It was so nice to meet familiar faces. Weini took me to my room and it all felt like I was in a dream. How could this place really exist? How could this be my room? I didn’t really have words, I was so blown away I couldn’t fully feel. There was a free standing bathtub, that is my dream of all dreams. Taking baths is my recharge, my me time and also where I feel most intuitive. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/d2de0a1a-f56e-42d9-92a4-07247d5b62a1/IMG_0547.JPG Blog - A love letter to myself - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/25d8ec5d-982e-47bd-889a-e00faa1c4822/IMG_0985.JPG Blog - A love letter to myself - Make it stand out Every morning we did yoga on the roof top as the sun rose over the Indian Ocean https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/da2dfb7d-5924-409f-b1c1-7bccdbf70cbc/IMG_0365.JPG Blog - A love letter to myself I’ve been following Weini for years and know that her and Lwam were hosting retreats called Desta retreats in Zanzibar. It’s been a bucketlist location and I’ve been looking at retreats and yoga teacher trainings for like 8-9 years by now. But in the past the Desta retreats have taken place in February and it hasn’t worked out for me because that’s usually when we go to South Africa. But this time the retreat was going to take place in November. I sent Lwam & Weini a bunch of questions the last one being “Is it worth it?” We laughed remembering this at the retreat. Less than 24 hours in I could answer that question: Yes, yes, yes! It was worth it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/8734969f-a4bf-49c7-b91c-3b8d8c45e98c/IMG_1039.JPG Blog - A love letter to myself - Make it stand out The view from our “front yard” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/82976a15-6543-4b5e-9abe-b890abf6f950/b544da94-8372-4019-8cc5-d058815f9d04.png Blog - A love letter to myself - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/cabc8ecd-9746-414e-9222-39f603b638e2/IMG_0582.JPG Blog - A love letter to myself Every retreat is a bit different but this time they added a cooking class with Mamas of Zanzibar. This is an activity I would never have chosen myself but it turned out to be my favorite activity. A room full of black women connecting over food, life, being women. There was so much laughter and joy in those hours we spent with the Mama’s. I am so happy I got to be a part of that as the retreat. And the food was amazing! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/952af6eb-2f5c-47fe-9601-84e2e099b1b3/IMG_0925.png Blog - A love letter to myself - Make it stand out This picture is taken at Shanti Café in Jambiani https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/leave-it-at-the-door monthly 0.5 2025-11-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/c602b46b-f0b4-49f3-894a-479e997161bb/IMG_9888.jpg Blog - Leave it at the door - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/1c22696a-b42c-4d17-9415-f188e60b8b35/IMG_9887.jpg Blog - Leave it at the door - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/taking-care-of-the-mother-of-my-children monthly 0.5 2025-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/8287fc8a-6177-4fe5-8be8-924bb8e0d15f/IMG_9177+2.JPG Blog - Taking care of the mother of my children - Make it stand out Spa day with the Sistas of KK. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/0ef31926-580d-4765-bb8b-d1e8f4b29831/e5e05fea-c0fd-4c35-9aff-d725f0f2efa5.JPG Blog - Taking care of the mother of my children - Make it stand out Portugal, my love. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/working-in-the-system monthly 0.5 2025-10-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/00a9902e-f28a-47df-b35e-bb9659cf288a/IMG_9747.JPG Blog - working in the system I worked in the postnatal ward for years before I became a Midwife, I heard countless of my colleagues say that they left birth because of things that are ultimately issues that have to do with the system. They couldn’t deal with shift after shift running from room to room, never being able to be fully present with anyone, or even having time to pee during an eight or ten hour shift. You can have a shift or two like that once in a while, but when your work situation is like that every shift you are constantly stressed out and it tears you down over time. It takes the joy out of work, you are constantly just trying to survive and keep everyone alive, let alone make sure the people you are caring for have a good experience. When there is no time to give there is no quality to give. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/hypnodoula-training monthly 0.5 2025-10-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/1fc1b6d1-8e57-4865-99f7-d3c9ff4d9cef/IMG_9811.JPG Blog - Hypnodoula training - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/4eac0bbf-e841-4f3a-aefa-35e7204336d8/IMG_9810.JPG Blog - Hypnodoula training - I arrived a little before 06 in Stockholm and walked around a very calm Stockholm C for a bit before I grabbed a hot chocolate and sat down reading my book.

I had a hard time understanding her so I tried to figure out how to cope. I read Dr. Shefali Tsabary's book "The Conscious Parent" and it opened my eyes to a different approach. Instead of making my kids be what I wanted them to be I let them be who they are and try my best to support that. If you haven't read the book I recommend reading it. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/the-best-preparation monthly 0.5 2025-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/54a5c8d7-bd13-46e1-88f2-528a1e480e8a/Afroswede-1110-416.jpg Blog - The best preparation - Jazz Hands Photographer Lola Akinmade https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/women-are-magical monthly 0.5 2025-08-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/da9eec60-5bd7-4ab5-a327-f98193580310/URVAL_241025_hypnobirthing0880.jpg Blog - Women are magical - Make it stand out Photographer Rebecca Gustavsson https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/is-it-lacking monthly 0.5 2025-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/a58db4a7-e4c5-463a-8bf7-e866166caafa/tracee.jpg Blog - Is it lacking? - Make it stand out Tracee Ellis Ross - the queen of singleness and how to live a full life https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/35e1ae7c-e112-4f75-ae2f-8ec05e98e765/_V7A8349c.jpg Blog - Is it lacking? I ask myself often “When I lay on my death bed, what will I be thinking of?” I definitely don’t want to be thinking about all the things I did to please others and how I didn’t live life fully. I want to be thinking of all the joy I have experienced, all the places I have been and all the love I have experienced. I want to think about how resilient I have been, how much I have laughed, how much I have danced. I want to think about how I tried new things, how I experienced new places and how I did things, even when it scared me. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/common-hospital-routines-after-baby-is-born monthly 0.5 2025-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/bbfcfd89-b1c4-4862-8451-cd7f1d2aa3ef/blogpost3+%281%29.png Blog - Common hospital routines after baby is born All newborns are offered a Vitamin K shot after birth, and most parents say yes to this. But in order to make an informed decision I suggest you read up on it beforehand. But to explain it in short vitamin K is given to babies as they don't have developed this yet, and vitamin K is a part in the body's ability to coagulate the blood, so this is why it's offered. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/87c6c3e5-dcaf-4529-845a-08619291f27f/blogpost3+%282%29.png Blog - Common hospital routines after baby is born The postpartum routines vary, some stay in the postnatal ward for a couple of days, others go home just hours after their baby is born.

But it wasn’t the surgery or the pain an experienced afterwards that was the worst. It was how I was treated by the hospital staff. I remember the good and the bad. And I just wish the people who were experiencing “just another day at work” would have not been a part of my son’s birth story. But through them I also learned how important it is to be respectful, to listen, to hold space and to adapt to the person you have in front of you. And I know, not all people that work in health care are suitable to work in healthcare. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/my-second-birth monthly 0.5 2025-03-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/7974edfb-bd18-4e57-9800-486971db8079/IMG_0002.JPG Blog - My second birth I first shared this birth story on my Instagram over a year ago.

Why did this stick out? Well because I sometimes feel I’m moving too slow through my healing process, and this reminded me that even the earth needs to rest and heal before it can bear fruit again, so do I. I need to be patient with myself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/4172ba96-a44e-4219-b5b2-fb842195021e/IMG_5275.JPG Blog - Wisdom of the Andes: Exploring Peruvian Andean Midwifery - Raquel also gave me a gift, Chumpi: it is a belt that protects the belly button (solar plexus chakra in yogic tradition) which represents intuition. During menstruation, pregnancy and postpartum we tend to be more open which is good for creativity and new ideas. If we have a work of service and in general it’s important that we have that area protected as we are also open for other people’s energy. In Quechua we call the belly button area “Qosqo ñawi”. In many traditional outfits around the world belts can be seen. In Latin America and Mexico they are called “fajas”. Once in the while the belt should be smudged or placed outside when there’s a full moon. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/book-review-daring-greatly monthly 0.5 2025-01-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/c0e2a4d1-45a4-465a-ba73-3da46d49ef5a/IMG_5198.JPG Blog - Book Review: Daring greatly This quote I have heard Brene Brown mention very many times.

This is communicated to us as the safest option from all areas of society: health care (especially paediatricians and OBGYNs), school, media, politicians, friends and family. Most Swedish people don’t know anyone who has given birth anywhere but in a hospital. Why would they? It’s the only government funded option in most places in Sweden. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/representations-matters monthly 0.5 2024-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/f61bdd78-310a-48a8-86ce-aafaa6586256/URVAL_241025_hypnobirthing0923.jpg Blog - Representations matters - When someone says they want a Black Doula, I get it. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/the-first-birth monthly 0.5 2024-11-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/4d441679-5d8f-4ddb-ba43-e6b3d819ddea/URVAL_241025_hypnobirthing0826.jpg Blog - the first birth - Make it stand out Photo by Rebecca Gustafsson https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/a-real-midwife monthly 0.5 2024-11-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/9c73ac4c-ec47-4f9a-88b3-ca3fc53983f9/221013_nandi_hypnobirth_0249.jpg Blog - A Real midwife - Make it stand out Pindard’s stethoscope - the tool of the Midwife https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/doula-or-midwife monthly 0.5 2024-11-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/1e54267d-4277-415a-bd5e-f52e5c976dfc/Turquoise+Watercolor+And+Gold+Daily+Affirmation+Instagram+Post+%281%29.png Blog - Doula or Midwife? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/bb-grda monthly 0.5 2024-11-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/bd2d49d6-d4da-4ad1-af62-6974042887c7/IMG_2360.JPG Blog - BB Gårda - Make it stand out One of the birth rooms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/cdabb933-b917-4528-9a56-221122052fa6/IMG_2361.JPG Blog - BB Gårda - Make it stand out One of the birth tubs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/d63e7110-9604-457d-b737-7bdff73afa0d/IMG_2358.JPG Blog - BB Gårda - Make it stand out The building where BB Gårda is located. https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/ringar-p-vattnet monthly 0.5 2024-10-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/504d8c2c-fdab-43de-b9de-e2abad7df2fe/Turquoise+Watercolor+And+Gold+Daily+Affirmation+Instagram+Post.png Blog - “Ringar på Vattnet” "When you change the way you perceive birth, the way you birth will change." - Marie Mongan, creator of Hypnobirthing https://www.nandizulu.com/blog/i-made-an-e-book monthly 0.5 2024-11-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e87c01079e37611bceb04c/7b500b43-baab-4798-80b7-074c7de87bd2/E-book+birth+preferences++%281%29.png Blog - How to write birth preferences, the e-book The questions have ranged from what to include and how long it should be or if the hospital staff actually takes time to read it.

Hi, I’m Nandi. Doula - Midwife My interest in pregnancy and birth began during my first pregnancy in 2005 when I binge read pregnancy books. And the dream of becoming a midwife was born. During my studies to become a nurse I decided I wanted to become a doula until I could fulfill my midwifery dreams. So in 2009 I did my doula training which I loved. To be a part of a family welcoming a new family member is something very special. Since then I have had a total of three children with three very different birth experiences. As I love learning new things I've added some skills over the years. I'm trained in Aktiv Baby, which is a technique I used myself during my third pregnancy. And I have learned acupressure in the ear as well as on points of the body. After graduating from midwifery school in 2021 I still felt something was missing in my tool kit, so that same year I became a Hypnobirthing educator (the Mongan Method). Hypnobirthing is an approach that I love and can really relate to, as I know how beneficial breath and relaxation is during pregnancy and birth. Teaching Hypnobirthing lets me be a part of a family’s journey in to parenthood through educating and empowering them in a holistic way. In 2022 I was fortunate to attend a workshop with partera Angelina Martinez Miranda (traditional midwife from Mexico) who shared her wealth of knowledge with us including how to use a Rebozo during pregnancy and birth, as well as how rituals can be incorporated during this time. I have also completed Rachel Reed's online course Reclaiming Child Birth as a Rite of Passage. This course has solidified what is important to me when it comes to supporting people through pregnancy and birth. I wish this course was mandatory for all birth workers as it contains so much valuable knowledge. At the end of 2022 I joined the home birth midwife team Föda i Skåne and started attending home births. This has been a long time dream of mine, and it expands my knowledge as a midwife. As I now attend home births I generally say no to doula clients, but I will make exceptions in some cases if there is space in my schedule to do so. I'm fluent in Swedish, English and German and can offer services in these three languages. Based in Malmö, Sweden and offer services in Malmö as well as online.
