Shariah Sanders

Shariah Sanders is a Full Spectrum Doula and holistic care provider based in Chicago, Illinois, supporting families through every stage of the reproductive journey — from conception and birth to postpartum and beyond. With over 15 years of experience in community wellness and maternal health, Shariah brings a deeply rooted commitment to culturally congruent, trauma-informed, and family-centered care.

Trained as a Birth and Postpartum Doula, Herbalist, and Prenatal Yoga Instructor, Shariah blends evidence-based knowledge with holistic practices to help families feel informed, grounded, and supported through the transition into parenthood. Her background in community engagement and education shines through her approach — empowering families with accessible information, practical tools, and emotional care that honors their unique experiences and traditions.

Families often describe Shariah as warm, intuitive, and grounding. She emphasizes emotional support alongside practical help, creating calm and trust-filled environments where families can fully focus on their birthing experience and early parenthood journey. A lifelong learner and advocate for birth justice, Shariah’s professional goal is to become a midwife and continue advancing compassionate, community-centered maternal care. Outside of doula work, she enjoys herbal crafting, teaching wellness workshops, and spending restorative time in nature — practices that help her bring centered and nurturing energy into every space she serves.

Supporting families during this transition is one of the greatest honors of my life. I believe every parent deserves care that feels affirming, informed, and gentle — care that holds space for your values, your voice, and your vision for birth. My goal is to help you feel confident, nurtured, and deeply seen as you welcome new life and step into this next chapter of your journey.
