Welcome to Innatal.
I’m so glad you’re here.
If you’ve landed on this page, chances are your mind is swirling with questions — about birth, your body, your choices, and the unknowns ahead. That’s okay. You’re not alone.
Innatal began as a quiet calling in 2020 — a seed planted in my heart, born from a deep love for motherhood and a longing to support women through one of life’s most powerful transitions.
I’m Ritika — once a marketing head in Dubai, now a full-spectrum birth worker, educator, and mother. Innatal weaves together the wisdom of both my worlds: rooted in Indian tradition, shaped by the global experiences of the UAE. What started as curiosity became a calling, and then a wholehearted commitment — to create a space that balances evidence-based care with deep, intuitive knowing.
Since then, I’ve trained as a Doula, Hypnobirthing Coach, Childbirth Educator (ICEA), Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Instructor, Rebozo and Waterbirth specialist, and more. But beyond the titles, my work is simple: I walk with women — through birth, through uncertainty, through the sacred.
At Innatal, we do things differently. There’s no one-size-fits-all. We honor your voice, your values, and your unique path. Whether you’re trying to conceive, pregnant, or postpartum — this is a space where you’ll feel informed, held, and empowered.
Because I believe birth isn’t just a moment — it’s a becoming. Of you. Of your baby. Of a bond unlike any other. And while discomfort may be part of the process, fear and confusion don’t have to be.
So let’s walk this journey together — one breath, one choice, one step at a time. There’s a calm, confident mother already within you. Let’s help her rise.
Meet Ritika Rajan
Childbirth Educator | Doula | Hypnobirthing Coach | Yoga & Nutrition Guide
Ritika Rajan is a certified Childbirth Educator through the International Childbirth Education Association (ICEA) and the heart behind Innatal. She’s deeply passionate about helping birthing couples feel informed, confident, and truly empowered as they prepare to welcome their baby — while gently unlearning generations of fear and outdated myths around birth.
Her approach is warm, practical, and rooted in evidence-based care. Ritika is also a certified Birth Doula with Rooted – Dubai, where she trained to support families physically, emotionally, and mentally throughout the pregnancy and birthing journey.
She’s a KGH Certified Hypnobirthing Coach, helping parents harness the power of the mind to create calm, connected birthing experiences. With an 85-hour Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training (Sally Parkes Yoga) under her belt, Ritika also supports mothers in preparing their bodies for labor through movement, breathwork, and posture.
Her certification in OMP (Optimal Maternal Positioning) adds to her knowledge of birth anatomy and techniques that encourage optimal baby positioning and ease in labor. She’s also a VBAC and Caesarean Birth Coach, holding space for second-time moms to prepare confidently — whether planning a vaginal birth after C-section or choosing (or needing) a cesarean.
Beyond birth prep, Ritika completed a PG Diploma in Montessori Teacher Training, which she uses to guide families through the early stages of parenting. She’s also certified in Child & Maternal Nutrition, providing tailored support for a healthy pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and beyond.
To round it all out, she’s trained in Rebozo techniques for pain relief and is a Waterbirth Coach (certified by Barbara Harper of Waterbirth International) — offering comfort-focused support options for those who seek gentler birthing experiences.
At her core, Ritika believes that birth is not something to be feared — but something to be reclaimed, respected, and remembered.
