Gift Cards

Give the gift that truly matters — support for the mother, not just the baby

The best gift for a new baby is a mother who is genuinely held.

Most new babies in Amsterdam already have more onesies than they will ever wear.

What they do not have enough of — what almost no new mother has enough of — is someone truly tending to her. Someone to hold the baby while she sleeps. Someone to bring Ayurvedic warmth to her womb. Someone to stay beside her through the intensity of labor. Someone to honour her for what she has just moved through.

That is what these gift cards offer.

A gift card from Ayu Doula Amsterdam is a gift for the mother. Meaningful, personal and genuinely useful — whether given at a kraambezoek, a baby shower, a BlessingAway or simply because you love someone and want them to feel held.

When is a gift card the right gift?

A gift card from Ayu Doula Amsterdam is right for almost any occasion surrounding pregnancy and new motherhood:

Kraambezoek — the maternity visit The traditional Dutch visit to meet the new baby. Instead of another set of baby clothes, give something for the mother — the person who needs the most support and receives the least.

Baby shower or Blessing Away Before the birth — a gift toward doula support or postpartum care gives a pregnant woman something genuinely useful to look forward to as she prepares for birth and postpartum.

Kraamfeest The Dutch post-birth celebration. A gift card for the Rebozo Closing Ritual is a particularly beautiful choice — honouring the woman in the weeks after birth.

A birthday, Mother's Day or any moment Gift cards are not only for new mothers. The Wisdom Gift — an Ayurvedic Clinical Consultation — is meaningful for any woman navigating a health transition. The Rebozo Closing Ritual can mark any significant life threshold.

For a friend navigating something difficult A postpartum doula session or Ayurvedic visit as an act of love and solidarity — because sometimes the most important thing is knowing that someone sees you and wants to help.
