Frequently Asked Questions

Can I put your services on my baby registry?

Absolutely! I am an Official Gift Provider at Be Her Village™, and also have gift certificates available (both virtual and physical). Email me at sarah@smallthingsbirthservices.com for help getting or giving the gift of support.

What is your service area for in-person support?

I am able to travel about 45 minutes from my home, which would include most of Hickory, Lenoir, Morganton, Newton-Conover, and Marion, NC. Please feel free to reach out as I may be able to travel to other locations, depending on the circumstances.

Will you consent to a background check?

I run a state background check yearly, and you are welcome to see the results. I am happy to discuss other checks, which would be run at your expense.

How long is an in-person shift?

For daytime support, I work a minimum of 3 hours at a time. For overnights, I work a minimum of 8 hours, typically 10pm-6am. Before we begin working together, we'll discuss what frequency and which days of the week work best for you, though this may change as baby does.

Are you vaccinated against COVID?

Yes, I have received both the initial vaccination as well as boosters. I am more than happy to wear a mask while in your home. Please feel free to contact me to discuss other preventative measures you have in mind. My goal is for you to have an experience that is as safe and worry-free as possible!
