First things first, I'm grateful for being a mom to Coco, Louie and Max. In addition, I graduated as a Master in Midwifery at the Catholic University of Leuven (2009). I also obtained my diploma as certified Trainer Hormone Factor in Utrecht (2020). After 12 years of clinical midwifery experience at the University Hospital of Leuven's maternity ward, I've chosen to continue building my dreams as a dedicated practitioner, and established Huis van Meraki. Huis van Meraki offers a healthy and strong foundation for every woman and her family. A foundation of trust, happiness and connection.
Furthermore, I work as a part-time academician at the UCLL University of Applied Sciences in Leuven under the midwifery program, where I can pass on my passion for this profession to younger generations.

About us
Goedele Deseyn
At the moment when I became a mother of our third child Adriaan, I was blessed to experience the wise, warm and loving care of the midwives. At that time, I was already training as a midwife in Brussels, and this experience gave me the strength and inspiration to become a home care midwife myself.
For me, it is important to take the time to get to know you, and to provide dedicated care to you and your family, scientifically-based, and with great respect for everyone's individuality. Getting pregnant, giving birth ... these are truly important moments in every woman's life, and it also contain many opportunities. Especially opportunities to work on your own health and thus lay a healthy foundation for your family, to connect with yourself, your partner and your child. I will be happy to help you experiencing this process in a relaxed, conscious and natural manner.

I became a midwife in 2007, and in 2010 I obtained a Master's degree in sexology at the Catholic University of Leuven. I have been working in the maternity ward of the University Hospital in Leuven ever since. In 2012, I became a proud mom myself. At this time, I was able to experience in and around myself that many fresh parents have it difficult and are looking for a new balance in life. In 2018, after the birth of our third child, I have chosen to study to become a postpartum consultant. In due course, I have been deepening myself in the topic of mental health.
I assist parents through active conversations during this vulnerable period of young parenthood. Together, we take small steps until you come closer to yourself, and closer to your personal goals, more peace and balance in your life. Taking good care of yourself is also taking good care of your baby.
