Sarah Carter, CPM

After many years as a chidlcbirth educator (Birthing From Within) and a doula extraordinaire, Sarah finally took the plunge and became a midwife.  She is very easy to talk to and really knows how to support a woman in labor.

In addition to our supervising midwives, several other community midwives call our students to assist them with their deliveries. While these midwives and births are not actually a part of our program, they help broaden the experiences you can obtain while you are here, as well as the styles of midwifery you are exposed to.
