Hi there, I'm Natalie

I stay in Glasgow and I am a proud mum to two gorgeous (and very energetic!) sons, wife to one very patient husband, and a registered midwife with a huge passion for supporting women through pregnancy and birth.

​

Birth has always felt a little bit magical to me. As a midwife, I’ve had the absolute privilege of walking alongside so many families at one of the most powerful and transformative times in their lives. But I also know that pregnancy and birth can feel overwhelming, noisy, and full of “what ifs." - I experienced a lot of these myself. I had a traumatic unplanned caesarean birth first time around, and a planned caesarean second time and the difference in how I felt about each birth was like night and day. 

My unplanned caesarean took a lot from me, but my planned one gave me peace, empowered me and honestly it was healing. Feeling like I was in control of my birth story, and that I could advocate for what I wanted was a game changer.

That’s exactly why I created The Natal Nook and why I wanted to teach hypnobirthing. 

I wanted to build a space that feels different. Calm. Cosy. Supportive. A place where you can exhale. But also a space where you can learn about birth, learn about your options, and be empowered to vocalise what you want and need from your pregnancy and birth experience.

​

Through my hypnobirthing courses, pregnancy relaxation sessions, Calm Caesarean workshops and birth planning support, I combine my professional knowledge with a down-to-earth, honest approach. No scare tactics. No judgement. Just evidence-based information, practical tools, and plenty of reassurance so you can feel confident making decisions that are right for you.

​

I truly believe every woman deserves to feel informed, calm, and empowered as she prepares to meet her baby and I’d be honoured to be part of your journey.
