A home midwife—not just a lactation consultant

When breastfeeding becomes difficult, what’s usually missing isn’t information—it’s someone to take a look. At Maternify, you’ll be seen by a licensed midwife with specialized training in breastfeeding, who will assess your baby’s latch, your position, the condition of your breasts, and your baby’s sucking right where you breastfeed every day.

That's the difference between reading an article and having someone actually see what's going on. The midwife doesn't arrive with a set approach: she observes a full feeding, makes any necessary adjustments with you, and gives you a plan you can follow on your own.

If there are no appointments available in your city, or if you'd prefer to start there, we also offer video calls. During the online consultation, we'll review a live video feed, answer any questions you may have, and let you know when it's time for the midwife to come to your home.

Is your question not about breastfeeding? If you need to talk to a midwife about pregnancy, the postpartum period, or the first few months with your baby, we offer online and in-home midwife consultations.

Home Midwife

A midwife will come to your home—usually within 24 to 48 hours of your inquiry—and stay as long as you need her to: the visit typically lasts between an hour and a half and two hours. Available in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Zaragoza, Málaga, Murcia, Alicante, Bilbao, Mallorca, and Salamanca, as well as many other cities. 155 €.

Online Midwife

A one-hour video call with a midwife, from anywhere in Spain. This service is designed to answer questions, review a live ultrasound scan, and provide follow-up care after a home visit. 95 €.

When to Call a Midwife and When to Go to the Emergency Room

A lactation consultant can help you with pain while breastfeeding, cracked nipples, latch issues, the feeling of low milk supply, weaning, or returning to work. There are situations that require immediate medical attention and cannot wait for an appointment: a high fever, a very painful and red lump in the breast, or a baby who stops wetting diapers. In these cases, contact your health center first or go to the emergency room.

FAQ

Questions about the lactation consultant service

Do you have any more questions? We have the answers.

Will the lactation consultant also teach me how to care for the baby?

Of course! Our consultations aren’t just about breastfeeding—that’s why we also call them home visits. Here are the topics we cover:
Baby care:
- umbilical cord care
- how to hold your baby
- how to burp your baby
- how and when to bathe your baby
- colic
- assessing latch and frenulum

Postpartum care for the mother:
- how to manage bleeding
- stitches, if you have them
- emotional support: identifying symptoms of postpartum depression
- identifying pelvic floor issues

If you need a general consultation regarding pregnancy, postpartum care, or newborn care, you can schedule an online or in-home consultation with a midwife.

I have health insurance. Can my insurance cover a Breastfeeding consultation?

If you have reimbursement insurance, it is possible. Although we do not work directly with medical companies, you can always submit the supporting invoice if you have reimbursement insurance and the service is covered by your policy. They usually cover up to 80% of the cost of services like this.

Can I gift a session with a Maternify lactation consultant?

Of course! Many people use us to help their family or friends.

Can my company pay for a Maternify Breastfeeding consultation ?

Absolutely! Maternify is already a benefit for employees at several multinational companies. The company decides how much it wants to make available to each employee, and Maternify takes care of them throughout their pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum process, so that their return to work is as smooth as possible.

What is the difference between a midwife and a lactation consultant?

A midwife is a nurse who specializes in obstetrics and gynecology and holds an official healthcare license and a professional registration number. A lactation consultant is someone who has received specific training in breastfeeding; they may or may not be a healthcare professional. At Maternify, breastfeeding visits are always conducted by a midwife with additional training in breastfeeding, so in addition to assessing your baby’s latch, she can evaluate your postpartum recovery and your baby’s development. If you’re looking for a consultation with a midwife that isn’t related to breastfeeding, we offer online and in-home midwife consultations.

Are there any in-home midwives in my city?

We offer in-home services in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Zaragoza, Málaga, Murcia, Alicante, Bilbao, Mallorca, Salamanca, and many other cities. If your city isn’t listed, click “Check Your City” and we’ll confirm availability before you book. And if we don’t serve your area, we offer online consulting, which is available throughout Spain.

How soon can I have a midwife come to my home?

Usually within 24 to 48 hours in any of the cities where we offer home delivery. Message us on WhatsApp at 623 960 407, and we'll confirm the earliest available date before you book.

Will you help me if I'm doing mixed feeding or bottle-feeding?

Yes. The counseling isn't just for exclusive breastfeeding. The midwife will also support you if you're doing mixed feeding or formula feeding: bottle feeding, amounts, feeding schedules, and transitioning from one method to another—without judgment and respecting whatever you've decided.

Can you help me get ready to go back to work?

Yes. The midwife will teach you how to pump milk, store it, and plan for pumping in advance, so you can build up your own milk supply at home before returning to work.

How long does the consultation last?

The online consultation lasts one hour. For in-home visits, we don’t work by the clock: the midwife stays as long as you need, and the visit usually lasts between an hour and a half and two hours. Afterward, we’ll send you supporting materials to reinforce what you’ve learned.

What are your hours?

Our customer service hours are Monday through Friday, from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Appointments and consultations can be scheduled for any day of the week and at any time, depending on the availability of our midwives.
