Need Quick Solution For Upcoming Trip!!!

Here is my situation:

I live in Vancouver, Canada and going for 2 weeks to Europe in 5 days. I have unlocked GSM phone and would like to stay in touch with my child. I would like my child to be able to call me any time she needs me (so using phone cards would not work). I am going to travel to 3 different countries: Spain starting in Madrid, then France, and finishing in Italy. Idea of buying different SIM cards in different countries does not look good; I am going to be on the go all the time and would not have time to look for SIM cards. International SIM card such as United Mobile sounds very good. My question is: is it possible to buy United Mobile SIM card in Europe (for example in London Heathrow airport or in Madrid) or it is only available on-line? I have no problem buying it from Internet store, but I only have 5 days before I leave and I do not think it is possible to ship it that quickly.

Would appreciate if somebody can offer some idias for my situation. Thank you very mych.
