You can learn more about humanized birth from a gynaecologist, and also about traditional Mexican medicine. You could take part in our yoga classes and reading circles, and we have other training and classes at the centre that you could take part in.
//Puedes aprender sobre lo que es el Parto Humanizado en México, sobre la medicina en México, y ser parte de las clases de yoga en el centro y de los diferentes talleres que se ofrecen.
We, as a family, are running a birthing centre in the soul of Playa del Carmen. We need a confident midwife who speaks Spanish and has some knowledge about 'humanized and respectful birth', who can come to help for at least 3 months.
As well as helping women during and after delivery we also need someone who can teach about what humanized birth is, who can help with breastfeeding and postpartum care.
We would be super happy to host someone with a vision of the importance of multicultural exchange.
//Dirigimos esta casa de partos en el corazón de la Riviera Maya, en Playa del Carmen. Solicitamos una partera capacitada que hable español y este a favor del parto humanizado y respetado. Que tenga disponibilidad para quedarse mínimo 3 meses.
Que pueda enseñar sobre el concepto de parto humanizado, se encargue del postparto y ayude de manera regular en abrir y cerrar el centro. Algunos días pueden ser solo de atención de parto y postparto y otros de ayuda general en el centro y en redes sociales.
Nos encanta la idea del intercambio y que mis hijos puedan compartir la cultura a través, de la música, el arte, etc.

We are a 10 minute taxi ride to the main strip of playa (5th avenue “La Quinta”) and the beach. By Bus it will take about 30 mins. There are also bike stores or rentals if you are interested in biking around the main strip. We live close to a mall called “Plaza las Americas” which includes a movie theater, many shops and a supermarket.
