Approach birth with confidence
During pregnancy, a wide range of emotions can surface: joy, wonder, and gratitude, but also uncertainty, fear, and loneliness. Many expectant mothers find themselves pondering questions such as:
- How can I prepare physically and emotionally for the birth?
- Will I cope with the intensity of contractions? Should I opt for pain relief?
- Will my medical care providers have the capacity to give me all the support I need?
- How do I stay in control of my own birth?
- My first birth experience was traumatic, how can I create a positive birth experience?
- Will my partner also be supported before and during labor?
As a doula, I support you – and your partner – in approaching the birth of your baby with confidence. Attuned to your unique needs and wishes, I'll help you navigate your journey into parenthood.
Am I the right doula for you?
A good experience with a doula starts with a personal connection. That’s why we always begin our journey with an in-depth video call, giving us time to meet each other, discuss your needs, and find out if we’re the right match.
Holistic
When a baby is born, so is a mother. It is an experience on a physical, mental and spiritual level that requires a holistic approach. The support is continuous regardless of how your birth unfolds, at home or in the hospital. My approach is down to earth, unbiased, loving and personal.
Informative
Throughout your pregnancy, you’ll learn practical techniques like breathing and birthing positions, as well as gain insight into various birth scenarios. We’ll also discuss navigating the medical system and aligning your birth plan with your personal preferences, so you feel informed and prepared.
Attention
for you and your partner
The support of your partner is vital, and I will not take over this role. On the contrary, I’ll guide your partner in gaining the knowledge and confidence to support you during and between contractions, stepping in only when needed.
