Who are we?

Who are we?

Djeruza Jamanica

Midwife

I am Djeruza 38 years old, married and we have two wonderful sons and a daughter. 

As a little girl, I always said I wanted to be a baby doctor. As I got older, I became more and more interested in midwifery care. This is a dream I had and I never wanted to give it up. I worked hard for it and my dream came true. It is my job to guide you in the transition to become parents. I will inform, coach and give you the confidence to make it a beautiful experience. After all, you can never repeat a delivery. 


Darlene and I recently started a duo practice. We fully agree with each other's working method. It is important to us that you know who can stand at your bedside. After all, you have to feel safe and trusted at the most unique and intense period of your life. You can expect our commitment and enthusiasm. Attention to you is paramount. We take the time to listen to you and adapt the care to your wishes. We have the most beautiful profession in the world! 


I hope to meet you soon.

Darlene Guda 

Midwife

My name is Darlene Guda, born and raised in Amsterdam with Surinamese roots. 
After I, as an 11-year-old girl, watched the program “De bevalling” on TV, I knew: “I want to become a midwife”. Without knowing exactly what the profession entailed, my love for pregnant women has only grown. I loved how the body could create a new person and the power you have as a woman to give birth to your child. It is a great honor to be part of that. I think it is important that the pregnant woman and her partner feel safe with me and have the confidence that they are in good hands. 

After several years of working as an observer in Amsterdam and Almere, Djeruza and I decided to join forces and start a practice together. Small-scale, personal care with extra time and attention. 

Hope to welcome you soon!

Davita Bensch

Permanent observer

My name is Davita and I am 26 years old. Born and raised in Amsterdam with Ghanaian blood.

This year I completed my studies in midwifery. From a young age I knew that I wanted to become a midwife. With this as my goal, I worked hard to make my dream come true.

In total, I have 10 years of experience in healthcare. I have worked as a nursing assistant and nurse. In my spare time I go to church and spend a lot of time on photography and graphic design.


The beginning of a new life is something beautiful and wonderful. The opportunity to guide a couple through this process is a great honor for me.

Natascha van Dijk

Permanent observer

I am Natascha, born and raised in Surinam.

After high school I moved to the Netherlands to continue my studies. It took some searching. Compared to many midwives who had known for a long time what they wanted to become, I did not know what the study entailed until the open day. When I heard from a passionate midwife what exactly being a midwife was, I knew. This is what I want to become. The perfect combination of biology, care, but also women's empowerment attracted me.



For me, believing in your own strength and body is central and I would like to guide you in this!

Our vision


A small-scale midwifery practice where you can contact us easily. No question is too crazy for us. Personal guidance, professionalism and attention are central to us. We rely on the physiological process and the strength of the woman during pregnancy, childbirth and maternity period. If you have specific wishes, please make them negotiable. 
The arrival of a baby is exciting enough. That's why we think it's important that you feel comfortable with us, that you can build a relationship of trust with us and that we enjoy these nine months together. 

See you soon in practice!
