ABOUT
HI! I'm Sarah Fairlight-Chase CPM, LDEM an Ogden lover, an active member of my community, a gardener and mixer of herbal goodness, food preserving enthusiast, a mother to 4 boys born at home, a wife of 20+ years and a passionate believer in the natural process of birth. I am one lucky lady who is supported by her family, friends, and community and I am beyond excited to share all this with the birthing people of the Ogden area.
​
Witnessing the homebirth of my sister at the tender age of 10, holding my mother's hand and absorbing the experience the best I could is my earliest memory of birth and what set my foundation of what birth could be. Through that moment I was lead on a path to Midwifery and the supporting of women through their childbearing years. Since then I have been to hundreds of births.
​
This awe that I feel towards out of hospital birthing was also nurtured by my mother who was involved in our home-birthing community. As a child she would bring me with her to childbirth education classes and to women's & mother's circles held on a local community. There I learned to value the positive impact of having a village of supportive humans to gather around you. These lessons imprinted early have molded me and the care I want to give to others during their childbearing years.
​
I spent 5 years apprenticing and studying towards my CPM (Certified Professional Midwife) credentialing and then continued on to receive my Utah State license. I carry current NPR (Neonatal Resuscitation) and CPR. I actively attend workshops and take continuing education credits to make sure I am up to date on research in the field. I work with a team of qualified assistants at every birth to make sure all my clients receive the highest quality of care.
​
As a Midwife my dream is to create a space. A space for a broader understanding of our bodies, a space to explore ourselves and all that we are. A place that uterus owners at all stages feel like they belong. A moment to be held on the journey of childbirth. A space to come back to when your heart is heavy. By intention, I want to help create a space for parents as they walk this path for the 1st time or the 12th.
​
I want to birth this dream into a full fledged reality. By creating somewhere that you can come and enjoy a cup of tea and forge a long term relationship with the members of your community.
