We understand pregnancy, birth and the puerperium as physiological* processes!

 

We encounter... 

...to all people without bias. We want to make midwifery support accessible to everyone. Midwifery is an important part of promoting women's health and we want to strengthen this through low-threshold and multilingual services.

 

We see... 

...expectant and growing families at the centre of everything we do. We understand the word Family als übergeordneten Begriff, den jede Frau oder Mensch mit Uterus ganz für sich selbst definiert. Freund*innen, Geschwisterkinder, Großeltern und jegliche als Begleitung auserwählte Personen sind bei uns herzlich willkommen.

 

Wir bemühen… 

…uns um eine diskriminierungssensible und inklusive Begleitung von Menschen unterschiedlicher Körperformen, Körpergrößen, Gewichte, Geschlechter, Lebensweisen und gesundheitlicher Voraussetzungen.

 

We accompany...

...women according to their wishes and needs from the beginning of their pregnancy to the end of their child's first year of life. Pregnancy care plays a special role for us here, as the physiological* progression is assessed through regular check-ups. Sufficient time, peace and quiet and individualised information enable us to build up a mutual basis of trust. This basis promotes the freedom and ability to make decisions and strengthens women in their personal responsibility.

 

We support...

…Frauen während der Geburt ganzheitlich, achtsam und individuell. Der geschützte Raum des Geburtshauses, gekennzeichnet durch eine ruhige, private Atmosphäre, und die Begleitung durch vertraute Hebammen, ermöglichen es der Frau, sich aktiv auf ihren Geburtsprozess einzulassen.

For us as midwives, one-to-one care during labour allows us to continuously observe the woman and baby and support the physiological birth process with plenty of time, patience and appropriate external intervention.

 

We offer...

...offers counselling and courses as well as information events covering the entire spectrum from puberty to menopause. In addition to the original midwifery work, we want to create a place where various aspects of women's health are addressed holistically, such as a positive view of sexuality.

 

We want...

… the notion that we are part of an interdisciplinary team. We view cooperation with other professional groups, state services and institutions as valuable for us as a team, but even more so for the families in our care. Professional exchange, data protection compliance, binding agreements, and a respect for each other’s professional responsibilities, allow us to work seamlessly with our cooperation partners.

 

We are...

...there for each other as a team. We want to actively support each other, have understanding and appreciation for each other and be honest and open with each other. Our cooperation should be intensive and familiar, supported by joint agreements and regulated processes. Continuous dialogue, regular supervision and a positive error culture should help us to achieve these goals.

Wir arbeiten als Kollektiv mit geregelten Rufbereitschaften für eine gute Balance zwischen Beruf und Privatleben und legen Wert auf eine solidarische Vergütung unserer Tätigkeit. Das sind die Voraussetzungen dafür, dass wir noch lange in gesunder Verfassung arbeiten können. Das wiederum kommt den von uns betreuten Frauen und Familien zugute.

 

We have...

…den Anspruch auf eine hohe fachliche Kompetenz. Wir verbinden Erfahrung, Hebammenhandwerk und evidenzbasiertes Wissen in unserem täglichen Handeln. Einheitliche Standards helfen uns, als Team innerhalb eines definierten Rahmens zu agieren und bei der Ausgestaltung die besonderen Fähigkeiten und Schwerpunkte der einzelnen Teammitglieder zu beachten. Wir überprüfen und steigern die Qualität unserer Arbeit durch regelmäßige Fort- und Weiterbildung, das Studium aktueller Fachliteratur, den Austausch untereinander und die stetige Selbstreflektion kontinuierlich. Ein eigenes detailliertes Qualitätsmanagement-System hilft uns, diese Prozesse abzubilden und erhöht die Transparenz unserer Arbeit. 

 

We act...

…als Geburtshaus auch politisch aktiv. Wir setzen uns für das Selbstbestimmungsrecht der Frau zur freien Wahl des Geburtsortes ein, denn wir betrachten jeden Menschen als Expert*in für sich selbst. Wir versuchen, gender sensibel zu arbeiten und vertreten eine intersektionale feministische Denkweise. In unserem Haus versuchen wir, Rassismus nicht zu reproduzieren und konstruktiv mit Rassismuserfahrungen umzugehen.

We are committed to strengthening the profession of midwifery and out-of-hospital obstetrics in society and health policy.

 

We create...
...a place for training and further education. We want to make a contribution to the multifaceted and comprehensive training of future colleagues through extra-clinical practice assignments. In addition, the further and advanced training courses we offer expand the knowledge of midwives and related professional groups.

 

 

It does matter how we give birth!

We see... 

...expectant and growing families at the centre of everything we do. We understand the word Family as an overarching concept that every woman or person with a uterus defines for herself. Friends, siblings, grandparents and any other people chosen to accompany you are very welcome.

We support...

...women holistically, attentively and individually during labour. The protected space of the birth centre, characterised by a quiet, private atmosphere, and the support of a trusted midwife, enable the woman to actively engage with her birth process.

Our cooperation should be intensive and familiar, supported by joint agreements and regulated processes. Continuous dialogue, regular supervision and a positive error culture should help us to achieve these goals.

We work as a collective with regular on-call duties to ensure a good work-life balance and value fair remuneration for our work. These are the prerequisites for us to be able to work in good health for a long time to come. This in turn benefits the women and families we support.

 

We have...

...the demand for a high level of professional expertise. We combine experience, midwifery skills and evidence-based knowledge in our daily work. Uniform standards help us to act as a team within a defined framework and to take into account the special skills and specialisms of the individual team members when shaping our work. We continuously review and improve the quality of our work through regular training and further education, studying the latest specialist literature, exchanging information with each other and constant self-reflection. Our own detailed quality management system helps us to map these processes and increases the transparency of our work. 

 

We act...

...also politically active as a birth centre. We are in favour of a woman's right to self-determination to choose her own place of birth, because we see every person as an expert in their own right. We try to work in a gender-sensitive way and represent an intersectional feminist way of thinking. In our centre, we try not to reproduce racism and to deal constructively with experiences of racism.

We are committed to strengthening the profession of midwifery and out-of-hospital obstetrics in society and health policy.
