About us
Vision
PERSONAL GUIDANCE DURING PREGNANCY
We believe personal and attentive guidance during pregnancy is important. To achieve this, we are happy to take the time for you and your partner to answer your questions.
Extra time is scheduled during the pregnancy checks inform you about the pregnancy, the possible tests, the delivery and breastfeeding.
Easily accessible midwife practice
We want to be an accessible practice. For example, we will always encourage you to call us if you have any doubts or concerns. You can also talk to us about topics such as breastfeeding, sexuality, pain management, expectations and the like.
Solid team of midwives
In our practice we offer freedom of choice with regard to childbirth (where and how). If you have clear wishes, it can be useful to make a birth plan. We will discuss this with you during the consultation hour. Where your wishes cannot be met, we will think along with you.

Our praxis

Linda: 20 years midwife at de Ooievaar, go-getter, tea lover, sweet, always time for chocolate.
Nynke: Midwife at de Ooievaar since 2004. I love people and sociability around me, but I also like to be by myself or together with my 2 children. I always feel very involved with my clients and therefore enjoy guiding them during this special period. No person is the same and that makes the work always challenging and never boring.
Linda: more than 10 years assistant at de Ooievaar, married, mother of two boys. Always time for sociability, listening ear, fond of a good cup of coffee.
Eva: Since 2022, I have been working as a midwife. After my graduation internship at De Ooievaar, I was able to stay on at this wonderful practice, and I’ve been working here with great pleasure ever since! I live with my boyfriend in Etten-Leur, and in my free time, I love going to a terrace with friends or family.
I find it truly special to guide pregnant women and their partners during this unique period in their lives. Every pregnant woman is different, which is why I believe it’s important to focus on what someone needs during pregnancy, childbirth, or afterward.
Kiki: I’m Kiki Bakers, and after my internship at this great practice, I started working at De Ooievaar in April 2025! I recently moved to Breda, and I’m really enjoying it here.
I’m an enthusiastic and honest midwife, and I feel privileged to be part of this special time. The unpredictability of a shift is what I find challenging and exciting! I’m always happy to get out of bed for a beautiful birth—but only after a good cup of coffee, which, besides births, is something you can always wake me up for! I also love doing fun things with friends and family. I look forward to meeting you. See you soon!
