Manhattan based, birth & postpartum doula, midwifery student, co-founder of Doulas In The Heights NYC, and your steady presence through one of life’s most powerful moments.

I support NYC families who want to feel informed, grounded, and confident as they prepare for birth—especially those seeking an unmedicated or home birth experience.

With a background in counseling, trained in Bradley Method, Hypnobirthing, Body Ready Method and certified through Carriage House Birth in Manhattan, I have a passion for physiological birth, I guide you through education, hands-on support, and intuitive care that helps you reclaim birth as something that belongs to you.

Support That’s As Intuitive As Birth Itself

Prenatal Education and Birth Prep

Knowledge is calming. Preparation is empowering.
We’ll meet throughout your pregnancy to build trust, explore the physiology of birth, and equip you with practical tools for labor. You’ll learn how to work with your body, navigate choices with clarity, and prepare emotionally for what’s ahead.

Labor Support
(Home, Birth Center, Hospital)

A steady presence—so you can surrender to the process.
From the first contraction to your baby’s first breath, I’m there. Through massage, movement, breath, and focused emotional reassurance, I help you stay anchored and in control—even in the most intense moments.

Partner
Guidance

Because your support team should feel supported too.
Whether it’s your partner, a friend, or family, I guide your loved ones with calm, clear instruction so they feel confident and connected throughout labor. We create a circle of care around you, so everyone feels steady and purposeful.

Postpartum Debrief & Support

Honor your experience. Begin your new chapter.
In the days after birth, we meet again to reflect. Whether your experience went as planned or took a different path, we’ll process the story together. This is a time to celebrate your strength, ask questions, and receive compassionate support as you begin life with your baby.

Birth Isn’t A Problem To Solve

It’s your body’s wisdom at work.

I believe birth is innate—an act of strength, intuition, and design. My role is to help you reconnect to what your body already knows, so you can move through labor with calm, clarity, and power.

Why Home Birth?

More time. Less pressure. A space that’s truly yours.


If you're drawn to the idea of a home birth—even with questions or hesitations—you're not alone.

Many families seek more than a hospital experience; they want autonomy, calm, and fewer interventions. With the support of licensed midwives, planned home births for low-risk pregnancies have been shown to be both safe and empowering.

We’ll walk through every unknown together. You’ll feel informed, supported, and confident in making the choice that’s right for you and your baby. And if you're wondering, “What if something goes wrong?”, we’ll create thoughtful plans that prioritize your safety and peace of mind.

  • What people are saying...

  • Sierra was an absolute gift to our birth journey—an anchor of strength, wisdom, and unwavering support. From the moment we began working together, her deep knowledge and professionalism instilled confidence in me, but it was her calm, compassionate presence that truly made all the difference when labor began.

    For nearly 30 hours, through every contraction, every wave of intensity, Sierra was there. She met me exactly where I was—offering words of encouragement, intuitive hands-on support, and the quiet, steady reassurance that I could do this. She wasn’t just a doula; she was my rock.

    Birth is one of the most vulnerable, transformative experiences a person can go through, and Sierra has an incredible gift for holding space in a way that makes you feel safe, empowered, and deeply seen. She helped create the environment I had always envisioned for welcoming my baby into the world, and I will forever be grateful for her role in that sacred moment.

    Whatever your birth plan, whatever your hopes—Sierra will go above and beyond to honor them. I cannot recommend her highly enough, and I truly hope I have the privilege of working with her again in the future!

    -Caroline, Home birth

  • “As a new mother, I found that sharing my thoughts, feelings and struggles with Sierra made a world of difference. She was patient with me and is the type of mother I would like to become! She's honest, practical, patient and helped me problem solve different situations. I felt comfortable sharing my thoughts and feelings with her, not because she is a doula, but because of the type of person she is.”

    -Caroline, Washington Heights

  • “Sierra has been absolutely wonderful during this first time journey of motherhood. She has been nothing but caring, patient, kind and attentive from the first time we spoke. In the delivery room, she was incredibly attentive and supportive and that helped me tremendously. She made sure that I was able to stick to the birth plan that I wanted as much as possible and she was a huge advocate for my son and I. She has been incredibly knowledgeable about babies and lactation support.”

    -Courtney, Westchester

  • “The last couple weeks of my second pregnancy were unexpectedly difficult; I talked with Sierra several times and she was able to help guide me through my own turbulent emotions and answers to questions I had never thought to ask myself as I grappled with possible interventions. Her support was invaluable. Sierra listened well, was understanding, and didn't waste any time at getting to the root of my worries. I was so grateful that I reached out for prenatal support because it brought me the peace my body and mind needed to relax and let go of all the stress!”

    -Courtney, Miami

  • I don’t even have enough words to express the immense gratitude I feel for Sierra, my incredible doula. From the moment I met her, I knew I was in good hands, but what she did for me throughout the entire process of bringing my first child into the world went far beyond anything I could have imagined.

    Sierra was a constant source of calm, support, and strength, always knowing exactly what to say or do when I needed it most. Her presence was a grounding force during the most intense moments, offering encouragement when I doubted myself and always reminding me of my own strength. She was there to guide me through every stage, from pregnancy to labor to those first precious moments with my baby. Her deep knowledge and unwavering support helped me feel empowered, confident, and ready for whatever came next.

    -Lees, Washington Heights

  • “Sierra was such a blessing during my pregnancy! She was so supportive throughout the pregnancy, walking me through all my options, supportive and informative of all my natural birth desires, plus there for me emotionally when needed. During the birth she helped me stay (more) calm through the contractions. Then when things didn’t go as planned and I didn’t make it to the hospital she stayed calm, supportive, and helpful communicating with my midwife and 911 and guiding my partner through every moment.
    I truly had the most beautiful, amazing birth experience and Sierra played a huge role in making that happen!”
