Birth

There was never more beginning than now.

Walt Whitman

The midwives trust in the knowledge that is stored deep in the body of every woman and encourage their ability to shape the birth process actively and independently. Childbirth is a natural process that normally requires neither medical intervention nor the use of medication.

The midwives attach great importance to being able to offer individual and comprehensive care. During the entire birth, the midwife on duty is at the side of the woman giving birth and her partner. In the advanced stage of birth, a second midwife is present.

The baby is born in a safe and secure environment. Directly after birth, the midwives give the family plenty of time to let the bonding run undisturbed. In this way, a first acquaintance takes place in peace and a successful start to breastfeeding is supported.

All midwives at the Delphys Birth Centre have many years of professional experience. They are trained in conventional and alternative medicine and can take appropriate measures if required.

Thanks to its many years of cooperation, the Delphys Birth Centre is well networked with the surrounding hospitals.

In the event of a transfer before, during or after the birth, the Delphys Birth Centre works with the following clinics.

  • Stadtspital Zürich Triemli, Frauenklinik  
  • Universitätsspital Zürich, Klinik für Gynäkologie und Neonatologie  
  • Spital Limmattal, Schlieren  
  • See-Spital, Horgen  
  • Other clinics by arrangement
