Birth Doula & Postnatal Doula

Welcome! I’m Natalie, The Dragonfly Doula. I’m so glad you’ve checked out my profile and are actively exploring what support might look like for you on this incredible journey into parenthood. Whether you’re pregnant, preparing for birth, or navigating those early postpartum days, I’m here to walk alongside you—offering reassurance, practical support, and the kind of care that makes you feel truly held.

A Little About Me

I’m a mum of three, a Doula UK-recognised doula, and a firm believer that every parent deserves to feel confident, informed, and heard. Pregnancy and birth bring a whirlwind of emotions (and a ton of choices), and my job is to help you sift through it all—gently, with no pressure, just guidance that makes sense for you.

How I Can Support You

🌿 During Pregnancy & Birth

  • Helping you prepare for birth in a way that feels right for you; whether that’s deep-diving into birth options, creating a solid plan, or exploring hypnobirthing techniques for a calmer experience.
  • Being your sounding board, always judgment-free and full of encouragement.
  • Supporting home birth planning (if that’s your choice!), from setting up your birth space to making sure everything is in place for the big day.
  • Going on-call as your birth approaches, ready to be by your side whenever you need me.
  • Providing continuous 1:1 support during labour; helping you feel calm, safe, and in control. Whether I’m reassuring you, offering comfort measures, or helping your birth partner feel confident in their role, I’ll be right there by your side.
  • Advocating for your birth preferences, making sure you feel informed and supported in any decisions that come your way so you can decide what is right for you and your baby.

🌿 In the Postnatal Period

  • Holding space for you to process your birth experience; whether you need to chat, reflect, or just be heard.
  • Helping you settle into life with your newborn, offering gentle guidance on feeding, newborn care, and the emotional ups and downs of those early days.
  • Practical support that makes life feel just that little bit easier—think meals, laundry, tidying up, or even watching your little one while you grab a shower, a bite to eat or a nap.
  • Signposting to trusted specialists if you need extra support, from breastfeeding consultants to mental health professionals.

However you choose to welcome your baby, my role is to support you—in a way that feels right, empowering, and full of care.

If this sounds like the kind of support you’re looking for, let’s chat! I’d love to hear about your plans, your hopes, and how I can best support your unique journey.

With love,
Natalie x
