Why an on-call fee?
The on-call fee (Pikettgeld) means I am available 24/7 from week 35 until birth.
- I keep my schedule free and can join you as soon as labour starts.
- It gives you peace of mind knowing a familiar midwife will be there, any time of day or night.
- You can prepare calmly, without worrying who will support you at birth.
This fee reflects my commitment to providing continuous, personalised care.
