Hello! I am Belén, midwife, pediatric nurse and sleep consultant

My name is Belén Chocano,I am fully dedicated to help women like you to reach a good experience during the maternity period. On this page you will find everything you need to know me a bit better...
Let's start!
I qualified 10 years ago as a midwife in England (London) after having worked 6 years as a paediatric nurse in Spain (Madrid). I also quailified as a Sleep Consultant in England (London) 3 years ago
During the first years working as a midwife I understood that what I really enjoyed about my job, was helping the expecting mother to learn and get ready for the changes that the birth of a child brings as well as looking after her the following months of motherhood.
I then decided to create Bel&Mums, to be able to offer continuous care from pregnancy till the first months after labour . I realised that this preparation helped the couple to adapt easier to the new situation putting off fears and insecurities to promote the wellbeing of all the members of the family.

Hello! I am Bibiana, customer service

I have several years of experience working in the customer service industry. My main goal with Bel and Mums is to make sure you have access to exact information and advice from our great team of experts, so you can make the best decisions for you and your family.
How can I help you?
Pregnancy
Starting from the 9 months of pregnancy in which lots of doubts rise up, everything is new and you need more than ever that professional support that clears up questions.Childbirth
In small groups or privately where you receive a specific guide taking into account your individual situation, your strengths and weaknesses, your particular fears and hopes.Postnatal
If during pregnancy you had doubts, during this period the doubt has you. It is very common to question the wellbeing of your baby every minute or the postpartum infirmities and is very important to have the support needed at any time.
How did I decide to create Bel&Mums

While working as a midwife, after seeing the big difference between labours from those women that received a great prenatal courses against the ones that received a regular one.
I clearly saw that the ones that were well trained, enjoyed their delivery because there were in control at all times and were able to put in practice the techniques learned that favor labour progression. These women use to have wonderful experiences and kept a memory both nice and empowering from their births.
I then started to get interested from the different labour preparation courses, I attended many different models as a midwife assistant. I quickly realized that the key was the use of the most efficient techniques plus a good experienced instructor that is able to explain it on an easy and clear way.
In 2015 I created Bel&Mums in London. I started with Prenatal Courses, many women asked me to extend my services and classes to get more complete education and care including postnatal cares at their homes. That way I started to do follow ups during pregnancy, postnatal visits, breastfeeding support, etc.
Now my new project has been bringing to Spain all I learned in the UK and help many other women to go through this period with a smile, feeling accompanied and empowered.
