WELCOME TO VERLOSKUNDIGENPRAKTIJK AANVANG Your midwife in Hilversum and surroundings

We receive a 9.8 from our mothers! Wow, we are proud of that! Mothers tell us that they experience our practice as a “warm bath,” that our care is personal and involved, and that we are always there for them. And that’s right. In addition to the best obstetric care, you can count on a lot of personal attention from us. This allows you to go through your pregnancy feeling confident and well prepared for childbirth.

See you soon at Aanvang!

More about our practice

We take all the time for you and your partner with 20 minutes per checkup (instead of the usual 10).

You can attend our consultation hours during the day or in the evening.

We work with a regular team of midwives; you get to know all of us.

Mothers describe our counseling as warm, personal and involved.

Would you like to give birth in a bath or another position? In this, too, we will of course assist you.

What parents appreciate about our care is that we are driven, have a lot of knowledge and are always innovating. As such, our care is involved, professional and up-to-date.

We will do an initial ultrasound early in the pregnancy. This happens in our own practice, with the latest equipment. You see your beautiful baby, pictured large on the wall.

We also offer lactation assistance (help with breastfeeding) in the period after your maternity week.

We do blood draws at the practice.

Sometimes a pregnancy goes wrong. Also in this case you can count on our support. Mothers indicate that they have been very well helped by us.

REVIEWS & EXPERIENCES

Very pleasant midwifery practice. We were well supported before, during and after delivery. We felt our unexpected home birth much more confident because of Madelon’s fine help. Also super that 2 midwives are also lactation consultants!

Commencement is a midwifery practice where time is taken for you. They are
Knowledgeable, helpful and compassionate. During your pregnancy you will be pleasantly guided and well prepared for your delivery. The appointments/check-in moments are fun/fun and professional at the same time, no question is (too) crazy. During and after your delivery you can also count on Aanvang, the midwives provide pleasant (after)care. You always feel like they are there for you here!

Great service, great midwives, calm, listening, giving support, knowledgeable, professional. All the three ladies are friendly and with great attitude. If you are having your pregnancy and delivery with them, you made right choice and you can be sure all will go as it should.

For the second time supported by “the Commencement ladies”…. This time we wanted (if possible) to give birth at home. And we succeeded, a bath birth! I have experienced this as very pleasant. The atmosphere, the relaxation… The VK in question indicated which positions I could adopt and checked the baby’s heartbeat. We are very happy with this experience, such a difference compared to the hospital. I wish this to everyone!

Very fine knowledgeable and committed midwives work at this practice. No question is (too) crazy and all the time is taken for you. In all three pregnancies, deliveries and puerperium this is how I experienced it!

The ladies at the start always take their time for you. They listen to you and give you confidence when you need it. Sometimes I thought it was silly to call when I was unsure about something, but no call was crazy or too much. What I also particularly appreciate is that all the ladies are well read. Whether you’ve seen them before or not, they make you feel like they know you and are always up to date on everything. I always feel comfortable there.
