Welcome – You’re in Safe, Caring Hands
Expecting a baby away from home can feel exciting, yet overwhelming. As an experienced private multilingual midwife, childbirth educator and breastfeeding counsellor, I support expat families in London and online with personalised antenatal classes, breastfeeding support, and culturally sensitive care in English, Italian, and Portuguese.
I'm Ellie, your International Midwife, and whether you are preparing for birth, navigating the UK maternity system as an expat, or any maternity system away from your home, or seeking expert breastfeeding help, I’m here to make sure you feel confident, informed, and supported every step of the way.
I believe that every woman deserves to receive continuity of care during her motherhood. Being an expat myself, I understand the extra struggles of navigating such a precious experience in a foreign country. As your Midwife, my mission is for you to embrace your transformation to become a mother with confidence and knowledge.
Meet Ellie, your caring Midwife
I am a registered Midwife (RM) with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) with over 15 years of international experience providing personalised care to mums and their families. Before becoming a Midwife (BSC with Honours), I had the privilege of supporting many families in Italy, Dubai and London as their Doula.
I'm a very empathic person and I love to be surrounded by different nationalities, cultures and beliefs. I offer my services in English, Italian, and Portuguese.
As an expat entrepreneur who lived in different countries with a travelling husband, three kids, and pets, I became specialised in supporting expats and multicultural families around the world.
My call is to change the birthing scene, improving how women and babies experience BIRTH.
I believe every pregnancy and birth is a unique experience, and I am here to provide you with caring,
evidence-based support for you to achieve a positive birthing and parenting experience.
For me, the most rewarding part of my job is building strong, beautiful relationships with my clients, and each of them has a special place in my heart!
