Hello… my name is Natalie. I am a Birth & Postnatal Doula, Birth Preparation and Hypnobirth Instructor and Mindful Breastfeeding Supporter.
About me ...
Hi, I’m Natalie, The Dragonfly Doula. A doula, hypnobirthing instructor, and mindful breastfeeding practitioner dedicated to supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
After 16 years as a Secondary Spanish Teacher, I completely changed career direction in 2000 to follow my passion for birth work and supporting families at such a transformative time. Since then, I’ve helped parents feel calm, confident, and fully supported as they prepare to welcome their babies.
As a mum of three, I didn’t discover the world of doulas or hypnobirthing until after my own births — and I often wish I could go back and experience it all again with the knowledge I have now. My first birth was far from what I’d imagined: I felt unprepared, unsupported, and overwhelmed. That experience sparked my mission to ensure other parents never have to feel the same way.
When I prepared for my later births using hypnobirthing techniques and the power of breath and relaxation, everything changed. Those experiences were calm, connected, and truly empowering — and that’s exactly what I want for you.
Today, through birth and postnatal doula support, hypnobirthing courses, and mindful breastfeeding guidance, I help families feel informed, supported, and confident every step of the way. I’ll be there to hold space for you, advocate for your choices, and help you rest, recover, and enjoy those early weeks of parenthood.
My goal is simple: to make your journey to parenthood as positive, supported, and magical as it deserves to be.
