A MOMENT FOR YOU

Pregnancy is a journey to motherhood.
A transition in your body, your mind, your life.

And especially when living abroad,
it can sometimes feel… like you are doing it alone.

This day is here to bring you back.

Back into your body.
Back into connection.
Back into trust.

Hi, I’m Marjolein Bruntink

Educated as a pelvic physiotherapist in the Netherlands,
mother of three, and now living in Javea, Spain —
I feel deeply grateful to guide women through pregnancy and motherhood
at The Yurt Javea.

This photo was taken just a few weeks after the birth of our third and last baby, 4 years ago.
A birth I truly wished for, after experiencing two more medical pregnancies.

That journey shaped me — not only as a mother,
but also in the way I guide and support other women.

My work goes beyond the physical.
Rooted in my background as a physiotherapist,
I bring together knowledge of the body with a more holistic, intuitive approach.

With years of experience working with women,
I support you in understanding and feeling your body —
not just moving through it.

So you can enter birth with more awareness,
confidence, and calm.
