As soon as I spoke to Montserrat I knew I wanted her to be my doula. She has a very natural and empowering approach to birth and will make you believe in your power to birth however you choose. I chose to have a homebirth and wanted extra support for myself as a first-time mom and for my husband. Montserrat made my husband feel very included and supported throughout the entire experience which was really important to me. She guided us through ways to have a healthy pregnancy, coping skills in labor and through a lot of spiritual and mental work to prepare for a positive birth experience. She had a lot of recommendations for us whenever I had questions and her advice always made me feel so much better. During my labor and birth, she was right by my side making sure I was comfortable and had all I needed. I’m so grateful for her and for my wonderful pregnancy and birth experience.

My experience with Montserrat was unique, not only did she prepare the room to be pleasant for my baby's arrival, but she was a great support for us. She helped us with the exercises, she was attentive every minute to all our needs. I 100% recommend! And, you have all her support before, during and after.
Montserrat was the best decision for this special moment.
Additionally, she also speaks Spanish which helped with communication with my mom.
We are very grateful to her.

Montserrat at Saasil Birth has redefined my prenatal yoga experience in the most wonderful way.
Unlike other classes that immediately delve into the physical aspects of prenatal yoga, Montse takes the time to check in on mindset first. This mindful approach of Khalsa Way prenatal yoga sets the tone for a holistic and supportive practice that goes far beyond the physical. Her practice seamlessly combines gentle postures with continuous movements, effectively preparing muscles for childbirth.
Montse's calming spirit was a guiding force during the crucial weeks leading up to my son's birth. Her emphasis on true relaxation of the mind contributes to a positive pregnancy experience. Montse encourages setting intentions for a healthy labor and delivery, fostering a positive mindset. In an area with limited options, Montse stands out as a trustworthy and knowledgeable prenatal yoga instructor.
Choosing Saasil Birth and Montse has been a game changer for my pregnancy journey. The care, expertise, and genuine passion for expecting mothers make her classes indispensable. I highly recommend her for any expecting mother seeking a transformative and trustworthy prenatal yoga experience. Five stars are simply not enough to express my gratitude.

“I've known Montserrat since our Khalsa Way Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training in Mexico. I vividly recall our first meeting. She possesses a beautiful smile and a radiant light around her. Her gentle presence invited me to open up, and we have bonded immediately and ever since.
“Montserrat has a natural gift for guiding and empowering those around her. Not only does she possess deep knowledge from pregnancy through labor and postpartum, but she is also passionate about empowering women to master their own lives through the tools she shares. What I love most about her is that she is an exceptional listener and a wonderful emotional supporter with a compassionate, warm heart. Her encouragement lifted my spirits during challenging times. Having experienced a home birth myself, I understand the significance of having a trusted doula in the most demanding moments, both physically and mentally.
“Montserrat is truly gifted, down-to-earth, and a radiant soul whom I highly recommend to all pregnant mamas.”
