Wholistic Prenatal, Birth and Postpartum Care
I love birth. I love babies. I love the earth and the wisdom in creation. I love empowering families to make their own well informed decisions . I enjoy helping women see the wisdom in their own body. Embracing the unique relationship of trust I build with my clients, my aim is to contribute to the community by providing true informed consent and empowerment to the family unit as a whole. Families value the lessons in their own experience when given the dignity to choose and decide rather than having their health options dictated.
Who Is Sherrie ?
I am a wife and mother of four incredible children.
My own birth experiences raised many questions in my mind. In pregnancy feeling vulnerable, fearful and not understanding my birthing options , I left my decisions about my ycare and my life in the hands of my care providers as if the accountability belonged to them.
Eventually I learned and did better. I needed to reach out to others like me.
I began my journey into the birth working world believing I could help change the alarming number of health disparities especially among women of
color. Like many of today’s midwives, I started out as a doula, growing into a midwife through many hours of schooling and years of hands on learning and training. I graduated from Nizhoni Institute of Midwifery.
I gained valuable experience learning in hospital, home birth and several busy birth center settings serving many happy families.
Some certifications include Lactation, CPR/Neonatal Resuscitation, Blood Borne Pathogen certification for Placenta Encapsulators, HIPPA Compliance,
ongoing..
Through various apprentiships and on the job training I had the honor of being mentored by some of the most amazing midwives in California.
Under Licenced Supervision I manage pregnancies from beginning to end, catching babies and attending to postpartum clients in and around Los Angeles, Long Beach, Burbank,.

“I had a very empowering birth with Sherrie. It was my first child and I didn’t know if I’d be able to do it without the help of an epidural. Sherrie and her team prepared me as best as they could for the experience, leaving me with a sense of calm and confidence I didn’t know I had. While I was pushing and saying out loud that I couldn’t do it, that I couldn’t get this baby to the other side, Sherrie gave me her hand and quietly and firmly reassured me I could. She shepherded me into these first incredible acts of motherhood and me and my family are forever grateful for it.” - Samara
