About us

Bolle Buik is a midwifery practice with over 25 years of experience in obstetrics home care. We consider women to be autonomous individuals and we encourage them to trust in their own strength and intuition. Together with pregnant women and their partners, our midwifes will do everything to make sure the pregnancy progresses as normal as possible.

Bolle Buik represents professional personal care in every sense. The midwife monitors the natural process of the pregnancy, birth and postnatal period from a certain philosophy:
“natural if possible, technical if required”. The most important thing for us is that you are able to look back at your pregnancy, birth and postnatal period with a positive feeling. This
means that we are actually there for you. It is no problem if you want to schedule an extra consultation or give us a call because you’re worried. We want to hear your wishes and
ideas so that we can give you the best care and support.. 

we have also achieved the 'good practice logo'.
Which is the official quality logo received from the Flemish Professional Association of Midwives.

 

Our midwifes

Patty Docx

Midwife
My name is Patty Dockx (region Rotselaar). At the age of 5, I told everyone I was going to be a midwife! As Bolle Buik midwife, I give support during pregnancy, labour, birth and postnatal care. In 2016 , I followed a training as Hypnobirthing® practicioner and since then I teach the Hypnobirthing® pregnancy course.
The birthingcenter Birth&Breakfast is part of my house. During their stay, all the B&B- babies and parents are being pampered by me. In my spare time, all my attention and love goes to my husband Louis, my four sons, their partners and my grandchildren. To be aware of the superpower of Women, the miracle of birth and being able to share in the joy of brand-new parents, makes this profession to the most beautiful of the world.

Johanne Boon

Midwife
I'm Johanne. I'm not the first midwife in my family, not even the second one, so I didn't expect to find the passion for the job myself, because three times in the same family, that seems impossible. I started to make plans: what after my bachelor's degree maybe another postgraduate degree? But, the jitters crept in anyway and before I knew it I was in deep midwifery conversations with my mother and sister, much to the annoyance of the men in the family. I was completely captivated by the beauty, uniqueness and the challenges of being a midwife and that has not let me go. Since graduating, I've come a long way, including distant missions with Doctors Without Borders, and intimate, beautiful births closer to home. I think the best thing about being a midwife is that we get the chance to help (new) parents to find their own way. To support them with information, with a shoulder, with a smile or with a silent tear.

Tinneke Wittockx

Midwife
Hi! My name is Tinneke (hometown Aarschot) and I am a proud midwife and babywearing consultant. From the beginning of my studies I felt that my passion lay in the helping mothers and families at home. From the positive pregnancy test to the first steps of your little one, guiding a family is really what makes me happy. The fact that I can also accompany your little one into the world makes the story complete. Besides being a midwife, I like hiking, (rock) climbing and painting.

Dana Geeraerts

midwife
Hello, I'm Dana (hometown Baal) and I can proudly call myself a midwife for 8 years already. As a child I knew
very quickly that I wanted to be a midwife. Until now I have always worked in home care, partly as a
home nurse and partly as a midwife pre- and postnatal care. Over these 7 years I was allowed to be
pregnant 3 times myself and I experienced 3 beautiful, calm and loving home births. A place in the
Bolle Buik team is therefore a dream come true. Assisting young parents during pregnancy, labour,
childbirth and afterwards. ensuring that they also have a beautiful memory of a (home) birth with the
Bolle Buik midwives.
Besides taking care of all those young parents and babies together with my husband Jan, I take care of
our three treasures: Tea, Fen and War. So that they can grow up carefree in a warm family.
