I have learnt so much during my life,, my own births and my birth career.
Long, long, ago, when I birthed my first child, I had no birthing wisdom of any kind, I was panicking and fighting my own body during that birth and it meant that birth felt torturous and scary. It also meant I had no knowledge or control over my baby and even experienced a very unnecessary Mother-Baby separation.
The Birth Course I attended gave me nothing to ground me and nothing to have faith in. I didn't even know what was happening to my own body.
A year after my birth, I was awakened to the world of excellent and amazing birth education, such an Hypnobirthing (plus more)
I became a passionate educator and learnt sooo much from every single human I worked with and every single birth I studied. Including many years mentoring under some of the greatest midwives in the world.
Fast forward fifteen years, I’ve educated over 1,000 families as a Private Birth Educator, and have guided and emotionally supported another 2,000 families as a Doula, Counsellor and Birth-Community-Project Coordinator.
I have also birthed another baby in an amazing healing birth experience that truly taught me the full, full, spectrum of how birth and parenting can be.

Nat Meade Birth Doula was exactly what I needed for safety, experience and empowerment.
April, 2026
Natalie was the steady presence and advocate I needed during such a vunerable time. She is exactly the kind of person you want in your corner. May, 2026
Natalie's support, experience and knowledge is amazing. I felt so understood, seen, loved, and heard.
You gave me: trust in my body, you gave my hubby: confidence and in-depth understanding of birth.
Your dedication, knowledge, tact, care and diligence were exceptional.
Your teachings protected my headspace and transformed me as a birthing woman.
I'm so grateful to have Nat as my Doula, she is such a wise woman and a calming and grounding presence in those exact moments when you need her.
As a pregnant woman, I wanted childbirth to feel special and celebrated during my care.
Born from this dream, the Newcastle Birth Movement is my gift to the local community, located in Warners Bay, Newcastle, NSW.
At the space, myself and our volunteer team, run a counselling room, a preloved maternity clothing room and many wonderful workshops.
We also offer complimentary birth circles, trauma counselling debriefs and doula chats + more.Drop in for a cup of tea anytime in our public drop in hours!
