Natalie Grubbs, BSN, RN, Midwifery Student at Loyola University New Orleans.

Wife and mom of three kids.

In my first career, I was a welder’s helper in the oil/gas industry for seven years. When my youngest child went to kindergarten in 2019, I decided to fulfill my lifelong dream to become a labor and delivery nurse. Once I obtained that degree, I quickly realized I wanted MORE. I didn’t just want to labor patients, but to also be the person attending their births, so I enrolled in Loyola University New Orleans to become a certified nurse-midwife. Fast forward three years later, and now I’m getting ready to graduate in May 2026! I am so passionate about labor and birth!

Helping bring babies into this world is seriously the coolest job ever! It’s not just a job, but a calling that I absolutely love to fulfill each and every day.
