Deeply Mum
Hello everyone, I’m Alex.
I’m a doula, baby massage teacher, aquanatal teacher and maternal personal trainer.
I love my job but I’ve also always loved to write!
When I was younger I wrote about everything: thoughts, little stories, poems, diary pages, songs…
Writing has accompanied me for years and has always been by my side; the pen was a companion in difficult times and a friend in good ones.
During the first lockdown I was pregnant and stuck at home like everyone else, so I decided to use my pen again, but this time I would love to share what I wrote with you all.
Enjoy the reading!
Alex
