Birth is powerful. So are you.

Support for international families navigating birth in Amsterdam. Grounded, inclusive, and on your terms.

Hi, I’m Lua. she/her​

 

I'm a psychologist, birth doula, and film photographer based in Amsterdam West. For the past seven years, I've been supporting international and expat families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, in English and Spanish, in their homes and in hospitals, through straightforward births and complicated ones.

What do I do? I bring you information, walk through your options, and ask the questions that help you get clear on what you actually want. The decision is always yours. And that decision gets easier when you know what's actually on the table.

What others say about Lua

"Working with Lua as our Doula was an amazing experience from the beginning until the end. We decided to work with Lua based on her experience but mostly our personal feelings with her as a person. Her background as a clinical psychologist was also really interesting to us as we wanted to have the right support both physically and psychologically for this key moment of our lives, especially as we are both expats and far from our families and support system. We really feel like we wouldn't have been able to do it without her calm, multiple advice, support and continuous encouragement as we went from our house to one hospital and then another.
She was like a big sister to us, who knows exactly how to help and when. Lua was there for it all and we can only recommend her services for anyone who wishes to be supported by a doula during pregnancy, labour, and beyond! "
