Midwife search in Essen — frequently asked questions

How do I find a midwife in Essen?

There are two ways to find a midwife in Essen: either you contact every midwife from the public midwife listings yourself, early and systematically — often with repeated follow-ups. Or you hand the search over to us: we contact the midwives near you personally on your behalf, and you see the replies live in your dashboard.

How many midwives are there in Essen?

The public midwife listings currently show 617 midwives within 25 km of the centre of Essen, 147 of them within 10 km (as of 11.07.2026). Important: listed doesn't mean available — no directory shows free capacity. That's why, above all, it's the systematic and personal approach to enquiries that counts.

How many births are there in Essen?

Within 25 km of the centre of Essen, official data shows around 30.498 births per year (as of 2024) — which means around 2.542 women effectively start a new midwife search here every month, among the same 617 listed midwives. The region's birth trend since 2020 stands at -10,1 % (nationwide −12.4 %). Fewer births don't mean more available midwives, though: in many places, supply is shrinking faster than demand.

When should I start looking for a midwife in Essen?

As early as possible — ideally right after a positive pregnancy test. Midwives usually plan their care many weeks ahead; the earlier you enquire, the better your chances. It's still worth searching later, too: cancellations and changed plans keep freeing up places.

What does a midwife cost in Essen?

For women with statutory health insurance, midwife care is generally free of charge in Essen too: antenatal care, birth support and postnatal care are covered by the statutory health insurance fund. The midwife bills the fund directly. Only the search itself costs money, if you hand it over to a service like ours — the care itself remains a covered benefit.
