About
Hello, I'm María, a dedicated psychologist, certified Aware Parenting Coach, and a proud parent in a vibrant, multicultural blended family. My life's journey has taken me across the globe, from Spain, where I was born, to the diverse cultures of New York, Nairobi, Brussels, Berlin, and now Amsterdam. My passion? To support, nourish, and cherish you as you navigate the challenging yet rewarding journey of parenting.
Empowering Change Through AwarenessWith over 15 years of advocating for women's rights and children's health, my mission extends beyond the conventional. I left a high-profile consultancy with Bill Gates to establish Mamamaria, driven by a vision to awaken the profound importance of preparing for parenthood and healing our own childhood wounds. My approach is deeply influenced by my own experiences within a loving yet dysfunctional family, blending Aware Parenting, addiction recovery, spirituality, neurobiology, and practical parenting into a holistic, transformative experience.
A Guide Who's Walked the PathThrough healing my own family system and embracing my passion for well-being, I understand the bumpy road of becoming a parent and parenting and the threads it entails. My goal is to help you create strong, aware bonds with your children, fostering a lot of unconditional love for yourself and your little ones. Because I believe that the quality of a child's early experiences profoundly impacts their (our!) entire life, I'm here to guide you toward parenting that is mindful, loving, and rooted in awareness.
Join Me on This Transformative JourneyWhether you're contemplating the path to parenthood, seeking to deepen your existing family connections, or looking to heal and grow, I offer a sanctuary for exploration, learning, and community. From the SMART parenting course to personalized 1-on-1 coaching, I'm here to support your journey toward becoming the parent you aspire to be—empowered, joyful, and aware.Because here at Mamamaria, I believe that with the right support and knowledge, parenting can be a journey of profound love, growth, and transformation. Let's embark on this journey together.
