What I offer
I look after you from pregnancy through to the end of breastfeeding – individually, at your own pace and in your own home. As an independent midwife I make home visits to families in Frankfurt-Sachsenhausen (north and south), Neu-Isenburg, Dreieich, Oberrad and Niederrad. My focus is postnatal care and aftercare. I can look after you in English – everyday English rather than fluent, but enough for us to talk things through properly and take the time we need.
Antenatal care
Pregnancy care
I am there for you as your midwife from early in your pregnancy. I answer your questions about pregnancy and birth, help with common complaints such as nausea, back pain or water retention, and support you in preparing for the time ahead.
It is best to get in touch early – ideally between weeks 6 and 12 of your pregnancy.
Aftercare – my main focus
Postnatal care & breastfeeding
Aftercare is at the heart of my work. In the first days after the birth I visit you regularly at home. I check how your body is recovering, monitor your baby's development – weight, umbilical cord, general wellbeing – and support you with breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding support is naturally part of this care, as is nutritional advice on introducing solid food once your baby is the right age. I am also there for you if you feel unsure, if your mood is up and down, or if you have questions about everyday life with a newborn. Care continues until the end of breastfeeding.
Additional treatments
Complementary services
📍 Acupuncture
I use acupuncture both during pregnancy and after the birth – for example for nausea, back pain or trouble sleeping. From week 36 of pregnancy I offer birth-preparation acupuncture, which gently attunes the body to labour. Where needed, acupuncture can also be used specifically to help get labour started.
🩹 K-Taping
Kinesio taping offers targeted support for physical complaints: posture correction during pregnancy, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, C-section scar treatment, and blocked milk ducts or breast inflammation (mastitis).
🌿 Aromatherapy
Using pure essential oils, I support the recovery of the uterus, ease discomfort and help you relax. Aromatherapy can also be soothing when your baby has tummy ache.
✦ Low-level laser therapy
The soft laser is a gentle, pain-free method of supporting wound healing – for example with birth injuries, sore nipples or scar treatment. The therapy promotes cell regeneration and can relieve pain.
