Saar

Midwife

My name is Saar, I am 37 years old and I am the mother of two beautiful children (5 and 11 years old). After working for a while in the IJmond/Uitgeest region, I ended up at this fine practice 3 years ago. Back in the region where I once, almost ten years ago, started my very first internship as a midwife in training!! 

For me, midwifery is the most beautiful profession I can think of. Birth care in the Netherlands is unique in the world and we can be proud of that. It is always an honour to be involved in something as special as the birth process and pregnancy.

I bring my own experiences as a mother of two beautiful children (11 and 5) into my work. Both births were beautiful, formative experiences (a very smooth home birth and a long medical birth) that I look back on very well. Pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period are often an intensive period in a person's life. The adjustment to parenthood is wonderful and can be overwhelming at times. As a midwife, I think it is important to guide this process with attention to all the emotions that come with it. 

I've completed a minor health-psychology which awakened my interest in psychology/health-psychology a lot! in addition to my work now, as a midwife, I study (social) psychology at the university for extra depth

Motherhood, parenthood... not always a pink cloud. I think it is very important that this is not a taboo and that it can be discussed. I see it as a big and important aspect of my work, to support pregnant women in this as well. Welcome to our fine practice!
