Personal midwife

Welcome to our practice, where we provide small-scale care in our beautiful big city. Our care feels close, you really get to know your own midwives. This gives confidence. You really know who is there for you in this life-changing process.

DUO CASELOAD OBSTETRICS

Extra attention for you and your partner

We supervise approximately 5 to 6 pregnant women per month per midwife. This is about half of what is the norm in the Netherlands. So we spend extra time and attention on our clients to get to know you and your partner better and to provide more individualized care.

You will have your own personal midwife who works in a team with a second midwife. Your personal midwife will see you most of the checks and coordinate care with her. She is the link between you and (possibly) other healthcare providers such as a gynecologist, doctor, lactation consultant and consultation office.

The second midwife in the team is her back guard if your own midwife is free or unavailable. We therefore think it is important that you get to know both midwives, because one of the two is at the time of your delivery. This method is called duo caseload obstetrics.
