More About My Story

Being born 1983 in East Germany I felt disconnected from society's norm physically and psychologically very early in life. No wonder, as it was standard procedure to separate the babies from the mothers right after birth for up to 4 days. The nurses would bring us to our mothers to nurse every 4h. Skin to skin bonding was not allowed. Feeling disconnected due to such birth practice is nothing short of abuse. Looking around in society, where birth and disconnect instead of bonding has been the same, it is no wonder that people my age continue feeling disconnected and fill the void with addictive behavior, have difficulties bonding in relationships, struggle being held and hugged. I was unable to connect to where I landed.

My life struggles taught me to rely on and trust my instinctive feelings towards my perspective of what the world should be and feel like. Therefore, I try to act out of love and compassion. Today, I look back very proudly, knowing that I acted in tune with my heart and soul, no matter what others thought and have done. In a way I have always made decisions against the overwhelming majority and boycotted the system.

My strength is to live an intuitive life in connection and with a deep understanding. It was evident that I had a talent to connect to babies, therefore I started to babysit and work as a supporting role for the mother as early as 11 years old. My Journey after school continued as an Au Pair in Maine/USA, completing 8 years as a nanny in Maine. I was blessed with the trust of many parents to care for their children. Working 70-80h/week never felt like work. During the time I cared for children with severe allergies, Autism, traumatic abuse and other special needs that needed my whole hearted way of being me, in order to help them to the best of my abilities.

Once married and pregnant I returned to my home country for motherhood of 3 wonderful children, all born at home. Pregnancy and birth have taught me a new understanding and love for my body which I battled with for many years. I am a plus size mother with big shoulders to lean on and a belly full of love. That still heals the ancestral wounds. Birth taught me even more love towards the magic of evolution and connection to the world in heaven, or between worlds and universe. I felt connected to the souls of my children before ever getting pregnant with them. How amazing can one moment be, sitting in nature daydreaming connecting to the child you love already, who is not even connected on a cellular level jet. I was blessed to feel this way many times, most often while in nature, close to water. Therefore the love for nature and herbs as home remedies and natural oils to support healing processes grew. My knowledge however is not based on education in its structured form. I have earned some certificates but most of my wisdom comes from real life experience. Out of my life experience I decided to become a birth doula in 2022. As a nanny and mother I have witnessed how important the state of mind during conception, pregnancy and birth itself is in life. I am now guiding parents to learn and trust that the answers and wisdom they need are already within them. If not, I share my wisdom and knowledge for you to choose if you want and can connect with it. I support parents from pregnancy (prior to pregnancy as well).

I love to facilitate Monarchenfeste for girls and red tent circles for girls. I also educate children 5th grade and up about pregnancy and birth as wholesome transitions of joy for life as the miracles they are.

My dream is to imprint positive birth culture to reshape the birthing culture that traumatized way to many arriving souls on the first day earth side. And although change is happening, we still have to many souls arriving this world to parents who have been systematically sabotaged and are unable stand in all their glory and strength when welcoming their baby into life.

I guide healing bath rituals after traumatic birth experiences or difficulties bonding and nursing after birth as well as guided meditation to connect to your child in your womb and find a safe place in meditation that you can excess any time during labor if it becomes turbulent and birth takes an unexpected turn of its own. I give meditation and guidance for mothers who feel disconnected to their child of any age. It is never too late to heal the disconnected wound due to the way birth happened.

My favorite impact and quality is to radiate love for birth and every contraction. To support mothers preparing for the birth of their dreams. Knowing birth can be everything possible, why not believe and learn to trust that we are capable to love birth in its magnificent magical power as a window between 2 universes. Plan for birth as if it was your wedding, it is after all one day that will reshape you into a whole new person. The experience and memories can have life long effects on you and your baby. The power is in you, you hold the key to unlock the strength you need to reach. You are already one step closer. You are loved. Blessings to you beautiful soul! Thank you for taking the time to read everything,

Love, Janine
