SOUND FAMILIAR?
Growing a birth business is harder than anyone tells you
Bookings feel inconsistent — you're never sure when the next client is coming
Generic business advice doesn't fit the realities or the ethics of birth work
Marketing feels overwhelming or inauthentic to who you are
You love the work but worry it's not financially sustainable
You're giving everything to your clients but there's nothing left for you
You're unsure what to focus on next to actually move forward
You're in the right place.
WHAT CHANGES WHEN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT SUPPORT?
Income, freedom and happiness — without burning out
More Income
A steady, ethical income that supports your life, not just your passion for the work.
More Freedom
Boundaries that protect your diary, your energy, and your home life. Space to breathe.
More Happiness
Do work that lights you up and feels sustainable — without constant overgiving or burning yourself out.
YOUR COACH
Hi, I'm Niamh — and I come from the birth world too
I'm a business coach and mentor for birth and postpartum professionals — doulas, lactation consultants and antenatal educators — who want to grow a business that supports their real life.
I created Your Birth Biz because too much business advice simply doesn't fit this industry. You're dealing with emotional labour, on-call demands, deep client relationships, and a genuine desire to do ethical work — while also earning a living.
I understand all of that. And I believe you can build something that's financially sustainable, values-led, and genuinely fulfilling — without following rules designed for an entirely different kind of business.

CLIENT STORIES
I've helped so many incredible birth & postpartum professionals build businesses that support them as well as their clients...
"After six months of private coaching with Niamh my business and my confidence have completely shifted. I went from feeling busy but stuck to having proper clarity around how I want to structure my business, my pricing and my boundaries. Niamh understands birthwork AND business. Best money I ever spent."
ANA - BIRTH & POSTPARTUM DOULA
"Before the NEST program I felt fairly confident about operating my business but I was nervous about moving it to a new location. Now I realize there were many things about running & marketing my business that I didn’t know before. Now I feel much more confident and I have clear guidelines for maintaining and growing in the future."
REBECCA - IBCLC
"Feel the fear and lean into it! We were all where you are - nervous/ excited/ feeling like an imposter. With the support of the NEST programme and now the Your Birth Biz Membership, I am smashing my goals and trying out more in a supported environment! Come join us and let us support you too."
TINA-MARIE - BIRTH & POSTNATAL DOULA & ANTENATAL EDUCATOR
"During my Power Hour with Niamh I learned so many actionable steps that I could go away and implement in my business! Niamh's insight was so helpful and she helped me think of things and reflect on aspects of my business that I hadn't done before! I'm feeling a lot more clear about my next steps!"
DONNA - ANTENATAL EDUCATOR & HYPNOBIRTHING INSTRUCTOR
"Whenever you're trying to learn or improve anything, having a group of people working on the same thing as you is highly motivating. That's a huge part of the value of the Your Birth Biz Membership! And the bitesized trainings are sooo helpful and easy to implement!"
