Hendrike Dannenberg – Your midwife in Berlin & surrounding area
Mindful support in Steglitz, Zehlendorf, Teltow and Kleinmachnow
Congratulations on your pregnancy! My name is Hendrike Dannenberg, and I support you with sound expertise and personal commitment throughout this exciting time: from the first weeks of pregnancy through the intensive postnatal period to your baby's first steps.
As a mother of three, I know the challenges and the deep joy of this stage of life from my own experience. My personal aim is to support you mindfully, respectfully and responsibly and to lastingly strengthen your confidence for the birth and your future role as a parent.
Holistic range of care
I offer you comprehensive, individual midwifery care, the cost of which is largely covered by your health insurance.

We shape your pregnancy in a self-determined way. You are free to have your antenatal care according to the maternity guidelines entirely with me or alternating with your gynaecologist.
- Specialised in: relieving pregnancy complaints through acupuncture, naturopathy and aromatherapy.
- Courses for strength: prenatal yoga for birth preparation and to gain strength and calm.

- Includes: check-ups for mother and child, breastfeeding support, help with complications and introducing solid foods.
3. Special courses & additional services
To complement your care I offer specialised knowledge:
