About Silvia Fasana

My personal experiences have
enriched and expanded my
understanding of the birthing
journey.

About Me

I was born in beautiful Como (Italy) on the 16th of March 1983.
In 2005, I graduated from University of Milano Bicocca in Midwifery and worked as a Midwife for 4 years in both the delivery room and maternity ward.
In 2009 I married Roberto and relocated to Dubai in 2011 and Singapore in 2021.

Then in 2024, we moved to Abu Dhabi.

I had 6 kids (lost one):

Viola, was born in Italy in 2010, and
Rachele was also born in Italy in 2011.
Stella was born in Dubai in 2014, followed
by Giorgia's birth in Dubai in 2017, and
Matilde in Dubai in 2020.

In 2016

I experienced a
baby loss

My 4th baby, Giacomo, was affected by anencephaly, a life limiting condition and he passed away 8 hours after his birth.
Along with the deep pain, we also felt an immense peace and love for our baby. His life was brief but meaningful and we were grateful to welcome him into our family, even if only for eight hours.
I decided to write about it to try help and support other mums and families in similar situations…

My personal journey captured
in a book - Eight
Hours of Eternity

After the loss of my baby, I decided to share my profound journey in a book — narrating not only his story, but also the journey of our resilient family.
Since its publication, I have connected with mothers worldwide who have found solace and support in its pages.

I have the privilege of personally experiencing everything I had studied in books, and I want to share them with pregnant women

I decided to come back to work after dedicating many years of my life to my children.

After taking a break from work for a few years, I made the decision to return to studying and obtained certifications as a Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator, Postpartum Doula, and Lactation Counsellor.

Review from my clients:

Angela

I can’t recommend Silvy’s Hypno Birthing class enough!

Thanks to her guidance, I had the dream birth I always hoped for.

The techniques she taught helped me stay completely relaxed. Silvy's calm demeanor and positive energy were exactly what I needed to stay grounded and confident.

Her support was invaluable, and I felt truly empowered every step of the way. If you're looking for a way to approach birth with peace and positivity, this is it!

Thank you, Silvy, for helping me have such an incredible experience!

Radha

I made a great decision to engage Silvia as lactation counsellor.

Not only she was super helpful and immediately guided me the right way to breastfeed that is specific for me and she came down right away when I was so stressed, but she also comforted me and made me feel sure of myself at a time when I was so vulnerable.

So grateful I met her.

Julie

I enjoyed the intimacy of our prenatal class, and how open Silvia was during all sessions.

She made it very easy for us to ask any questions, and also made sure that we understood what was going on in class.

We were extremely comfortable. There was no judgment on Silvia's end, and it made what felt like a very safe learning environment. She brought visual aid to the class to help us really understand.

I think the classes have prepared me to know what to expect in terms of what my body is going through during labor.

Each phase of labor was explained to us, so I'm hoping that as I'm going through each phase, I'll be able to connect the feelings/pain of my body with what Silvia has taught us.

Silvia is truly an exceptional
midwife.

She invests time to deeply understand your individual needs and then acts in alignment with them.

I attended her course along with a friend, and despite our vastly different experiences, fears, and backgrounds, Silvia skill fully tailored the discussions to cater to each of us. This ability to personalize even in a group setting is truly remarkable.

Silvia's emphasis on explaining the physiological aspects of our bodies and logically connecting them to techniques for a smoother and more 'enjoyable' delivery is invaluable.

Thanks to her guidance, my memory of my most recent delivery is significantly more positive than my first, even though I faced no issues in either case.

Her commitment to her patients goes beyond the delivery room. Silvia consistently follows up and genuinely cares for the well-being of women under her care.

After childbirth, she visited me at home twice to ensure I was well. She's always just a WhatsApp message away, offering reassurance and support, even when I wasn't reaching out.

With her background as a mother of five, Silvia's experience speaks for itself. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking exceptional care. Highly recommended.
