Frequently asked questions about the pregnancy consultant

No, the first appointment is always via video call.

A consultation with a pregnancy consultant is non-binding and completely free of charge for Helan customers.

Scheduling your consultation at the beginning of your pregnancy comes with several advantages. You can use it as an opportunity to inform Helan about your pregnancy.

In addition, you no longer need to worry about the administrative hassle surrounding your pregnancy. We guide you step by step through all the necessary procedures, ensuring you do not miss out on anything you are entitled to, such as leave or allowances.

Would you like additional support? If so, we would be happy to schedule a second or even third follow-up appointment with you.

Ja, het adviesgesprek met een zwangerschapsconsulent is altijd gratis. Ook als je nog geen klant bent bij Helan.

We hopen natuurlijk dat we je mogen overtuigen om over te stappen. Maar dat hoeft niet.

In de praktijk noemen we dit geen gesprek, maar eerder een traject bij een zwangerschapsconsulent. Dit traject bestaat uit drie gesprekken.

Het eerste gesprek duurt ongeveer een uur. Het tweede een halfuur. Het derde gesprek staat ook voor een halfuur ingepland, maar in de praktijk duurt het meestal maar een tiental minuten.
