Home Birth

Note: Regrettably no homebirth services available 1.4-31.12.2019

The most important thing in a birth is an atmosphere of love, respect, trust and safety. Some women feel they can only achieve this at home. As midwives we will assist you in thinking about it, planning and making it a reality when you choose your home as the place for your birth.

As midwives we assist you in considering the home as your birth place and in planning your home birth. Should you choose to give birth at home, we are happy to assist you at your birth. After several years of attending at home births we have created a holistic home birth package that keeps you at the center of your birth, like your home, to where we will arrive respectfully as trusted and loving visitors ♥

  • Your pregnancies and births have been normal
  • Baby is not expected to be very tiny nor particularly heavy
  • Baby is born between pregnancy weeks 38+0 and 41+6
