Why Uniek Geboortezorg?
At Uniek Geboortezorg, we believe that pregnancy and birth are a UNIQUE journey. A journey that deserves personal attention, continuity, and genuine care for the future or new mum, not just for the baby.
Our unique approach:
Everything under one roof
Midwifery care, ultrasounds, aftercare such as contraception, and our own Mama & Baby Spa: you do not need to go anywhere else. One trusted team guides you from beginning to end.
Personal care tailored to you
We truly take the time for you. We listen to your wishes and your situation, and together we create a care plan that suits you, from the wish to have a child until long after birth.
Care that goes further
We start around 8 to 10 weeks and remain involved throughout your pregnancy, birth, and the important period afterwards. You are at the centre, also as a new mum.
Relaxation and special memories
Alongside excellent medical care, we offer treatments in our own Mama & Baby Spa, such as mama massages and floats. Through our collaboration with Belly Print, you can also have a beautiful sculpture made of your pregnant belly, a unique memory for life.
Accessible and close by
Always a familiar face and direct contact. You can easily reach us by WhatsApp, phone, or email.
