Elena

Elena is a fully qualified midwife, massage therapist, and pregnancy & postnatal personal trainer. Originally from Italy, she trained as a midwife after becoming a mother herself and has studied with some of the world's most respected names in the field, including Ina May Gaskin and the midwives of The Farm in Tennessee.

With nearly two decades of experience in maternity care across Italy, Central America, the U.S., and the U.K., Elena spent several years working in the NHS before founding her own private midwifery practice and launching Wise Mamas in Hastings, East Sussex.

She's a mother to her teenage son Luca and knows first-hand the importance of proper postnatal support, evidence-based guidance, and having a community of women who actually get it. 

Jen

Jen is a fully qualified personal trainer with a background in both triathlon and physique training. She has over 14 years experience working in commercial gyms and boutique studios. She has created her own successful personal development business and heavily focuses on the mind-body connection within her work. Being a mother of three young children, Jen has come to realise that not only does the phrase ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ ring true, but that ‘it takes a village to support a mama’ is perhaps even more paramount. Her fierce belief in this is what has brought her into the world of Wise Mamas.
