Hi!
My name is Kristina and I’m a Doula but firstly I’m a wife to a special man & mother of 2 girls (born 2017 & 2019). My own births and motherhood journey has brought me to where I’m now: and I’m there for you. As a birth doula, childbirth preparation helper, WATSU (water therapy) & sound therapy practitioner.
I'm here to create your safe birth Oase
I’ve been feeling like changing my corporate career path drastically just after giving birth to our first daughter Sara. The seed has been planted during my very first WATSU session, actually. There were no more doubts when our second daughter Bona was born – her birth was truly a transforming and empowering event. After that I feel a big urge to share this and empower other women to feel trusted, strong and supported in their birth journey.
Following my heart’s lead was such a right decision: I have never felt so grounded, happy and inspired at the same time. It’s such a reward: being a trusted guide and ally during this special time in people’s lives. As evidence & intuition driven partner I’m helping to create your even safer birth OASE. And I really know how important that can be, either at home, or especially if you are not in a familiar place (hospital) or even, to begin with, abroad and far away from your beloved ones. I’m an expat for a 3rd time – you wouldn’t guess how much I understand the importance of support.
Things that I personally love and recommend
In my time guiding the incredible journey to parenthood, I've encountered some truly remarkable resources. Here are a few of them—each chosen for its ability to support, comfort, and empower you through this transformative time.

Birth time: the documentary
Discover 'The Birth Reckoning,' a documentary sparked by personal birth experiences. Its creators embarked on a quest to understand the rise in traumatic birth experiences. This mission echoes my own: to empower women for a positive birth journey. The film explores critical questions about the quality of birth services, the impact of protocol-driven care versus mother-centric care, and defines true safety and respect during labor.

This is me with Michel Odent, a true legend in the field of childbirth. Having devoted his career to advancing the understanding of birthing processes, Michael's influence has been profound. His emphasis on creating supportive, low-intervention environments during labor has shaped the way many view childbirth, making him a respected figure among those advocating for holistic and woman-centered birthing experiences. One cannot deny the profound and fundamental feeling he shares with all of his essence – TRUST. Trust in humanity, birthing mother, birth.
P. S. Michel and my firstborn are sharing the same birthday. I’m not saying this says anything but it’s talkative to me in my own way and connects two big personal milestones.
