Are you feeling anxious, perhaps a little unheard, as you approach one of the most incredible moments of your life?


Do you wish you had someone truly in your corner, listening to your deepest hopes and fears for your birth, without judgment or rush?


Are you feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice and the pressure to have a 'perfect' birth, rather than a positive one that's right for you?


Are you tired of feeling like just another number in a system that often prioritises protocol over your personal birth experience?


Does the thought of your upcoming birth fill you with more anxiety and uncertainty than the calm confidence you'd hoped for?


If you have answered yes to any of these questions, carry on reading. You have come to the right place.


I understand those feelings because I've been there, and I've walked alongside countless parents who felt the same way.
What if you could approach your birth not with dread, but with a profound sense of calm, confidence, and the unwavering belief that you are truly cared for? That's not just a dream; it's absolutely possible for you.


Hi, I'm Susana, and my mission is to help you transform your birth experience. My passion comes from my over 20 years as a midwife, witnessing firsthand how the system was failing families. I saw how cuts in appointments, time, and a lack of continuity were destroying our main midwife ethos – which is being with women and supporting and caring for families at a very vulnerable and important journey in their lives.
I help parents move from confusion to calm clarity. Through gentle guidance and practical tools, they learn to trust their instincts, communicate their wishes with confidence, and feel empowered no matter how their birth unfolds.
I believe every parent deserves to feel empowered and respected, and to hold their birth with confidence.
I believe that the quality of support a family receives at birth shapes everything that comes after it. Rushed, impersonal care leaves lasting wounds, but time, presence, and genuine compassion create a foundation that families carry forward for a lifetime. This work is not just about birth, it is about the kind of people and parents we become because of it.
I created A POSITIVE B.I.R.T.H – your roadmap to moving from anxious and unheard to calm, confident, and truly cared for at every stage of your birth experience. This isn't about following a rigid plan, but about building an inner foundation that empowers you through every moment. Because every family deserves to feel safe, supported, and in control of their own story.
Here’s how we do it:
B - Build Your Birth Vision: We start by deeply exploring your values, fears, and desires for your birth, creating a grounded vision that guides you, no matter what path your journey takes.
I - Invite Deep Trust: We gently unpack societal fears, building a quiet, inner steadiness. You'll learn to trust your intuition, your body, and your birth team, feeling like an active participant rather than a passive recipient.
R - Release Fear and Reset Expectations: We acknowledge and gently release those quiet fears you might be carrying, replacing them with clarity and honest, real expectations. You'll walk in with an open mind, ready for whatever comes.
T - Tune Into Your Body and Birth Team: We strengthen your connection to both your inner wisdom and your external support. You'll learn to listen to your body and communicate effectively with your birth team, ensuring you feel truly seen, heard, and cared for.
H - Hold Your Birth With Confidence: This is where it all comes together. You'll enter your birth experience knowing yourself deeply, feeling supported, and meeting every moment from a place of calm, rather than panic. This confidence shapes not just your birth, but your entire journey into parenthood.

When I'm not diving deep into the world of positive birth experiences, you'll likely find me enjoying a Diet Coke (it's my little vice!), probably laughing a bit too loudly (a trait I proudly embrace as a good Spaniard!), and definitely appreciating a good siesta whenever life allows. But beneath all that, my absolute passion, the thing that truly lights me up, is making sure every family steps into pregnancy, birth, and beyond feeling genuinely supported, truly listened to, and totally empowered.
Susana is a midwife and hypnobirthing instructor who supports parents from bump to baby with calm, compassionate guidance. After more than 20 years working within the NHS, she now practises as an independent midwife, offering families the time, care, and continuity they deserve.
Drawing on her extensive experience and additional training into the biomechanics of labour, the use of the rebozo, dancing and moving for birth, and the Three Step Rewind process, Susana blends professional expertise with a deeply human approach.
Becoming a "pseudo-grandmother” to the families she supports, she brings warmth, wisdom, and a steady presence to every birth journey. Her work is rooted in the belief that birth is both physical and emotional, and that every family deserves to feel safe, informed, and supported as they welcome their baby into the world.
