Does anyone know of a doula in 66? Internet searches are proving useless.

Sort of; it's like a cross between that and a midwife. They are not a nurse but they have had training, more of a coach than just someone to go along for you to shout at! :D hehe

Since you seem to be in the south of the region, have you considered a Spanish Doula. There are several that are possibly as close to you as the far reaches of the PO

I don't see her for a while so I thought I would check with people here but I will do as she is probably likely to know (I would hope) :)
