Who is Elvira Broersma?
Let me introduce myself ...
My name is Elvira Broersma (1990). I am a mother, doula, holistic lifestyle coach, and a pre-& postnatal massage and cranio sacral therapist. People describe me as a loyal, warm, down-to-earth and a spiritual woman with a mission. Born and raised in Friesland, having traveled the world and got to know myself and the world a little better along the way, changed course in 2018, left the corporate world and followed my heart. Competed many studies and courses since, related to holistic lifestyle coaching, anything around birth and different modalities of bodywork. And I have been living in Bussum since 2025 with my young family (after having lived in Amsterdam for 10 years).
I love the magic of (new) life, the human body, personal development, creating things, outdoor swimming, traveling and other cultures, and spirituality. I do my best to help as many people as possible become more conscious, inspiring and motivating you to stand in your power, particularly around pre-conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and the period after. In short, the first 1000 days. So you can enjoy (new) life in greater connection with yourself and your surroundings. The best possible start and continuation for you and your family.
โ
Due to my experience as a birth & postpartum doula, as a practitioner and as a mother, I know the various challenges that can arise during this vulnerable period. Even when things in life don't go as expected, such as a miscarriage, stillbirth or an abortion, I draw on both professional expertise and personal experience to support people through processing it.
โโ
My sessions are always with a soft touch and a holistic approach. I combine medical science, a bit of Ayurveda/Traditional Chinese Medicine and naturopathy (cranio sacral therapy, various massage techniques, acupressure, moxa therapy) in my treatments.
Mentally
Thoughts, beliefs, blocks, fears and worries.
How do you find peace and pleasure in a life full of planning, rules and expectations?
How to deal with (labour) pain?
Physical
Diet, exercise and relaxation have a major influence on our physical well-being.
How do you take care of your body? Especially during pregnancy and beyond?
Emotional
Relationships with others, your feelings, emotions , trust and empathy.
Which emotions do you feel and can they always be there? How to help your (unborn) child deal with emotions?
Energy
Movement is energy.
Follow your intuition; your inner compass,
discovering motivations, connection and authenticity.
Do you dare to trust yourself 100%?
Purpose
A meaningful life.
Having a contribution. Knowing what you want and don't want.
What are your most important values and do you live by them? What do you want to pass on to next generations?
Dear Elvira,
I could not have had a better doula by my side during birth. You did a tremendous job helping me bring Benjamin into this world and I cannot thank you enough for listening to all my needs, the support and the encouragement you have given me.
I know it was a lot of work and I appreciate your dedication and commitment to guide me all the way, even after I held Benjamin in my arms.

You did a fantastic job, and I wish you all the best on your doula journey!
Thank you so much!!

Hi Elvira,
โ
Thank you very much for all the helps during this beautiful journey. I can't imagine if I could have done the same without your help and support. Looking back on the delivery, it is your calm and firm voice that guided me through the hardest moments. Your support is definitely professional. You helped me realizing my plan to give birth naturally with encouragement and respect. Even though the last several hours were intens, I would describe the delivery beautiful, smooth, painful but no need to be scared.
โ
We would definitely recommend you to our surroundings.

After having my baby, I reached out to Elvira to help me get a bit of me-time, to relax and try to slowly recover from giving birth. I had a belly binding and maternity massage, it was such a calming experience!
Elvira came to my place, which was super convenient in the first postpartum weeks, and we were also making breaks when it was necessary so I could feed my baby.
I am really glad I did this for myself, that felt necessary. Elvira was very attentive, professional and thoughtful and made me feel entirely comfortable.
