Ohana is the practice of Marie, a doula and haptonome based in Mons, Belgium, offering personal support to individuals and families through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. Her approach combines emotional preparation, attentive listening, and haptonomy to help parents feel informed, connected, and supported as they welcome their baby. Services are tailored to each family’s story, needs, and questions, with appointments available at her professional, welcoming setting and at home on request.

Support includes preconception guidance, affective preparation for birth, assistance during labour, and guidance when a baby is in a breech position. Ohana also offers postnatal accompaniment and therapeutic swaddled baths for babies aged up to six weeks, creating a gentle, attentive space for parents and infants. Prenatal and postnatal massage support relaxation and wellbeing through the physical changes of maternity. Marie also provides compassionate support following perinatal loss, pregnancy termination, or difficulties related to fertility, helping clients find a safe space to express their feelings and consider difficult decisions.
