Rewriting the stories society tells about womanhood
Hi there! I’m Cindy
It’s Time to Get Body Literate
Do you know when you ovulate? It’s probably not on day 14 of your cycle. If you are pregnant, how do you picture yourself giving birth? Most women give birth on their backs, but this is usually far from the best position.
I grew up hearing the same narratives most of us are familiar with. Discovering Fertility Awareness methods completely changed how I viewed my body and the biology behind it.
The female body isn’t an anomaly, and our hormones are not random. They’re important for long-term health, and play off each other during labor to help us bring the next generation into the world.
I’m a sensiplan® educator and training to become a doula (birth coach). I’d love to help you reclaim your fertility, whether you’re childfree for life or trying for a family of 20.
It’s a bit off the beaten path, but that makes it all the more fun!
Give Birth Your Way
Our bodies are fully capable of giving birth, but we have always had support during labor. As a birth coach (a doula), I will be with you from the moment you call me until the baby is born.
While midwives sometimes need to transfer care to medical staff, and hospitals have shift changes, your doula is your constant companion.
I can help you find comfortable positions, provide counterpressure, and help you communicate with your care providers.
Having lived in Japan myself, I know how challenging it can be to navigate cultural and language barriers. That’s why I specialize in serving families who’ve moved to the Netherlands from abroad.
Reclaiming Our Fertility
I’m trained in the sensiplan® method, which can be used to avoid pregnancy or identify the optimal fertile window in each menstrual cycle. Curious? Find out more about my fertility awareness courses!
