Hi, I’m ILENIA.
I'm a Mum of a gourgeous little girl, a Birth and Postpartum Doula, and Hypnobirthing teacher.
Pregnancy changed me in ways that I would have never imagined before. It changed my priorities completely and pushed me to follow my instinct and my real self more than I ever did in my entire life.
After pregnancy I left my corporate job and I dedicated myself (while still caring for my daughter full time) to train in supporting women and pregnant people during this precious time of their lives.
I was born in a small village in Italy, grew up with a very big family and lots of Sunday lunches spent all toghether at grandma’s house.
I moved to London in 2016, and worked as a nanny first then started my job as a kitchen designer/installation manager. I now live in Maidenhead with my family.
I believe childbirth is a rite of passage, where a person gives birth not only to a baby but also to a new version of herself. This passage from Maiden to Mother is sacred and needs to be honored more than what our current society does.
Knowing that birth is unpredictable, my mission is to support women unconditionally through this time of their lives, giving them the chance to tend inwards and listen to their bodies, exploring their innate inner strenght and empower them .
