Welcome

Welcome to One Gentle Beginning, where women are encouraged and supported in their God-given ability to birth.  My name is Sarah, and I provide midwifery care and doula services to women within 30 minutes of Charlottesville, Virginia.  In addition to these services, I provide  comprehensive childbirth education, nutrition counseling, and breastfeeding support.

"Birth is not only about making babies. It's about making mothers- strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and believe in their inner strength." -Barbara Katz Rothman
