Portrait of Miriam Apellaniz, midwife and mindfulness instructor

My name is Miriam Apellaniz

Midwife by profession and vocation. I am also a nurse and mindfulness instructor.

I am here to guide, share tools, dispel fears and accompany couples who decide to take an active part in this journey — to train, to have options, and to make this experience a positive one.

Our Services

My antenatal classes and birth preparation courses are designed to equip expectant parents with the knowledge, skills and confidence they need for a positive birth experience.

Individualised Virtual Accompaniment

Experience personalised, virtual care throughout your pregnancy. Your dedicated midwife is always here to answer questions, offer support, and help you navigate this special time with confidence and ease.

Antenatal Classes

These classes cover everything from pregnancy wellness, birth planning and labour techniques to the early days of parenting.

Birth Preparation and Mindfulness

Practical tools and exercises to help parents approach childbirth and parenthood without fear, including mindfulness and hypnobirthing techniques designed to make labour a more positive and empowering experience.

Postnatal Support

Comprehensive postpartum care for mothers, including emotional support and practical guidance during the crucial early weeks — with a birth debrief to process and understand the birth experience, and baby care advice for the new family.

Feeding Support

Need a helping hand with feeding your baby? Whether you are breastfeeding or using formula, I am here to offer personalised support and guidance. Let us make feeding time a positive experience for both of you.

Why Choose Us?

Choosing the right support during pregnancy and parenthood is a deeply personal decision. I understand this because I have been on this journey myself, as a midwife and as a parent. My mission is to offer the care, guidance and reassurance that I believe every parent deserves — support that I wished I had during my own experiences.

01Personalised Care

I see every family as unique, and I tailor my support to fit your individual needs and preferences. Whether it is answering late-night questions, helping you navigate unexpected challenges, or celebrating your milestones, I am here for you every step of the way.

02Holistic Approach

My training as a midwife, lactation consultant and mindfulness instructor allows me to offer a well-rounded perspective. I focus on your physical health and emotional well-being, helping you and your family prepare for all aspects of this life-changing experience.

03Empowerment Through Education

Knowledge is empowering, and I am committed to providing you with the information you need to make informed decisions. My goal is to help you feel confident and prepared, whether you are planning your birth, learning to care for your newborn, or adjusting to life as a new parent.

04Accessibility and Support

With services like individualised virtual accompaniment, you have a dedicated professional just a phone call away, offering peace of mind and timely advice whenever you need it.

Join me, and let us make your pregnancy and birth experience not just a series of appointments but a supportive, enriching journey. Together, we can turn what may seem overwhelming into a positive, empowering experience that you will cherish forever.
