Hello! My name is Prisca.

I love flowers and autumn, I'm adventurous, a passionate cook and baker, a cat mom and since 2020 I am a midwife BSc. I started working in obstetrics in 2013. I have worked in neanotology, maternity and labor ward in a gynecological-obstetric practice and as vocational trainer. Today I am supporting families as a self-employed midwife with great warmth, expertise and patience during this special time.

​

The birth of a child is a miracle. Not only is the baby born, but also the parents. This 180°-turn in life is fascinating and challenging at the same time. My goal is to support you holistically, individually and to respond to your wishes and needs. It makes me truly happy to not only see the baby grow, but also you in your role as parents.

That's what my customers say

We couldn’t have wished for a better midwife than Prisca. The care we received was exceptional. She supported us wonderfully during this intense time with great empathy, modern approaches, and a noticeable passion for her profession. She brings a sense of calm and security, approaches every situation without judgment, and caters individually to the needs of both the parents and the baby. Her warm manner often feels like the support of a good friend, combined with sound professional expertise and practical tips. I also particularly appreciated how easy she was to reach - even via WhatsApp for urgent questions. Thank you for everything Prisca!
