A fab resource…not just for mums in the Marbella region, but for those all over Spain. When I was first pregnant it was difficult to find information about having a baby in Spain. I stumbled across this site which featured the creator’s own birth story and emailed her. She was incredibly helpful and put me in touch with lots of other mums to be, some of whom I am still friends with today!!
Written by ‘a mum in Nueva Andalucia, with experiences of pregnancy, giving birth, choosing education, making friends, working, living, eating out and every day life’ this site is full of great, down to earth, ‘real’ information about the pro’s and con’s of living in Spain and all the above topics. Plus, lots of tried and tested recommendations and some very entertaining blogs!
Excellent and very useful website and magazine for all things natural in Andalucia. As well as articles and news of local events and exhibitions, there is a great resource directory covering everything from complementary medicine and spiritual healing to organic restaurants and eco friendly builders and product suppliers.
