Biography of
Sarah L. Educate,
Certified HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator
My name is Sarah L. (Stapley) Educate. I am currently a mommy of 3, a wife, a part-time Real Estate agent, and a Certified HypnoBirthing® Instructor. I absolutely love wearing each and everyone of my hats and wouldn't trade them for the world. As a Natural Childbirth Educator in Las Vegas, I have the opportunity of sharing a season of my life that holds a special place in my heart now and forever. In the beginning, I was born full of herbs and natural ways on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. To this day, I believe that my time in my mother and first years of life have shaped my beliefs about natural living and the desire to birth naturally. I have spent the last 12 years of my life living in Las Vegas with my family. I married my High School Sweetheart, Carmen, 6 years ago.
I birthed our first baby using an epidural and other interventions. I suffered from back pain the first few weeks after giving birth to Giana, now 6 years old. After experiencing problems from the delivery for a year after her birth, I new that nature had a greater intention for our bodies during the birthing process. I felt as though I could find a way to work with nature instead of against my body by intervening. With the birth of Mario, now 4 years old, I discovered birthing using Hypnosis. I was independently trained by Celine M. Santeler, Licensed, Board Certified Master Clinical Hypnotherapist, to use self-hypnosis for birthing. I was able to birth Mario with no intervention, in complete harmony with nature, with little to no discomfort, and without needing to use pain-killers. For our next birth I was on the hunt for a class that my husband and I could spend time together learning about birth and hypnosis. I wanted him to feel more involved in the process. I wanted him to truly understand what I was choosing to accomplish with our birth. I visualized a warm serene environment, to receive our baby as a spiritual gift, to have my husband as a guiding force in the process, and to be connected as one. With HypnoBirthing® The Mongan Method, we were able to have the knowledge of what my body was doing and so much more. Carmen and I were working together to birth our baby. We practiced our hypnosis at night in our room before bed. He was taught how to be the most effective birthing companion and the techniques to help release endorphins (the bodies natural anesthesia) by using touch during surges (contractions). Carmen found his role in the birthing process as a father, husband, and birthing companion. My goal of an intimate birth was accomplished. I felt alive and empowered just minutes after our babies were born using Hypnosis. I fell into a dreamy state for a month after the birth of Nicholas. I took the time to fall in love with our cozy family of five. There was clearly no room for postpartum blues. I was awakened to a new sense of satisfaction with myself as a women. I found apart of myself to love and admire that always existed before the babies arrived. It was very enlightening to unlock this window or awareness within me. The same strength that has been used by women for centuries before our time. My desire is for all moms-to-be and families to experience birth as it should be. The way nature intended for us to birth these beautiful beings into the world. I immediately knew after giving birth that I wanted to inspire others to take their birthing experiences into their own hands. I have spent the past 6 years researching through my own journey and training with The Hypnobirthing Institute. I have invested countless hours researching other cultures and alternative approaches to birthing. I am truly honored to have the opportunity of sharing my findings with others.
