Delivery

When labor begins, we are by your side. We provide support with calmness, trust, and attention to what you need at that moment.

We closely monitor the health of you and your baby while allowing space for your process and your way of giving birth.

Whether you give birth at home, in a bath, or in the hospital, we will continue to support you. We think along with you, provide clear explanations, and ensure a calm and familiar presence. Whenever possible, we work with respect for the natural course of labor and trust in the strength of your body.

Sometimes a delivery goes differently than expected. Even then, we stand by your side and guide you through any transition to medical care. We ensure a good handover and continue to pay attention to your experiences and wishes.

We work closely with the hospitals in the region, including Reinier de Graaf in Delft. When a delivery takes place in the hospital or medical care is needed, we ensure a safe and trusted collaboration.
