Trusted by Ottawa Families
Sherry founded Ottawa Birth in 2014 with a simple belief: families deserve compassionate, evidence-informed care without judgment or pressure. Today, she leads a trusted team offering continuous support through pregnancy, birth, and the early months of parenthood.
We have served over 400 families in the Ottawa area since 2014. We’d love to serve and support yours.
Sherry and her team were wonderful. During the most important stage in our lives, my wife and I felt we had a team we could count on. Initially we needed more support (overnights and longer periods) and as time passed, we needed less, but they were always there.
We developed a stronger relationship with one person - Alex - and relied on her primarily, but we were confident that when she was unavailable, we’d be taken care of and we were.
We had a great experience.

Postpartum Support, Carp.
My husband and I hired [Ottawa Birth] to be our doula for the delivery of our baby boy. At first, we weren’t sure whether hiring a doula was the way to go, and I am so glad that we did.
There was a piece of mind knowing that I had someone experienced who would be there for us during the entire process. She made us feel comfortable to ask all kinds of questions and was free of biases, but also shared an opinion if we asked. Our pre-birth visits were super helpful and she put us at ease on what to expect when entering the hospital. This was key in order to minimize surprises on the big day.
I highly recommend [Ottawa Birth] as a trusted partner/friend in your delivery. She went above and beyond and was one of the most compassionate and empathic person I have ever met.

TENS Machine
TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation.
It is a small, handheld machine that attaches to 4 small pads that stick to your lower back. The small pads then transmit small and safe electrical currents through your skin. It feels like a tingle or buzz while it’s happening but some people do describe it as a bit of a pinch.
