Pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period are subjects I am excited about and, as the daughter of a midwife, I have grown up with an awareness of how important this special time in life is.
When I got pregnant in Copenhagen, I longed for more support myself, because the system here is different to the one in Germany.
No midwife home visits? No more care and support during this special time?
I wanted to prepare myself as much as possible for the birth. I knew I wanted to do a course in my mother tongue. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any courses in Copenhagen, so I attended a German online birth preparation course.
As the German system is quite different, we talked about many topics in the birth preparation course that were not relevant here in Denmark. At the same time, some elements that are only relevant here in Denmark were missing.
To get an idea of the Danish system, we also chose a 1:1 birth preparation course from our Danish doula.
I am convinced that our preparations for birth and postpartum are an essential element of how we start as a family.
While I was still on maternity leave I trained as a doula. I would like to offer other families, especially german speaking families, a support that makes them feel safe and secure. During pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Our start in life is so important.
My vision is to support couples on this individual path. Every couple needs something different and that's totally ok. I want to help you find your way in the Danish system.
