Hi, I’m Natalie, welcome to my little corner of the birth world!

A little about me and how I can support you through your pregnancy journey & the early days of parenthood…

I am a Mum to my beautiful daughters Florence & Connie. They are my reason, my being, my everything. All that I strive for, both in my home life & working life, I do to make the world a little brighter for them.

I have dedicated my career to supporting women throughout their pregnancy, birth and the early days of mastering life with a newborn.

In the beginning, I worked within the Health Visiting Service. I was offered a place on a small training course in ‘Breastfeeding Support’ which opened my eyes to the world of infant feeding, I was hooked.

After struggling to feed my own baby, I returned from maternity leave into a dedicated Infant Feeding role supporting women who also found feeding a challenge.

I continued this role for a number of years before heading into Midwifery. After hearing hundreds of birth stories as a support worker, I wanted to be an advocate & empower women to have positive birth and feeding experiences.

I am a registered Midwife & still practice within the NHS. As a midwife I chose to be a part of the Home-birth Team, supporting women who chose to birth outside of the hospital unit or planned to ‘birth outside of guidance’.

Alongside my Midwifery degree I have undertaken additional training to become:

• A Hypnobirthing teacher (The Perinatal Academy)

• A Baby Massage Teacher (Baby & Me)

• A Mindful Breastfeeding Practitioner ( Anna Le Grange)

• A Fatherhood Institute Champion (Fatherhood Institute)

• Qualified Tongue Tie Practitioner (University of Wolverhampton)

I am currently studying towards becoming a Lactation Consultant.
