Giving birth should be a marvelous experience to be remembered with joy for the rest of your life. To get the best out of this wonderful experience you must be well-prepared.  Mare Meva has all the tools you need to approach the birth well-prepared and without fear. We offer birth preparation courses according to the Swedish concept “Annas Profylax” which teach you all about what to expect in labor, breathing and relaxation exercises, massage techniques and also how coaching and visualization can be used during labor and birth.  

Our birth preparation courses (psycho- prophylactic courses) can be held in English upon request.

Our Doula service: Mare Meva offers constant, uninterrupted support and company during pregnancy, birth and postpartum. The main tools of a Doula are her experience, her hands and her voice, and she provides emotional support, physical comfort and an objective viewpoint, as well as helping the woman get the information she needs to make informed decisions. 

Mare Meva offers evidence-based information on breast feeding, emotional and physical recovery from birth, infant soothing and coping skills for new parents and makes appropriate referrals when necessary. 
We are always happy to talk to you without any obligation, please contact us for an informal chat.

We have now, together with Barcelona Well Woman Clinic, launched a complete Pregnancy, Birth and Post-Natal course in Barcelona, and our aim is to help provide the couple with factual and practical support during the pregnancy and facilitate them in their role as future parents.

During the program we will work with body and mind to educate the couple re physical, hormonal, and emotional changes and challenges that may present themselves during pregnancy. 
This support will allow the couple to approach  birth with confidence, armed with knowledge and practical advice and enjoy each step of the way.

The program contains specialist input from professionals in Nutrition, Physiotherapy, Acupuncture, Breathing techniques, Psychology, Coaching, Visualization and Nidra relaxation.

The course will be held in Spanish but all our teachers speak English fluently.
