I’m Alexa, an Argentina born birth doula based in Wimbledon, South West London. Since beginning my doula work in 2013, I’ve supported more than 145 births and feel humbled by the strength, wisdom and individuality of every woman and family I meet. I’m also a pregnancy and postnatal yoga teacher and trainer, massage therapist, and hypnobirthing educator.
I believe birth is a powerful, transformative experience, and every woman deserves to feel listened to, respected and supported in her choices. My role isn’t to tell you how to give birth, but to offer compassionate, non judgemental support, help you feel informed and confident, and protect the space you need to welcome your baby in your own way.
My training reflects a holistic approach to birth. I trained as a doula with Paramana Doula UK, learning from Dr Michel Odent and Liliana Lammers, and later completed holistic doula training with Whapio Diane Bartlett. I have also studied midwife assistance, pregnancy and postnatal yoga, hypnobirthing, pregnancy massage, birth biomechanics, rebozo techniques and traditional postpartum practices. I continue learning from birthworkers and women’s wisdom traditions across the world.
I feel drawn to ancestral midwifery skills and traditional knowledge around pregnancy, birth and postpartum care. Learning from traditional midwives and birthkeepers, including during visits to Ecuador, has deepened my respect for the cultural practices, rituals and community care that have supported birthing women for generations. I approach this learning with curiosity, humility and respect for its roots.
Whether you’re planning a home birth or hospital birth, I draw on breathing, movement, massage, relaxation and information to support you and your birth partner. I speak English and Spanish and support families across London. Above all, I want you to feel less alone, more connected to yourself and your baby, and confident in your own path into motherhood, whatever that looks like for you and your family.
