Find a midwife in Stuttgart
If you are unable to find a midwife for your pregnancy, birth or postpartum care on your own initiative, we will be happy to support you and forward your request to freelance midwives in the Stuttgart Health Department network. You can find the contact form for the midwife coordination office (opens in a new tab) here.
Please note that only inquiries from Stuttgart and the following areas can be processed: Gerlingen, Ditzingen, Korntal-Münchingen, Kornwestheim, Fellbach, Ostfildern and Leinfelden-Echterdingen.
If you still cannot find a midwife in your area, keep looking and contact the midwives in your area again after the birth if necessary. Sometimes free capacities arise spontaneously. The following pages may help you in your search: the midwife list of the GKV Spitzenverband (opens in a new tab) and the midwife search Baden-Württemberg (opens in a new tab).
