Congratulations on your pregnancy! We are here to guide you through this special and exciting time.
We see pregnancy and birth as a natural process in which your body often knows exactly what to do. We support you from start to finish: from trying to conceive right through to the postnatal period. We offer professional support in an informal way, because we believe you only truly benefit from a midwife when you feel completely at ease. To get to know you properly and really support you, we schedule appointments of at least 30 minutes. That is much longer than with most midwives in Amsterdam-Noord.
For parents-to-be, we organise information evenings about giving birth and breastfeeding. During pregnancy we carry out routine scans, and we take an extra look with you if you feel uneasy. We also support you carefully with breastfeeding, together with a lactation consultant who is closely involved with our practice in Amsterdam-Noord.
We are Ellen and Omer, the midwives behind Pregnanta Maternity Care. When you step into our practice, you can be yourself and there is room for open conversation. We work in an honest and informal way, with attention and a pleasant atmosphere at the heart of everything we do. You can come to us with all your questions, big or small, without any hesitation. We like to take the time to really get to know you, and we invite you to come and meet us. With us you are not a number, but someone with your own story.
At our midwifery practice in Amsterdam-Noord and on Zeeburgereiland, you can come for a souvenir scan and medical scans. This means you don’t need to look for another location for these scans. The midwives at the practice are also the sonographers, so you get the most out of your care during appointments. During these scans we take plenty of time to discuss your baby’s health, give you a lovely view of him or her and explain the anatomy.
At Pregnanta Maternity Care we create a pleasant environment in which we give you a special look inside your belly, even if you are under the care of another midwife. And of course you’ll take home the most beautiful pictures of your little one!
Our Amsterdam midwives support you through every stage of the journey. To begin with, you can come to our experienced midwives with any questions about trying to conceive and which lifestyle is best for improving fertility. During your pregnancy we support you with all the common pregnancy complaints, the scans, breastfeeding or bottle feeding and everything you need to arrange before your little one arrives.
We also offer support after a miscarriage. Is it almost time for the birth? We tell you what to pack, when to call the midwife, what types of birth there are (for example a water birth) and how to cope with the pain. After your little one is born, we support you during the postnatal period, with postnatal visits and postnatal discomforts.
Support and care from A to Z: during your pregnancy, birth and postnatal period. But you can also come to us with questions before you are pregnant. We offer professional support and care in an informal way, because we believe you only truly benefit from a midwife when you feel completely at ease. To get to know you better and really support you, at Pregnanta Maternity Care our appointments last at least 30 minutes. That is much longer than with most midwives in Amsterdam-Noord.
For parents-to-be, we offer information evenings covering birth and breastfeeding. Scans are part of our routine care, and if you feel uneasy about your little one, we will carry out a scan when indicated. We also provide professional breastfeeding support through a lactation consultant connected to our midwifery practice in Amsterdam-Noord.
