Hi there!
My name is Sabrina,
Owner of Little Sprout Doula, and with nearly a decade of experience supporting infants,
toddlers, and families, my journey began in early childhood care before evolving into
specialized birth and postpartum doula work.
​​
I’ve been honored to have started my birth Doula career volunteer with the Birth Doula
Program at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and be part of the Sutter Health Doula Pilot Program. Additionally, I have partnered with a postpartum retreat center in San Francisco, supporting families with breastfeeding education, newborn care, and practical guidance for partners. Collaborating with skilled professionals and nursing staff has sharpened my ability to provide personalized, compassionate care tailored to each family’s unique journey!​ To further deepen my expertise, I completed the Lactation Educator Counselor course at UC San Diego because I am committed to continuous learning and empowering every family I support!
​
I would love to connect and discuss how I can confidently support you through your pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience!
