Luka Bradshaw – Luka the Doula

Hertfordshire, England

Hello, I’m Luka. I trained in KG Hypnobirthing with Katharine Graves, founder of KG Hypnobirthing. I believe everyone has the right to a positive birth experience that is centred around them and their choices. I am also a birth and postnatal Doula that works to support families in their birth, 4th trimester and onwards. These trainings combined have greatly widened my knowledge of pregnancy and birth and deepened my passion for working with parents to empower them on their journey to meet their baby. If you are keen to have a calm, confident pregnancy and labour, I would love to be a part of your exciting journey.

Birth has a profound and lasting effect on the birthing person’s life, their babies life and their partners life. That is why it is something that needs to be carefully considered and prepared for. I believe that meaningful guidance supported with the antenatal knowledge, that a KG Hypnobithing course provides, is paramount to the mental and physical health of families. This is something I believe every birthing person should experience.

Speaking from a personal perspective, I was terrified of birth; often I would have panic attacks about the thought of it. KG Hynobirthing gave my partner and I the tools to work with my body, navigate the NHS and the ability to make informed decisions around our care. I went on to have a calm and gentle birth with our son in 3 hours. I want to share this knowledge with other parents to enrich their experience of this precious time. We live in a culture that often over medicalises birth and one that undermines the natural process of labour. I work with parents to help them build trust in their body and their babies ability to birth, and provide them with the information to be in control of their journey.

I believe when parents feel empowered by their birth experience and are not recovering from physical or emotional trauma, they go on to feel confident in their abilities to parent and bond with their baby.

Due to Covid19 I am currently offering 1:1 zoom sessions and small group courses. I hope to resume face to face teaching in the near future. If you would like to enquire about availability and prices please get in touch, my email address is

Once in person courses resume, I am happy to facilitate private lessons in homes in North London, North East London and Hertfordshire
