Intake interview

Between the 34th and the 37th week, one of our employees will hold an intake interview. This will happen either by telephone or at your home (depending on which one is reimbursed by the insurance company).
During this interview, we will discuss your wishes, the number of care hours and we will give you information on how to prepare yourself as well as possible for the labour, the maternity period and possible breastfeeding.

Maternity care

Which maternity care suits you?

Kraamzorg Wereld Wonder offers different kinds of maternity care, based on the national needs protocol.
This sets out the amount of hours you are entitled to. Of course, this also depends on your insurance company.

  • Basic care: 49 hours over 8 days, an average of 6 1/2 hours a day
  • More care: 49 hours over 8 days with extra indicated hours
  • Minimum care: 24 hours, an average of 3 hours a day
  • Delayed maternity care
  • Evening maternity care

Before and at the beginning of the maternity period, the maternity nurse will make clear arrangements with the family about the care of mother and baby, housekeeping, visits, etc. These arrangements will be stated in the maternity care guide. On the fourth day after the birth we will see how you are doing and evaluate with the family. If necessary, we can adjust the arrangements.

1. Basic care: 49 hours over 8 days, an average of 6 hours a day:

The maternity nurse works between 8.00 am and 6.00 pm. We will discuss how many hours she will be with your family beforehand. The maternity nurse will be much occupied with caring for and checking mother and baby. Especially the feeding of the baby requires a lot of guidance and the maternity nurse will pay extra attention to this. Other tasks of the maternity nurse:

  • observing, identifying and reporting
  • instruction and information
  • basic household chores

2. More care: 49 hours over 8 days with extra indicated hours:

If there is an unusual situation with mother or baby or around you, extra hours of maternity care may be needed. The maternity nurse and the midwife will decide whether this is necessary. They will then give a so-called 'indication for more care’. 

3. Minimum care: 24 hours, an average of 3 hours a day: 

In certain situations, less care than the “basic care” is provided. This is because of:

  • The mother's choice (and that of her partner)
  • Or one of the restricting factors apply:
    Restricting factors are, for example, if the mother has a lot of help from a non-professional carer (mantelzorg) who takes care of household chores, or if the mother is hospitalized.

The care for mother and baby is the key point of minimum care. The maternity nurse will, by agreement, do some light household chores such as cleaning the bathroom and maintaining the delivery room.

4. Delayed maternity care:

This maternity care is meant for families who just had a baby and who need maternity care for more than 10 days due to circumstances. The official maternity period will then have come to an end. The hours will be determined in consultation with the insurance company, the maternity nurse and the family. It is possible to buy more care hours than the hours that are reimbursed by the insurance company: here the rates apply that have been fixed at that moment (Dutch Healthcare Authority or NZA rates).

5. Evening maternity care:

You can receive this care if you come home late in the afternoon after giving birth in a hospital. The maternity nurse will discuss with the family the hours she will be present. The maternity nurse takes care of mother and baby and gives instructions for the night. In consultation with the planning department, evening maternity care will be provided
