About Me
Hello, my name is Sherri. Welcome to my website! I run a family farm with my husband and have three grown children. Babies and family have been my passion for as long as I can remember. My greatest joy in life was to become a mother.
​
My goal is to support and empower women throughout pregnancy, labor, and delivery. My priority is to listen to the needs of each woman in my care and be her advocate in every aspect. I feel communication is key to a successful partnership, and as I work with each client my objective is to provide a caring, calm, and peaceful space for mothers to experience birth.
​
I am DONA certified and offer services in Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties. Please feel free to contact me at the email located at the bottom of the page.
