Hello, I'm Natalie
I’m a mum of three, a FEDANT Registered Doula and Breastfeeding Counsellor, and trained in birth biomechanics. My support is calm, grounding and always led by you.
Based in Leamington Spa, I support women and families through pregnancy, birth and the early months of motherhood. I share information, not instructions, so you can make the decisions that are right for your family.
My story
Before birth work, I spent years in recruitment for large international organisations, and lived in Dubai for five years, which is where I first became a mother.
After a long road to pregnancy, my twins arrived early by caesarean and spent their first weeks in neonatal intensive care. I was determined to breastfeed, so I began by expressing, and in time we found our way to feeding them both together. Four years later, my daughter’s arrival was a calmer, very different experience, though feeding still had its challenges, including a tongue tie.
Looking back, what I needed most was someone to listen. Someone to share what I needed to know about rest and nourishment, to recognise and celebrate what I was going through, and to remind me that I could ask questions, take my time and say no.
Women need more support, and to be truly seen, especially in postpartum, when the mother can suddenly feel invisible. That's why I became a doula.
How I support you
Imagine knowing who’s coming through the door. Someone who already knows your story, your hopes and the questions you’ve been carrying. Before your baby arrives, we sit together, often with your partner too, and talk through what matters to you, so you go into birth and those early weeks feeling informed and ready, with your choices firmly your own.
Once your baby is here, the visits feel like a deep breath. You eat something nourishing, maybe still warm, while I listen. You rest, knowing everything is held. We talk about how feeding is going, how your body is healing, and how you are, not just the baby. If you need someone local, I’ll know who to call. Gentle breathwork and bodywork help you settle back into yourself, and older siblings have a story to read about the new arrival.
Most of all, you’re seen. What you’re moving through is huge, and it deserves to be recognised and celebrated, not rushed past.
By the time we finish, you’ll feel confident and supported, with the quiet knowledge that someone was in your corner while you found your way into motherhood.
Outside of work
When I’m not with families, you’ll find me running the gardening club at my daughter’s school, out walking, catching up with friends, or lost in a good romantasy novel.

R.E. postpartum client
She always was ready to listen to me and provide me both emotional support and some useful relevant information. My postnatal journey would definitely be much harder without her support.
