Empowered birth begins here✨

Join me for a transformative Holistic Birth Preparation Workshop where we’ll dive deep into the true physiology of birth and connect with the power of our bodies.

In this workshop, we’ll explore:

• The natural rhythms of birth and how to flow with them
• Breathing techniques that release tension and invite calm
• Movement to open, release, and guide baby gently down the birth canal
• Hypnobirthing methods for mind-body connection and relaxation
• Harnessing the power of your mind to bring strength and peace during labor
• Learning how to create a birth plan and going through your rights and options at the hospital

Whether you’re preparing for your first or fourth birth, this workshop will leave you feeling informed, grounded, and empowered to trust your body every step of the way.

Let’s walk this journey together, honoring your body and your baby, as you step into your strength and power. 🌙

As a holistic doula & birth coach I decided to not share my due date with anyone.

Why?

Because I don’t believe in due dates. As simple as that.

A “due date” is actually just an estimate. Calculated as 40 weeks from the first day of your last menstrual period. But studies show that only about 4–5% of babies are born on their exact due date.
Most full-term pregnancies range from 36 to 43 weeks, and many healthy babies arrive well outside that narrow window.

Despite this, once you share your due date, it becomes a countdown, often leading to unnecessary pressure, questions, and anxiety if the baby doesn’t come “on time.”

That pressure can impact stress levels, which affects maternal hormone balance and even labor progression.

My advice:
Let go of your “due date” mama and create space presence over prediction, intuition over information.

Birth is not a deadline, it’s a journey.

What a fertile, flourishing, blooming year it has been for Mama of Light!🤩🥹💓
Literally and figuratively! 🤪

I did the count and this past year I worked with over 215 women on our island! Can you believe it?
From 1-1 Birth Preparation Sessions, to Womb Healing and Yoni Steaming Sessions to Birth and Postpartum Care and the many workshops I hosted!

I am still in awe that Mama of Light and my knowledge and care is trusted this deeply by the many women on our island.
I have a heart filled with deep gratitude for this.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing to work with me and from also allowing me to learn from each one of you!

The year to come is going to be an even more powerful and exciting year as I myself embark on the wonderful journey of motherhood.
For the first half of the year I will be with maternity leave, enjoying my little bubble.
I will be sharing a part of my journey but still keeping it very much private and intimate.

After my rebirth I am pretty sure that Mama of Light will also be born anew together with me.

Let’s see what 2025 has is store for us!🤩💓✨🤰🏽

With each woman I work with, with each story I hear, with each birth I attend, with each postpartum mama I take care of, the more I realize this truth:

The first form of intervention in birth or anything related to feminine health is that of going against your INTUITION.

I realize more and more that there is nothing more important in birth preparation and motherhood than forming a deep connection with your body, your intuition and therefore with the Divine within.

Our intuition is the primary source of information and truth.
And once you realize this, you stop giving your power away to people, corporations and health systems whose foundation is build upon fear and the belief that the woman’s body is broken.

Realize for a moment that no one has greater authority & wisdom than you do about yourself, your body, or your child.

Let this deep intuitive love within become your guide and watch the fear disappear.

Watch yourself step into a complete embodied version of yourself where health, pleasure, joy and bliss become your new reality.

Stepping into my Mama of Light era! 🥹💓✨

Beautiful women,

I am overjoyed to share with you that I have stepped into the wonderful portal of motherhood. I have been chosen to be the mother of this sweet angel that is now cocooning in my womb and I couldn’t be more excited.

As I slowly start preparing for the birth of this baby and my own rebirth, there are a lot of new changes coming to my other baby: This wonderful soul business of mine, Mama of Light Aruba💓

I will be taking a long break to enjoy this pregnancy and to fully honor my postpartum period. The month of December 2024 will be my last month of offerings and I’ll be back serving our beautiful community of women next year May/June with a renewed sense of purpose.

With that said, I will not be attending more births or offering postpartum care at home.
If you are currently pregnant and want to book 1-1 sessions or you’re a woman interested in my Womb Healing/ Yoni Steaming Sessions this is your chance to book your sessions with me.
October is full booked but I still have plenty availability in November and December.

Also for the pregnant mama’s that want to create a moment of relaxation in their week and learn different techniques for labor and birth but not interested in 1-1 work:

I am opening spots for a 7-week Prenatal Yoga & Movement Program that will end with a Pregnancy Workshop Circle. The program will start on the 17th of October. There are only 12 spots available.

More information on this tomorrow😍💓

With love,

Roxanne🤍

The Golden Hour After Birth: A Sacred Transition 🌸

The golden hour after birth is a magical time that holds immense significance, both spiritually and biologically.
It is described as that first hour after birth. I of course believe that it’s much longer than that.

This precious moment is not just about bonding; it’s a vital period that nurtures the well-being of both mother and baby. 🤱🏽✨

Biologically, skin-to-skin contact during this hour helps to regulate your newborn’s body temperature, heart rate, and breathing. This natural warmth and closeness promote a sense of security and well-being for the little soul, helping them transition smoothly into the world.

For mothers, this time is equally crucial. Engaging in skin-to-skin contact releases oxytocin—the “love hormone”—which fosters an immediate bond and promotes breastfeeding. This surge of oxytocin not only aids in milk production but also helps to reduce stress and anxiety, creating a peaceful environment for both mother and child.

Did you know that many mothers that have trouble breastfeeding is because they didn’t experience this very crucial and intimate moment with their baby?🥲

This is something you can easily write on your birth plan. All the measurements, weighing and dressing can be done after an hour or more from the birth time.
Medical staff will leave you alone in this intimate moment and when you’re ready to shower and get dressed you call them back in.

Birth is sacred, it’s slow. It should be supported with ease. Not with rush.

Know your rights mama🌷

With Love,

Roxanne🤍

Beautiful Mama🤍

Even though the services of a Doula are becoming more and more known on our island, I still receive questions about what exactly do I offer as a Doula to the expectant (or postpartum) mothers of our beautiful island.

So with this post you can get a little review of what you can expect to receive from me when you book prenatal sessions or hire me as your birth/postpartum Doula🥰

You can read all about my unique offerings on my website or through the link in my bio!

PS: My agenda for July is almost full. So if you’ve been wanting to book one of my offerings for the upcoming month now is your chance!

Mama’s! YOUR KNOWLEDGE IS YOUR POWER!

Based on your knowledge your will make choices and your choices will determine your experiences.

Did you know that your pregnancy, birth & postpartum experience is completely up to YOU?

Medical staff is here to advise you, but if you do not agree or feel comfortable with their advice, you can decline all of it!
This is something that not many women/mother’s know.

You will be surprised to know how many (negative) side effects and risks many of the protocol procedures that are currently being done in the birth system actually have!

I am here to remind mothers of this.
This is a simple guide to help you in that INFORMED decision making.

The best way to do this is to have a birth plan.
During the Mama in Bloom Sessions I guide mama’s-to-be in creating one.
I also explain all the benefits, risks and side effects of the medical and non-medical procedures, so you can make informed decisions about your birthing experience.

To book Mama in Bloom session or package feel free to visit the link in my bio, DM me or WhatsApp me on +2975664478.

With love,

This specific birth I attended a few weeks ago will forever have a special place in my heart.

At only 17 years of age, unexpected pregnancy, this mama approached me a few weeks before her birth because she wanted to do some prenatal sessions with me to prepare for birth.

As I got to know her and her story better, I immediately felt a deep connection to her and her baby.

She was afraid of birth. Afraid that they would not take her seriously at the hospital because of her age. Afraid of pain. Afraid she would not be a good mother to her baby.

I think I felt an instant connection to her because at her age, my own mother had me too.

My own mother did not have any support or guidance 25 years ago during her first pregnancy with me. This was really heavy and heartbreaking for her, being just a child.

So, I immediately felt like I was rewriting a story with the guidance and support I was offering to this mother.
I was healing the wounds of my own mother through her.

After a few sessions, she decided to hire me as her Birth Doula.
At 41 weeks and 5 days, medical staff wanting her to be induced and her refusing all of it, her baby came naturally and I was there with her throughout the whole process.

Watching her birth in her full power was something I will never forget.

Holding her hand and comforting her as she was riding through intense contraction waves healed parts of me I didn’t know needed healing.

This was just one of the many beautiful experiences I’ve had doing this work in the last couple of months.

I thank God everyday for this path I am walking and for all the beautiful mama’s and women that choose to walk together with me.

🤍✨
