What distinguishes us from a ´regular´ practice?

Pregnancy is an extremely personal journey. At Dana Center, we understand that each pregnancy is unique, as are the wishes of each individual. If you’re looking for exceptional care, you’ve come to the right place. Our holistic approach sets us apart from mainstream care. To make this special care possible, we charge a co-payment.

Unique care at midwives Driebergen region

We offer a unique combination of midwifery care and Doula support. This means that we are by your side throughout the birthing process, from beginning to end. Even if there is a medical necessity and you need to go to the hospital for further care, we stay with you as a doula while medical responsibility is transferred to the hospital staff. We continue to support in our role as doula for as long as you wish.

In our experience, having a familiar face at your delivery significantly increases the likelihood of a positive birthing experience.

The trajectory of midwifery care at Dana Center look like?

As soon as you discover you are pregnant, you are welcome for a no-obligation consultation at Dana Center. We will take ample time to discuss your needs and expectations. If you choose to be accompanied by us, we will see you an average of 10-12 times during your pregnancy, with consultations lasting 45 minutes each time. Around week 35, we will also come to your home. One of these consultations includes an extended session of 1.5 to 2 hours, in which we go deeper into aspects that still need attention in preparation for childbirth and maternity. You can contact our ultrasound technician for standard ultrasounds such as the term ultrasound and the 13- and 20-week ultrasound, but also for ultrasounds at your own request. During the delivery we are present and in the postpartum week we come to your home for support, not only for medical checks, but also for emotional and practical guidance in the first days after delivery. We conclude the process with a follow-up check-up appointment about 6 weeks after delivery.

Services of Dana midwives Driebergen region

How many ultrasounds pregnancy?

“During your pregnancy, we offer a standard term ultrasound (between 10-12 weeks), the 13-week ultrasound and the 20-week ultrasound. These ultrasounds are fully reimbursed and are free of charge to you. The decision to make use of this offer lies entirely with you; these ultrasounds are not mandatory. In some cases, additional ultrasounds may be offered, for example, if you have blood loss, the location and position of the placenta are uncertain, there are concerns about the baby’s growth, or if you want to know the position of your baby. These additional ultrasounds can be performed by our in-house ultrasound technician at Dana Center.

Pretecho midwife practice Driebergen region

Want to know the gender of your baby or just want to take a longer look at your little one? Besides the standard ultrasounds, we also offer pretecho’s on request. Although these are not reimbursed and only available in Zeist, we still offer a solution for parents-to-be in Driebergen and the surrounding area.

Integral Pelvic Therapy by midwives Driebergen region

“Our holistic pelvic therapy, Integral Pelvic Therapy, is an integral part of our pregnancy counseling. We restore balance to the pelvis through gentle external and, if necessary, internal massage techniques. By paying special attention to the pelvic area during pregnancy, we have found in practice that fewer interventions are needed during childbirth, making it smoother and with fewer complications.”
