Practice overview
With a Masters in Public Health focusing on reproductive health, and experience in integrative nutrition health coaching, eco-therapuetics, and perinatal yoga, my work as a doula is born from a multidisciplinary background focused on promoting health and wellbeing. I have spent over 4 years teaching individuals to connect to their bodies and minds and have studied the systemic influences which shape health outcomes and inequities, but more importantly I am a warm and grounding individual who is passionate about supporting peoples' pregnancy and birth experiences. I am here to provide evidence-based tools, resources, and compassionate support as you weave through your pregnancy and parenting journey.

Among them, Natalie Pulvino stands out. During her time at my Los Angeles perinatal wellness center, Natalie demonstrated a refreshing combination of academic knowledge and practical wisdom.
Her kindness, compassion, and extensive expertise were consistently evident, earning her the highest praise from both our employees and clients. I have referred many clients to her for prenatal yoga, and each one has thanked me profusely for the recommendation.
Natalie’s ability to connect with and support expectant mothers is truly remarkable. Anyone who has the opportunity to work with her is very fortunate. She is an invaluable asset to the birth community.

She effortlessly curated each session to my personal goals, as well as modified every movement for my body and capabilities. What I loved most about working with Natalie was her calming energy, she can beautifully hold space for her client making them feel safe and seen. She is a gifted practitioner. I believe anyone who works with Natalie is in good hands. She values her clients needs over all else and understands the responsibility that come with that.

Postpartum, grief, general well-being, and now another pregnancy. She became an integral part of my life and greatly improved how my body feels day-to-day (no aches and pains!), my nervous system and my sleep. Natalie has the most calming way about her and I always look forward to our sessions. She really understands the body and offers me wonderful suggestions on how to improve my practice. I never enjoyed yoga before I met Natalie. She is one in a billion and I adore her! She is so talented.
