Who am I?
Hello. I am Linda, a wife, mother, and an expat.
I’m a passionate information-digger and I’m keen to share what I know.
I come from Latvia, but I have lived in Italy, Sweden, and now for nearly 10 years Belgium is my home. My husband comes from India. So we have enjoyed the whole experience of what it means to have a baby in Antwerp as an expat.
My background is a mixed bag of art, graphic design, academic research, and data analytics. My professional qualifications include illustrator, primary school and crafts teacher, and data analyst. I also have a PhD in social sciences.
Pregnancy and childbirth are life-changing events that sometimes alter the life trajectory by 180 degrees. Something like that happened to me. After I found out I was pregnant, gradually the only thing that remained interesting was information about pregnancy, motherhood, and childcare. I spent more and more time on this until at some point I realised I had accumulated a rather broad knowledge base.
In addition, the birth of my baby was a rollercoaster, but I was also humbled by all the love and care I received from my husband, my family, and the healthcare professionals. I want to give something back.
These consultations are my way
of giving back
The core philosophy behind my services is to empower women by providing the knowledge and options they need to create their ideal pregnancy and childbirth experience. I also place a strong emphasis on celebrating the natural journey of pregnancy, birth, and early childcare.
