Hadas & Elad T, Almere

Ayelet is very professional with tons of experience and knowledge about birth, she cleared away any question or doubts we had to make sure we come to the birth with less fear and more clear and peaceful mind. After our first birth experience we finally didn't feel alone and no matter which crew the hospital had, we knew we got her with us for support.
