Maternity care
Maternity care
At Amare we like to work together with maternity care. Maternity care helps you as (new) parents in the first week after delivery with the care of your child and keeps an eye on the health of the mother. As a midwife we support the maternity care and we are ultimately responsible. As a team we hope to provide a good start!
Are you still unsure which maternity care organization suits you? Feel free to ask us!
What does maternity care do?
After your delivery, you will receive maternity care. The maternity nurse will help you and your partner with the new family situation. She will also keep a close eye on you and the baby, for example by measuring your and the baby's temperature daily. She will also weigh your child daily. If it is your first child, the maternity nurse will explain and show you a lot.
Useful to know
Arrange your maternity care on time: before the 16th week. You are entitled to 49 hours of maternity care. If you do not have additional insurance, you will pay a small personal contribution for maternity care. Some mothers take less than 49 hours, others more. The amount of maternity care you want depends on your personal situation. At Amare we can advise you on this.
