Munich, being such an intercultural city, welcomes many babies to parents from other countries. Even though Munich is a world city, locals say “München ist ein Dorf” or Munich is a village, because of its small and familiar feel. Yet still….international parents scattered around the city sometimes struggle to connect and need to find their village within the village. After all, it takes a village to raise a child!
The Womb Room is the hub for this village. It gives expecting and new parents a space to build community as they learn and grow together.
The Womb Room is a place and space, both virtually and in real life, for expecting and new parents to find support and to connect with each other, all in the English language.
Darby (she/her) is a doula, certified both internationally and in Germany. She moved from Reno, Nevada to Munich in 2005 and has been serving the English-speaking community as a doula since 2016. Darby knows first-hand what it is like to be a foreigner trying to navigate the German birthcare system. Inspired by her own three births - an empowering birth in the clinic, a stillbirth, and an emergency cesarean - Darby supports parents through various birth experiences while embracing the joy and the hardships that find balance in birth. Darby uses her experience and wisdom in her classes to teach and inspire parents to tap into their own inner knowing and to trust their innate ability to birth.
