Sacred & Surrendered Births
Providing Compassionate Support for the Sacred Work of Birth
Let's DOULA This!
We are so happy you've taken the time to visit! I'm Sylvia Scarlett the Birth Doula and founder of Sacred & Surrendered Births, a Doula Collective.
Serving pregnant and birthing women well with dignity and grace is our passion!
Whether you're birthing at home or hospital, our team offers personalized prenatal, birthing, postpartum and breastfeeding support.
What sets us apart from your medical providers?
Our ultimate goal is to come alongside you in labor to stand in the gap where standard, medicalized care meets empowered + informed birthing. Our doula collective specializes in guiding moms and dads through labor utilizing body balancing techniques as well as advocating for you and your birth rights.

We also seek to educate both mom and dad on the physiological aspects of birth. It's more than dilation and pushing!
If you’re looking to build a birth team whose sole goal is to elevate you and your autonomy, we would love the opportunity to chat. Let us serve you and your family in this most exciting and intimate time. Let's Doula This!

The D O U L A Difference
Informational Support and Communication in Pregnancy
Informed Women; Empowered Birthing.
From our initial meeting, throughout your pregnancy and birth, a personal approach is taken when you hire us as your birth support team. We take the time to get to know you, your concerns and your needs and are always available to contact by phone/text as pregnancy comes with many highs and lows. #sisterhood
You will receive birth information tailored to your unique pregnancy journey that will help set the foundation to your desired plans for labor and birth, and we will work to provide you necessary resources and support to make sure your experience is as calm and positive as possible.

Go Into Your Labor & Birth With Tools to Utilize for Your Best Birth Experience
After beginning our relationship with you, we are committed to ensuring you have the tools and resources necessary for the birth YOU desire!
Customized birth plans, questionnaires, and perinatal resource guides are delivered to you to aid in the foundation on which you and your family will prepare for a positive birth experience.
Birthing Guidance
Here for Both of You!
We offer unwavering labor and birth support and advocacy to you and your spouse during early labor, in-person support during active labor, and postpartum support after baby has made his/her arrival.
Whether it is emotional encouragement or hands on guidance during the physiological aspects of birth, we are prepared and willing to serve you throughout the entire duration of your labor. Where a nurse or care provider may be sharing their time between patients, I am 100% yours!
Lactation counseling is an added bonus of having us as your birth doula! Moments after baby is finally placed on your chest, we are there to gently guide you through baby's first latch and feed. In this crucial "Golden Hour," I address any immediate concerns or questions you may have and offer various positions and techniques to encourage ease with breastfeeding.
"To be realistic is to expect your birth to be wonderful!"
