Hi, I'm Mari

I'm a Mütterpflegerin in training passionate about supporting mothers and families during one of the most important transitions of their lives. I'm originally from Puerto Rico, a native Spanish speaker, fluent English, and German B1 speaker.

​

Caring for children and supporting families has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I began babysitting at 14 and have since cared for children of all ages. As an aunt to four wonderful nieces and nephews, I also had the privilege of supporting my sisters throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Being present during those first precious weeks showed me just how meaningful it is to care not only for a newborn, but for the mother as well.

Life has a way of bringing us back to what we love, and for me, that has always been supporting women through motherhood.

Why I Do This

As an international woman living in Berlin, I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate processes like pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood without the support of family nearby. Many international families are also faced with a language barrier and may not know what resources, services, or support systems are available to them in Germany.

Nurtured by Mari was created with a simple belief:

every mother deserves support.

My Mission

To professionally guide and help families feel informed, empowered, and cared for during pregnancy and the postpartum period, with a special focus on international families living in Berlin.

Through education, guidance, and compassionate support, I hope to make the transition into parenthood feel less overwhelming and more connected.

​

My goal is to help bridge that gap. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where mothers feel seen, cared for, and never alone.

 

Because when a mother is cared for, the whole family benefits.
