yourdoula.veronika Dear Mamas,
Motherhood abroad can feel overwhelming. As your Doula I would be honored to be there for you, supporting you and your family with love and care.

As an English-Hungarian speaking doula in the Netherlands, I support Expat and Hungarian families through pregnancy, birth & early motherhood in the Gouda area - so you don’t have to do it alone 💛 Dear Mamas and Mamas to be,

Motherhood is an amazing journey, but also a wild one - you probably have lots of questions, ideas and doubts. No matter where you are in your journey, at the beginning of yo

ur pregnancy or even in the postpartum period, if you feel like you could use a helping hand or a pair of non-judgemental ears please do not hesitate to contact me, and we can grab a tea to see if we match.

"Can I see your work?"

Absolutely. 🤍

My work doesn’t look like a polished office, a fancy uniform, or a 9–5.

It looks like holding space while a mother finds her strength.
It looks like reminding a partner, “You’ve got this.”
It looks like a hand to hold, a calm voice in the middle of intensity, and evidence-based support when decisions feel overwhelming.
It looks like nourishing a new mama, helping her rest, and caring for her while she learns her baby.

As a birth and postpartum doula, my work is people.
It’s the moments that often happen behind closed doors - the raw, beautiful, exhausting, powerful moments of becoming a parent.

So yes… this is my work.
And I’m honored every time I’m invited into it. 🤍

I’m back from my social media detox.

Fully charged. Re-energized. Full of motivation, fresh inspiration, and a whole new spirit. ❤️

I’ve had some incredible experiences on this journey, and I’ll definitely be sharing more about it soon. Some of it is still sinking in and needs a little time to be processed… 🌊

But for now, there’s only one thing to say:

Dear Virtual World - I’m back. 👋📱

And it feels GOOD to be here again.

"Don't worry. You don't need to prepare. Your midwife will tell you what to do."

No.

Your midwife is there to provide excellent clinical care.

But birth isn't just a medical event.

It's physical.

It's mental.

It's emotional.

And when you're giving birth in a country that's not your own, preparation matters even more.

Understanding your options.

Learning how your body works.

Knowing how to cope with contractions.

Talking through your fears.

Feeling confident enough to make informed decisions.

Because birth doesn't start when labor begins.

It starts in the months before, with how you prepare.

🤍 That's why I help expat families in the Netherlands prepare for birth - not just physically, but mentally and emotionally, too.

A little (re)introduction 🤍

I'm Veronika, a Doula & Early Childhood Specialist.

I believe birth isn't just a medical event - it's one of life's biggest transitions. That's why I'm passionate about supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the first years of parenthood, so they feel prepared, empowered, and never alone.

I'm so happy you're here.

Content can wait.
Supporting families, raising my own, and being fully present - that's the real behind-the-scenes.
One day I'll get the aesthetic B-roll.
Today, this one clip is enough. 🤍

Last day of peuterspeelzaal before the summer holidays. ☀️💛

We're definitely going to miss our daycare family, but at the same time, we're so ready to slow down. I can't wait for the slow mornings, long cuddles, and nowhere-to-be kind of days.

I can feel that my little one is tired... and honestly, so am I. This break comes at exactly the right time.

I'm so incredibly proud of him. Such a little boy, yet every day he happily walked into "school" with excitement, eager to learn, play, and come home showing us everything he had discovered.

Here's to a summer of rest, connection, and making beautiful memories together. 🌻

Before every Doula Discovery call, I take a few moments to slow down and prepare - not just my space, but my heart.

A lit candle. A calming atmosphere. A few affirmation cards to remind me why I do this work.

Your intake call isn't about having all the answers. It's a chance for us to get to know each other, talk about your hopes, questions, and wishes for your birth, and see if we're the right fit.

I'm honored every time someone invites me into such a meaningful chapter of their life. 🤍

Ready to connect? I'd love to meet you.

There’s something so special about preparing a postpartum meal for a new mum.

As I chop, simmer and plate each dish, I'm thinking about more than just the food. I'm thinking about her recovery, her energy, her comfort, and the fact that she's giving so much of herself to her baby.

A nourishing meal is one small way of saying, "You've been taking care of everyone else — this is someone taking care of you."

Postpartum isn't just about getting through the days. It's a time when your body deserves warmth, nourishment, and support as it heals.

It’s an honour to create meals that help make that season just a little gentler, one homemade dish at a time. 🤍

What meal made you feel most cared for after having a baby?

You're either going to follow me... or unfollow me after this.

If you want someone to tell you birth has to be perfect, I'm not your doula.

If you want honest support, evidence-based information, and someone who understands what it's like to give birth far from home...

Welcome. ❤️
