Natalie The Doula - Amsterdam Doula: Professional Birth Support & Empowered Journeys - Hypnobirthing

A safe place to land, a steady hand to hold, whatever your birth looks like.

Welcome, I'm Natalie, a birth doula, HypnoBirthing teacher and childbirth educator, supporting families across Brighton & Hove. I offer calm, evidence-based, non-judgemental support through pregnancy, birth and the early postpartum period, so you can feel informed, empowered and confident in the way you choose to birth.

What makes my support different

  • A holistic view of birth. Birth isn't only the arrival of a baby. It's the birth of a mother, a father and a family. My approach is built on trusting your body and your baby, and on protecting the calm, safe environment where that trust can flourish.

  • Training with leading voices in birth. My doula journey began in 2013, when I trained with Liliana Lammers and obstetrician Michel Odent. I've continued with Birth Bliss Academy (London) and BiA Doula Foundation and Advanced Training (Amsterdam).

  • Supporting throughout your journey. Alongside my doula work I'm certified in HypnoBirthing, Spinning Babies®, postpartum traditions and lactation support, so you get continuity from bump to breastfeeding.

  • A global perspective, a personal touch. After living in New York, Beijing, London and Amsterdam, and working with international families, I bring a broad cultural awareness to every family I support. I'm here for your individual path into motherhood, however that looks for you.

  • Support whichever way your birth unfolds. I help you avoid unnecessary disruption, and when medical interventions are needed, I help you feel relaxed, at ease and safe.
