midwife servicing the Amish. Sarah moved to Strasburg, PA, in 2022 to learn advanced skills from a veteran midwife who specializes in breech and twin births. The Amish families of this community experience high rates of rare genetic anomalies, metabolic disorders and congenital heart defects. However, the community does not engage with pediatricians unless conditions are life-threatening. Instead they rely on their community midwives' skills to safely birth at home and to provide all newborn care and evaluations necessary. As a result, their midwives are extremely practiced in home birth and thorough newborn assessments, which identify patients requiring specialty care who would otherwise go untreated. Prior to her time with the Amish, Sarah was an apprentice to a traditional midwife (partera), in Tijuana, Mexico, assisting her as she established a free clinic and birth center for pregnant migrants and asylum seekers. Sarah later joined the board of Refugee Health Alliance, a nonprofit organization that provided financial and logistical support to the clinic and birth center, and was a Medical Parole (MPP) coordinator for families seeking asylum. Sarah has worked or done primary maternal and infant health research in Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Tunisia, Lebanon, Mexico and Guatemala, and has spent time in the UK and Iceland learning from other midwives about their practices. She is currently a member of the Quality Maternal & Newborn Collaborative Research Alliance, a group of providers from all sectors of maternal and newborn healthcare working to improve care, experiences and outcomes for families through better and more collaborative research efforts. Sarah received her Bachelor of Arts from Yale University in Arabic Language & Literature, and her MA/PhD (ABD) in Islamic Studies from New York University. She was an historian and taught Middle East and Islamic studies until 2010. Her primary fields of research interest were childhood, birth, maternal/infant health, gender and sexuality, and the body. During that time she remained active within the field of reproductive and maternal and infant health, and eventually chose to leave academia to pursue her calling as a midwife. She completed her midwifery education at National Midwifery Institute based in Vermont. Sarah is committed to ensuring equal access for all to safe, physiologic birth, quality maternal and newborn care and reproductive health resources, and to collaborative models of care within birth systems.

Hello everyone, my name is Bailey Lundberg and I am a certified Birth Doula and Placenta Encapsulator located in San Diego, California. Birth has been my joy and passion for several years now. Coming from a background in nannying my love for babies and birth propelled me to become a Birth Doula and Placenta Encapsulator. Also, coming from a more holistic background myself I find that having a doula present at birth that shares the same values reinforces the power and beauty of birth. In my free time I love baking cupcakes from scratch or walking my dog.

They say if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. I found my passion as a postpartum doula and have not worked a day since. In the current culture parents have so much pressure to be perfect and do it on their own. I have made it my mission to educate parents on the benefits of having support during the fourth trimester, and that it truly does take a village.

I have always been someone who loves to take care of others. For family and friends, I was the one they’d call in an emergency, when someone is passing, when life decisions were being made. I went to college to become a nurse because I wanted to ensure I had a career where I could support people. God works in mysterious ways and I wasn’t able to apply for the nursing program at the college I went to. I had decided to get a degree in Health Systems Management and later, to do the accelerated nursing program. Plans don’t typically work on the way you dream and I found myself two kids later, 1 year too late, unable to apply for the accelerated nursing program. During this season, I had Andrew, our child that wasn’t birthed with the support of a doula, and I knew, being a doula was my answer. I’ve had felt unseen, unheard and unimportant when I was giving birth and I wanted to make sure that didn’t happen to others. I’m often get introduced as “Doula Jenn” and, I love it. I don’t just doula people through childbirth, I support through life. Parenthood is hard, marriages are hard, finding connection with friends is hard and I want to come alongside you in life. I’m an active member of the High Vibe Mom Tribe and I host virtual book clubs several times a year to support women through their marriages.

I am a certified labor/birth and postpartum doula. I am also a Newborn Care Specialist and a certified newborn sleep specialist and sleep coach. In addition to giving birth to 10 children myself, I have helped hundreds of families in the nearly 30 years I've been doing this work. I feel it really DOES take a village to raise a child, and I am always honored to be invited to that village. Whether it's assisting in getting information so parents can make informed decisions in labor or birth, or teaching new parents how to bathe their babies, or establishing sleep routines to help all household members to "sleep like a baby", the role I am invited into is an important one that I do not take lightly.

I am a Korean-American mom of 3 bi-racial children who are all 1 year apart and entering their teen years. My own experiences have informed my practice of working with women who are pregnant for the first or 3rd time, new parents and seasoned parents who are managing the challenges of balancing the many aspects of raising kids whether in a partnership or as a single parent. Though I'm trained in various modalities to treat perinatal mood disorders and use a trauma informed, integrative approach, in my practice it's the human connection that is prioritized.
