Hello, I’m Natalie, a registered nurse in labour and delivery. I believe childbirth is not just a medical event, it is also a powerful, transformative experience. My role is to give you the knowledge, tools, and confidence to trust your body and your instincts as you prepare to meet your baby.

I am a perinatal naturopathic doctor that helps families achieve optimal health before, during and after their pregnancy. I offer nutritional counseling, acupuncture for labour induction and moxa for breech turns. I am an experienced birth doula that focuses on helping the birthing parent trust their body and the birthing process. I help couples with encouragement, physical comfort measures, education and advocacy. I am a certified HypnoBirthing Childbirth Educator and Evidence Based Birth Instructor. I teach virtually at the moment and hope to soon be able to teach in person again. I rent La Bassine birthing tubs with disposable liners and a kit that includes everything you need for a waterbirth.

I’m a passionate and experienced parent who knows firsthand how magical - and sometimes overwhelming the newborn stage can be. I had a doula for my own births, and that experience opened my eyes to just how beautiful and capable the human body is. I’ve always been drawn to the process of birth and early parenting, and I’ve loved every stage of being a mom, from breastfeeding all of my babies to babywearing, co-sleeping, and fully embracing the joys and challenges of the newborn period. My philosophy as a postpartum doula is rooted in gentle, intuitive support that honors both baby and parent. I believe every family deserves care, guidance, and reassurance as they navigate the first weeks and months together. I’m here to help parents feel confident, nourished, and supported - whether it’s through hands-on newborn care, breastfeeding support, light household help, or simply being a calm and encouraging presence when you need it most. My goal is to empower families to enjoy this fleeting, transformative stage with less stress and more connection, knowing they are seen, supported, and capable every step of the way.

I have worked as a prenatal educator in the Kitchener-Waterloo area since 2014 and as a full-time birth and postpartum Doula since 2016. I previously worked as an administrator in a midwifery clinic for many years as well. I am able to share a wealth of information based on my personal and professional experience. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your pregnancy, birth, and parenting journey either in one of my classes, a coaching session or as a Doula at your birth or during your postpartum journey.

I am a mother of four, a registered social worker and a full-spectrum Doula with a special place in my heart for legacy work and preparing folks, and their loved ones, for the end of life transition. I am committed to choice, informed consent, education/information, equitable access to services and client-centred care. At the heart of my work is the belief that life and death are sacred and that love holds space through all of life’s transitions.
