What others are saying about us
“Warm, knowledgeable, caring & loving”
We are very grateful that you ( Martine) and Dana Center came our way. The journey we took with Martine during pregnancy and childbirth felt warm, knowledgeable, healing, caring and loving
Thanks to your confidence, I dared to give birth at home in my own safe bubble. I am eternally grateful for that. Also during the delivery you were a rock. 1000 thanks for everything!
Love, A.
“Thank you for everything!”
Martine, you are golden! Truly a very special person. We want to thank you so much for everything you did for us. It has not only made for a super nice delivery, but also for more freedom. Both physically and mentally, because of the IPT sessions. This means so much to me and our relationship. I have no words for it..except: Thank you for everything! And if we can ever do anything for Dana Center we would love to hear about it! Much love!

“The warmth and love what this center exudes”
Dear warm people of Dana center, our thanks cannot be expressed in words. I would really grant this center to any woman and I am very happy that I granted it to myself. After my first delivery in the hospital 7 years ago, I did not dare to get pregnant again, but the desire to become a mother remained very strong. And then Dana center came our way. The warmth and love that this center radiates and the totally different approach to pregnant women helped me take the step and I have never regretted it.
All the sessions were so special and nice. It helped me process my previous delivery and give it a place and go into this one with a lot of confidence. Eventually I gave birth at home together with Martine and I never could have imagined that. Thank you for putting me back in my power as a woman.
Love Stefan, Marieke, Noé and Olen
“IPT was a valuable addition”
Desiring a more personal and holistic approach during this pregnancy, Dana center came our way.
The guidance we received played a major role in how we look back on this special period in our lives.
We experienced warmth and personal attention from everyone at Dana. But in particular we are grateful for Martine, who guided us from beginning to end with her expert and loving approach. The IPT sessions were a valuable addition in the whole process. Experiences around the birth of our first child found a place and I went into the delivery of our second child strong and confident. Because of a vbac we chose the hospital, where Martine assisted us and the clinical team was a good addition. Martine interacts with the clinical team in a very nice way. Partly because of this, I experienced a very positive and calm atmosphere.
I felt heard, seen and supported. It was an unforgettable process that ended with the beautiful birth of our son.

“Your care goes so much further.”
We would like to thank you for the great care and guidance you gave us throughout our pregnancy, during the birth of our baby and in the first days afterwards. Your way of working in teams of two midwives allowed us to get to know you and you us.
Partly because of this, we enjoyed this special time and were able to live it with confidence. Your care goes beyond practical matters, we feel privileged with the warm and loving attention you gave us!
Warmest regards, T. R. & F.

“It was well worth the money”
This practice does so much more than provide care for pregnant women. I experienced it as a very special, wonderful journey to the birth of our baby. The people who work there truly stand heart and soul for what they do. The warmth, love, the softness, everything can be there. Martine, the midwife, also mentioned how special it is to go through this whole process together. Making a conscious choice for what suits you and your child. And that also costs money. I consciously chose Dana Center and it was well worth the money…and that is not in money

“Even though everything went differently, I felt in my power.”
Thank you Martine for being at Elijah’s birth. That you helped me adopt a different position that was much nicer than the one the hospital suggested. Thank you for being there in the crowded setting where there was really no room for us. Even though everything turned out differently than hoped, I felt tremendously in my power. You and the other midwives at Dana really do very important and beautiful work. Thank you for your loving guidance. You are a beautiful person and thank you for being there for us!
Much love, mom & dad of Elijah.
