✨ Meet Melanie: Your Guide Through Pregnancy & Beyond
Melanie is a warm, intuitive Holistic Reiki Therapist, doula, and secure attachment specialist who empowers new and expectant parents with compassionate, science-based support. As half Portuguese and half Dutch, she brings a nurturing multicultural perspective to her work at Mama BabyFee.
From the transformative moment her son Oliver was born, Melanie sensed a powerful calling: to help parents create a nurturing “bubble” grounded in connection and intuition. She now channels that purpose into guiding families to foster secure attachment, foundational to better sleep, emotional resilience, and lifelong well‑being.
Why Melanie is a Perfect Fit
- Deep knowledge in early childhood development—she sheds light on how the first seven years shape sleep, self‑confidence, resilience, and behavior
- Holistic and customizable care—integrating doula wisdom, trauma‑aware attachment theory, newborn sleep techniques, and Reiki energy healing
- Empowering intuition—she helps parents trust their innate instincts, fostering strength and inner wisdom
- Evidence‑based yet heartfelt—each guidance process blends scientific insight with her own journey and continual learning
🗣️ A Parent’s Perspective
"What made these sessions truly special was Mel's calm and open presence. She created a space where everything was welcome, without judgement. I would recommend a few sessions with her to any new mother navigating the first few months postpartum."
"Your 1:1 sessions have filled me with a very positive feeling. When I started the sessions I didn't know what to expect, but immediately after the first conversation I was relaxed by your soft voice, confidence and skill. You are very knowledgeable, professional and empathetic and I would recommend it to everyone."
"I contacted Melanie after birth. I noticed that I couldn't process some things and had to deal with a very restless baby. That was sometimes more of a struggle than a coordinated dance. Her to-the-point advice, often with multiple options, were clear responses to my questions. So nice that I could reach out to someone like you when I couldn't see it anymore which was making me so insecure. After the session I felt so relieved and I felt it had a huge impact on Aelin as well. The distance treatment felt just magical!" -Marilene
