Hey you, welcome!

My name is Sara Bakr, I am a Black, mixed, pro-abortion full spectrum birth worker/doula. I support people during life’s various transitions to help you feel empowered and heard during this time. I had a calling to do this work, so here I am!

I have a long history in care work, both professionally as a personal career and assistant, but also in my private life for family members. I am passionate about caring for others and I dream of a world in which care work will become valued in society as we all need it at some point in our lives. In my work as a Doula I support clients both emotionally and physically but the most important part is helping clients find their own voice so they are able to care for themselves in the long run. It is important to find that balance of knowing how to nurture and care for yourself but also knowing when you need to ask for help.

In 2019 I started hearing my calling to birth work, at first it was a silent whisper that slowly grew louder and louder. When I could no longer ignore it I decided to finally train to become a certified Birth & Postnatal Doula. I completed my Doula training in 2020 and have been working as a full spectrum Doula ever since. I see great value in the continuum of care that is why I offer services and support for pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period as well as loss; specifically miscarriage and stillbirth.

I am also an abortion doula. I wholeheartedly believe in choice and bodily autonomy. Pregnancy can be a beautiful blessing but it can also be a burden, I believe that we should all have the right to choose what we want to do with our bodies. I believe that abortion is an act of self love. I completed my Abortion Companion training with DOPO in 2022.

Most recently, in 2025 I started supporting families and individuals on their fertility journey as many of my clients are queer and/or single parents by choice and want some extra support navigating the journey towards pregnancy. In short, I radically support and gently nurture people through various transitions in life.

My personal mission is to improve sexual and reproductive health services as I believe in reproductive justice and bodily autonomy for all and a free Palestine InshAllah.

I look forward to meeting you, getting to know you and supporting you through life transition,

love Sara xxx
