- London-based Nadia has been a birth doula since 2009. In that time she has supported every type of birth from elective cesarean to Free birth; trained with many different people and gained certification in many different modalities from biomechanics to Mindfulness for Mothers and Hypnosis to Benkung Belly Wrapping.
A former journalist and magazine editor, she came to doula-ing after the birth of her first child; an unplanned, undiagnosed breech and emergency cesarean following 12 hours of labour. She went on to have 3 HBACS (the first 2 outside the system with independent midwives).
Nadia is also a senior yoga and meditation teacher of 20 years, a prenatal and postpartum and baby yoga specialist and embodied birth educator.
In 2021 Nadia launched her Yoga & Mindfulness for Pregnancy & Birth Teacher Training and Birth professional course - now in its sixth run. She also runs training for Birth professionals and yoga teachers in Postnatal Yoga and Mindfulness in London, and the Maternity Chakra Pathway for Birth Professionals. She is also a Holistic Pelvic Health Practitioner and offers courses in Holistic Pelvic Health for women.
More recently Nadia has embarked on a postgraduate counselling training in Psychosynthesis Counselling & Psychotherapy which is informing her perinatal work from a different angle and enriching her holistic view of childbirth and matrescence. Nadia lives in London with her partner and family.
