  • Extra time for your questions: We understand that every pregnancy is unique. That’s why we take extra time during each consultation to answer your questions and discuss your concerns. No question is too small or unimportant. (60min) ​
  • A holistic approach: We focus not only on your physical health but also on your emotional, social and mental well-being, for complete care.
  • Organisation of postnatal follow-up: understand the postnatal care with a midwife, open a file, answer your administrative and logistical questions. ​

MAMA BLESSING WITH DOULA VANESSA
MAMA BLESSING WITH DOULA VANESSA
Online

A MAMABLESSING is a love circle in honor of a pregnant woman to mark the rite of passage into motherhood. 

This is a celebration in honor of the woman who is about to give birth.

An intimate circle with her heart-tribe who gathers around her in the final weeks of pregnancy.

The intention is for her to be cherished—so she can feel nourished and carried by their strength, support, trust, love, and beautiful energy—through the birth and into her golden postpartum month.

A Mama Blessing celebration lasts about 3 hours and is lovingly co-created to honor the pregnant woman (the couple or the family), through a blend of wish-sharing, nurturing practices, symbolic offerings, rituals of connection and support, energy alignment, and inspiring creative activities… but above all, a beautiful oxytocin-filled vibe—the love hormone.

Practical Info

* Duration : About 3 hours

* Location: Your choice—at your home, at a participant’s home, at Wheel of Care, or in any place close to your heart. In Brussels or elsewhere (travel fees may apply).

Ideal Timing: Between the 35th and 38th week of pregnancy.
Schedule this moment in good time to guarantee my availability. Count on a preparatory exchange at least one month before the ceremony.

* Note : This beautiful celebration can also be shared in a mixed group with your partner or in the presence of your older children. Because with the arrival of a baby, two people are reborn as parents, and an entire family reinvents itself. I create and facilitate these spaces to reflect your unique desires and needs.

* Price : Custom pricing depending on your requests and expectations but also regarding some additional travel fees (mainly for ceremonies outside Brussels) . Generally between €340 and €460, including planning, facilitation time, decoration, materials for activities, and travel within Brussels.

What’s included :

* A preparation meeting to co-create your personalized celebration: 1 hour via video call or in person + follow-up and recap by email.

* Time spent designing and organizing your custom celebration.

* Email or WhatsApp exchanges with participants to co-create this meaningful moment together.

* Time for travel, setup, and takedown

* The 3-hour ceremony itself.

POSTNATAL DOULA support at home with Vanessa

Vanessa supports women, co-parents, and families on emotional, physical, and practical levels — both in the immediate period after birth. She provides practical assistance during your "golden month," in which you recover from your childbirth and strengthen the bond with your baby. She is like a little good fairy in your village — a type of support that is often lacking in our modern lifestyle.

BOOK AN APPOINTMENT WITH VANESSA

  • Are you expecting a baby and would you like to take some time – either alone or with your partner – to prepare for the postnatal period before the birth ? Then you can book a 2-hour postnatal DOULA session directly through this page at Wheel of Care.
  • Have you already given birth and would you like to be supported at home by Vanessa? If so, please fill in this form and Vanessa will contact you as soon as possible to arrange an appointment at your home.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING A POSTNATAL HOME VISIT:

 Vanessa comes to your home in Brussels for a 2-hour visit during which she can offer:

  • Presence, compassionate listening, and non-judgmental space for emotional expression;
  • Sharing and unpacking your birth story;
  • Physical care and regenerative treatments: massage, pelvic closing, herbal poultices, guided meditation… to care for you as you care for your baby;
  • Preparation of nourishing, comforting meals and snacks;
  • Practical & domestic help based on your needs;
  • Breastfeeding or bottle-feeding support;
  • Relief so you can take a shower, eat peacefully, sleep, get some fresh air, or simply breathe;
  • Sharing useful information on a variety of topics: postpartum recovery, baby's rhythm, breastfeeding, lochia, sleep & co-sleeping…
  • Whatever else you may need during this life transition.

And because having a doula by your side goes far beyond the first 3 postpartum months, Vanessa also offers long-term support through motherhood, when questions arise around: extended breastfeeding and weaning, returning to work, childcare, parenting, relationship challenges, chronic sleep deprivation, matrescence and identity shifts, body image, sexuality, feminism, menstruation and hormonal cycles, and the balance between womanhood and motherhood…

Never hesitate to reach out to Vanessa — even just once — if you feel the need for a safe, listening space where you can truly be held. Because YES, you deserve to call in your doula on this mothering journey, especially when the waves feel overwhelming or whenever needed on the journey of motherhood/parenthood/family life.

Give yourself the powerful support of having a doula for life.

  • A prenatal meeting of 2 hours is recommended in the third trimester to prepare for your postnatal period.
  • Vanessa offers packages of multiple postnatal home visits, each lasting 2 hours. The number and frequency are fully tailored to your needs. The sessions can be bundled in the first 3 months or spread over a longer period (up to 1 year or more).

REBOZO RITUAL
REBOZO RITUAL
270.00 €
Wheel of Care

Introduction

Give yourself a moment of deep rest, healing and renewal with this special ritual, inspired by the Mexican tradition of the rebozo. Perfect for those who want to mark an important transition in life, such as after a birth, a loss, or another milestone. This ritual is a loving gift to yourself, an opportunity to consciously pause, let go, and embrace new energy.

What is a rebozo?

The rebozo is a handwoven shawl with deep roots in Mexican culture. This shawl symbolises protection and support and is used to guide women through various stages of their lives – a true "second skin".

What is the purpose of this ritual?

This ritual helps you to pause and reflect on important life moments and to close them in a beautiful way. Whether it concerns the birth of a child, the beginning of a new chapter in your life, or processing loss, the ritual offers you a safe space to become aware, feel gratitude, and let go of what you no longer need.

How does the ritual proceed?

  1. Initial contact (free):
    We start with a non-binding conversation via phone or email. In this, we explain the ritual step by step, discuss your personal needs, and plan a moment when we can put you in the spotlight.
  2. The day itself:
    • Setting intention:
      With a warm cup of herbal tea, we start with an introduction. Then we do a short grounding exercise and discuss your intention for the ritual. What do you want to let go of? What do you want to make space for? This intention is the guiding principle for the session.
    • Relaxation Massage:
      A soothing body massage with natural oil helps you release tension and fully immerse yourself in the moment. Duration: 1 hour.
    • Heat experience:
      Choose between a healing flower bath or a steam sauna:
      • Flower Bath: A lovely warm bath with medicinal plants and flowers, accompanied by visualisations and sound healing.
      • Steam sauna: Guided meditations and sound healing in a warm, intimate setting.
    • Closure with the rebozo:
      With the rebozo, we close off energetic points in your body, from your head to your feet. This symbolic act provides a sense of completion and marks the transition to a new beginning.

Practical information:

  • The ritual is conducted in English, Spanish, and French  
  • Price: €270 (if the price is a barrier, do not hesitate to contact us)
  • Duration: Approximately 4 hours
  • Location: At your home or at Wheel of Care (Rue Terre Neuve 194)
  • When: This ritual is suitable for any life transition. Not during pregnancy and from 4 weeks after childbirth (6 weeks after a caesarean section).

Tip for young mothers:

To enjoy to the fullest, we recommend (if possible) having your baby looked after during the session. If that is not feasible, we are happy to brainstorm a solution with you.

Stand still, breathe, let go and make space for something new. This ritual is here to honour you.

A Rebozo ritual at home is also possible, but it is best to contact Teresa (0488 32 40 87) to make an appointment.
