This is Who I Am (and why I care)
I’m Nadia… I am a 34 year old Virgo who is knee-deep in early motherhood. I have a 3 year old & a 6 month old… both wildly high-spirited & deeply sensitive young boys who are teaching me so much! My husband is a sound healer (think, gong baths & crystal bowls), but we do not fit the mould of your typical “holistic wellness” family. We love festivals & camping, going on adventures as a family, pub gardens in the summer & we love cooking & exploring new foods (well, Luke likes cooking & I like eating). Yoga is my favourite form of meditation & when the boys are pushing me to my emotional limits, this is what I always come back to.
My Why…
I do this work because I believe that mothers deserve more than rushed appointments, fear-based messaging & a one-size-fits-all approach to birth. I care because I’ve been there… questioning everything, spending hours researching, tuning into my body & discovering that so much of what we’re told about birth & motherhood just isn’t the full story.
I reject the narrative that because the NHS is “free”, we should be grateful for a sub-par service. You do not get a do-over in pregnancy & birth, so no matter what it takes, I will help you to take advantage of the best care available in your local trust. I am tired of hearing traumatic stories every time somebody has given birth, and I do not believe that it is birth itself that is the problem.
I want every person giving birth to know that they have options. That their instincts matter. That you can say no, ask more questions & choose differently. I’m here to walk with you as you unlearn the noise, remember your power & step into motherhood feeling informed, supported & untamed.
