I’m Andrea, from Barcelona. I’ve been a physiotherapist since 2003. After finishing my degree, I specialized in Pediatrics and Neurology—two areas I was passionate about—but due to life circumstances, I spent several years working in oncology, trauma, and geriatrics.

After having my three children, motherhood (which shakes everything up) reminded me of my true passion. I began training in respectful parenting, breastfeeding, ergonomic babywearing, neurodevelopment, and managing congestion. I updated my skills (and I’m still at it—it’s addictive!) with various highly specific training programs in the field of pediatrics to be able to support other mothers, babies, and families during those very vulnerable moments of postpartum and early life.

I love working as part of a team so we can learn from other professionals and provide better support to the family.

My main goal is for every family to enjoy their breastfeeding journey and to support the dyad with the respect they deserve.
