In the Netherlands, “kraamverzorgenden” come by the house of new parents every day for ~the first week to show you the ropes, and just in general to help with chores and/or entertaining brothers and/or sisters.
What does “kraamverzorgenden” mean? In my country that’s always a woman and is called “grandma” but in a diminutive or loving style or a pet name for grandma. Basically “gammy” or something to that effect.

Same in Slovenia. I assume it’s the same in all of EU.
Not in Germany or Austria. Never heard of it.
Guess it depends on the Hebamme - there’s definitely the possibility to get consultations of this kind before and after birth.
People who come by everyday for a week to help out and give advice? For free? If you gave birth at a normal hospital?Edit: i answered to the wrong thread, my bad.
OUR bad!
I’ll forgive you. This time.
That sounds like something that would go to the house of new parents and steel their kid

It roughly means “someone who takes care [of the new family] in a newborn situation”.
