Sarah Alexander, R.N.
My passion for the birthing process began in 1993 when I volunteered at a midwifery clinic in The Phillipines. Since than I have worked to incorporate this passion into a meaningful career by training to become a Registered Nurse specializing in Labor and Delivery, a Breastfeeding Counsellor, a Doula (providing women with emotional and physical support while in labor), a certified prenatal yoga instructor, a Second Attendant and a Mother of two.
Prior to having our first child, I felt prepared for labor but I didn’t realize how many questions I would face once she arrived. Belly to Baby not only prepares you and your birth partner for labor and delivery, but also guides you through the questions and answers that arise after your baby’s arrival.
My hope is that you will cherish your birth experience as a precious and empowering time in your life. I want women to be satisfied with their birth experience and be informed in their expectations. It is important that your birth partners feel involved in the process and appreciate the value of their role in this unique experience.
I am currently employed at Women’s Hospital as a Certified Perinatal nurse specializing in labour and delivery. I reside with my husband and two daughters on Heritage Mountain in beautiful Port Moody, BC.
