Your doula in Glasgow
I qualified as a birth doula in 2009, I was trained back then by renown author and doctor Michel Odent and famous doula Liliana Lammers, and since then I have supported 20 births.
I have also been an antenatal teacher for 20 years offering classes for the NCT. I have also trained many midwives and gynaecologists from various countries around the world as I am also a specialist in obstetric violence.
I have had the honour to work with Sheila Kitzinger and trained with her and her daughter Celia on reflective listening applied to traumatic birth experiences.
Currently, I also offer workshops and one-to-one antenatal sessions as part of my doula packages or as a stand alone course.
I am internationally known as an activist and author working for the sexual and reproductive rights of women and I have published three books about birth in Spanish.
Why hire me?
I never really intended to be a doula but every now and again a woman will appear in my life or my classes asking me to be their doula. If you hire me you get a sort of all in one package, as I posses a huge amount of knowledge both experiential from my three births, being a parent of three children (now two adults!) and by attending many births and supporting hundreds of parents, and also as a well trained and super experienced NCT teacher.
I am Spanish but I have lived in London over 30 years I moved recently to Glasgow and I currently live in Bearsden.
​
I am a very popular doula, so I can only offer my services as a birth doula to those women whose dates fit with my calendar, you can book me as early as you want to guarantee I will be available.
I am also in touch with other doulas so by all means drop me an email.
​
I offer two antenatal visits which can be a one to one antenatal class if you want, I am then on call from 36 weeks onwards, I then spend all labour with you and visit you and your baby/babies once postnatally.
I am available by email after that for as long as you need me.
