Nathan | Folk Midwifery

I am an independent midwife with 13 years experience, I am based in Hastings and cover East Sussex, Brighton and South London Areas.
I offer the full spectrum of midwifery care from early pregnancy up until 8 weeks postnatal and I can provide complementary therapies, ceremony, massage and nanny support. I am here to fit with your family and provide gentle, supportive, attentive care and help you achieve the pregnancy, birth and early parenting journey that YOU want.

I offer care all in the comfort of your home with 24/7 whatsapp/phone support throughout.
I am on call for labour and birth care from 36-42+ weeks of pregnancy.
I am an expert in the natural approach, declining or delaying intervention/induction, home birth and infant feeding.
No time limits, no interventions that you don’t want, no judgement.
Just open, supportive communication, the most up to date research, and the steady presence of someone that you have built a deep trusting relationship with who believes in your power and wisdom.

I am a queer, trans, spiritual, attachment parent of two who I carried and birthed at home myself (against advise!) and I know first hand how families who look ‘different’ are treated and responded to by mainstream care. I took Abuela Doula training and several other Anti-Racism and Cultural Safety training sessions to help me learn more tools to advocate for the Black and Brown families that I have the privilege to serve.

Your identity, culteral safety and consent are at the heart of everything I do and I am able to accompany you to other appointments if you choose, I will ensure your boundaries are respected and your voice is heard wherever we are.

I offer flexible payment plans and various care packages to suit each family’s needs. If you are unsure, give me a call and we can talk it through.
