Iris Kraamzorg is a kraamzorg organisation in Groningen. The address is Taco Mesdagstraat 12A, 9718 KL Groningen. Province of Groningen.
What does a kraamzorg organisation actually do? Kraamzorg is postnatal care in your own home during the first days after birth, and it is close to unique to the Netherlands. A trained maternity nurse (kraamverzorgende) checks you and your baby, helps with feeding, watches for complications and takes on part of the household. It is not a luxury service: in that first week the kraamverzorgende is very often the first person to notice that something is wrong — with you or with your baby — and the one who calls in the midwife. If you have moved here from a country without this system, it is worth knowing it is standard, insured, and yours by right.
Mothers usually come to this kind of care for things like having no family or support network nearby, the first days at home with a newborn and care for older children in the house. You normally register around week 12 to 16 of pregnancy. At about week 30 there is an intake, at home or by phone, where your number of hours is set using the national indication protocol. After the birth the maternity nurse comes daily, spread across eight to ten days.

We do not fill those gaps with an assumption. Ask the practice, or check registrations yourself — the BIG register and the Kwaliteitsregister Paramedici are free and public.

Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

Not stated in the source — this is what we can say about it in general.
What are the opening hours?
According to the source: Mon–Fri 08:00–18:00, Sat–Sun closed. Those are the hours the practice is open, not necessarily when an appointment is free — the diary may be full further ahead. Hours also change during Dutch school holidays. Call or check the website for the current situation.
What does it cost, and is it covered by insurance?
Kraamzorg is in the basic insurance. You are entitled to a minimum of 24 and a maximum of 80 hours, spread over eight to ten days. Exactly how many hours you receive is determined using the Landelijk Indicatieprotocol Kraamzorg and depends on your situation — a caesarean, breastfeeding that is slow to establish, or older children at home all count towards it. You pay a statutory personal contribution of €5.70 per hour in 2026. Kraamzorg does not come out of your own risk (eigen risico). Some supplementary policies reimburse that personal contribution in full or in part. What this particular practice charges for a consultation, and whether it has a contract with your specific health insurer, is not in our source. Ask for the fee before you book.

Iris heeft ons op een ontzettende bevlogen, fijne en gezellige manier bijgestaan in de kraamweek van onze zoon. Ze heeft heel veel kennis om ouders op weg te helpen, bijvoorbeeld over borstvoeding, slapen, baden en nog veel meer. We kregen duidelijke adviezen, maar ook zeker de ruimte om je eigen ke

Wij hebben de afgelopen week mogen genieten van de ondersteuning van een ontzettend fijne kraamhulp. Wat Iris echt bijzonder maakt, is hoe makkelijk en zeer prettig zij in de omgang is met mensen. Vanaf het eerste moment voelde het vertrouwd en ontspannen. Ze wist precies hoe ze moest inspelen op on
