Hi, I am Neram…

… a doula, birthworker or birthkeeper ?

Well, all these are titles, in some cases even marketing names.

I don’t really care about the label because at the end it comes down to who I am as well as why and how I do what I do.

I accompany you with love, passion and my deepest trust in each and every single part of you. I welcome all your facets. I see your light and your shadow. I embrace your joy and your pain. And everything that’s between the lines, too.

Full spectrum, before, during and after birth. Authentic, trauma informed and culturally sensitive companionship for the womb and what’s beyond!

Let's connect

Born to a German mother and a Chadish father, I lived for a while in Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso before settling for the rest of my childhood and youth in the North of Germany.

My life has always been about interculturality, about getting an understanding of all those layers that make our life experiences so unique. I guess that’s also one of the reasons why I have lived for the past 20 years in 5 different countries, am speaking 4 languages and am raising 4 curly and not so curly kiddos in Bogotá in Colombia.

I don’t see things in a very black and white way. I look at the nuances, case by case, story by story. And this counts for how I raise my kids, my work and my overall understanding of medicine and healing, too.

What means full spectrum ?

Well, it’s quite simple: everything is connected!

We can’t talk about pregnancy, birth and postpartum and leave out overall womb & body health, our emotions, our spirit, life and death.

And luckily life brought me to Central and South America, where I had the chance to learn from amazing mentors and become a partera, a midwife.

I’ve been diving into conception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum companionship but I also learned how to really look at one’s story, care for one’s womb and breast health, analyze and accompany fibroids, the absence of menstrual bleeding, having to let go of a loved one, to name a few.

And that’s why I absolutely love what I am doing. With every woman, every person and every family I had the chance to walk with, I have been discovering new fields, learning more and more, bringing both knowledge and medicine into my life and work. And it made me see again, that no matter what we are talking about, everything is connected.

We are not one disfragmented body. We are a whole. And your whole self is welcome here!

Meet my mentors

Neram,
please tell me more!

I hold a degree in international communications. I just love how humans, and especially those coming from different cultural backgrounds, interact and communicate with each other.

I have given birth at the hospital, at home accompanied by midwives and also freely, without medical assistance. Each birth has been completely unique and powerful.

I am a multi-passionate scanner brain being. If something catches my interest I tend to dive deep in, learn as much as I can, especially when things are interconnected.

I rather put coffee on my skin than drinking it. 100% tea lover here.

I love all things herbal but my favorite plants are by far rose and rosemary. And nettle. And lady’s mantle. And chamomile. And ginger. Ah fuck it, I just love medicinal plants!

Back in school I wanted to work in forensic medicine as I preferred to work with the dead. Then I got the call towards midwifery and now my path has brought me to accompanying both life and death.

I love dresses, especially the colorful ones. And books. They’re beautiful too.

I believe that we all have and need feminine and masculine energy in us. None is better, none is worse. What we need is union and balance.

I love laying in bed while it’s raining outside. It’s one of my favorite sensations.

I am a recovering perfectionist. Instead of doing things perfectly, I am learning to give less and less fucks. Love it !

I am an Earth bound virgo with some Aries and Sagittarius fire. It’s all about the mix!

Want to meet me 1:1 ?

The meaning of “Neram”

Neram means “my destiny” in N’gambaye, my father’s language from Chad.

And it’s been my destiny to search for my own roots and connections, travel and enter into different countries and cultures while observing customs, local ways of living and communicating.

For the past 20 years, I’ve been living abroad in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Panama and Colombia. Besides German, I speak French, English, Spanish and a bit of Dutch and have also embraced the fact that sometimes communication can happen without speaking the same language at all.

I have accompanied women and couples from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds in all those languages and absolutely love adapting to the specific needs of those who seek my companionship.
