What People Are Saying

“Midwifery Practice Hygiea guided me through my first pregnancy, and I couldn’t have wished for better care. The team is skilled, kind, and genuinely involved. The practice is warm and welcoming, and they always think along with you. Their flexibility and availability made me feel supported throughout.

They also have their own ultrasound machine, so you never have to go elsewhere for a scan—and if they have time, they’ll even let you take an extra (free) peek at your baby. I would recommend this practice to anyone. We’ll definitely be coming back for any future pregnancies.”

“Just seven weeks after the birth of my daughter, I had my final check-up at Hygiea. After a lovely closing conversation, I walked out the door thinking, ‘how sad I won’t be seeing these wonderful women for a while.’

The practice is small, which makes the care very personal. The midwives are warm, caring, and professional. There was always time for a question, an extra check-up, or a scan. I truly appreciated the support during my pregnancy and will 100% be coming back when baby number two is on the way.”
— Florine Scheer

“I’m incredibly happy with this midwifery practice in Amsterdam—even though I live in Almere. From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease here. The team is warm, attentive, and highly professional. They really take the time to listen and provide the personal attention you need during pregnancy.

The care I received throughout both pregnancies was outstanding—from the very first ultrasound to the postpartum follow-up. The midwives are knowledgeable and know exactly how to put you at ease. Despite the distance, I would absolutely choose this practice again. Thank you so much for your fantastic care!”

“The atmosphere at the practice is warm and welcoming, with kind and experienced midwives. We were with Hygiea for both of our pregnancies and had many consultations with Popo and Flore. Flore even assisted during the birth of one of our children, which felt like such a bonus.

One of the highlights is coming back every three weeks and receiving an ultrasound with baby photos—especially during your first pregnancy, that’s something truly special.”
— FC Wei

  • “For my second pregnancy, I chose Hygiea—and I’m so glad I switched midwifery practices. What a difference compared to my first experience. Flore and Irena are skilled, attentive, and really take their time with you. On top of that, the atmosphere in the practice is very relaxed, with plenty of room for humor. Thank you so much for the wonderful care!”
    — Aimée Kaandorp

  • “A really great midwifery practice. The atmosphere is pleasant, and you’re well informed throughout. Even between appointments, you can always email with questions—they respond quickly. A nice bonus is that you get an ultrasound at every check-up.”
    — Evelien Schouten

  • “Such a wonderful practice. The midwives are incredibly kind and take the time to address all your questions and concerns. I also felt very well supported during the birth. I recommend Hygiea to everyone.”
    — Nathalie Jaddoe

  • “The midwives at Hygiea supported us wonderfully—from the very beginning of the pregnancy through to the postpartum period. They provide outstanding care and a sense of trust, going above and beyond what you would normally expect from a midwifery practice.

    We would recommend Hygiea to anyone looking for exceptional midwifery care!”
