Midwife support in Istanbul, shaped around you.
From pregnancy and birth to breastfeeding and the first year: support that listens to your needs and is planned with you.
Let's begin wherever you are.
When looking for a private midwife or breastfeeding support in Istanbul, it matters to find someone you can speak with comfortably. I am Melike Spor. With more than 12 years of professional experience, I support mothers and families from pregnancy through the time after birth.
You may be preparing for your first baby, planning support for birth or looking for answers in the early days with your baby. At our first conversation, we explore your stage, expectations and a suitable way to support you.
Choose the support that fits your needs.
In birth preparation, we focus on information and your preferences; in birth support, communication and companionship; in breastfeeding conversations, your and your baby's experience. For postpartum and baby care support, we make a plan that fits your daily life.
In-person and online conversations in Istanbul
For private midwife support in Istanbul, share your district, preferred meeting format and the period when you would like support. On either the Asian or European side, location, travel, timing and availability are considered together. Hospital attendance depends on the institution and healthcare team's rules.
For families outside Istanbul
Online conversations and planned in-person support are offered across Turkey. Availability and travel arrangements are agreed at first contact; this does not mean there is a permanent office or team in every city.
See how online and nationwide midwife support is planned.
To start planning, briefly share the service you are interested in, your district or city and what you hope to discuss. You do not need to include detailed health records in your first message.
If you are looking for breastfeeding support in Istanbul
Begin by briefly sharing your expectations. Read the Breastfeeding support page for the scope of support, and the consultation preparation guide for help organising your questions. Online and in-person options are considered in the context of your needs and the scope of the conversation.
We plan birth support in advance.
For companionship during hospital birth, we discuss your expected birth period, hospital attendance rules and the healthcare team's arrangements beforehand. The plan considers your preferences alongside the requirements of the responsible team.
Comparing private midwife support in Istanbul
Service names may look similar in search results. Before deciding, distinguish the stage each service covers: preparation before birth, companionship during labour, breastfeeding consultations and postpartum support involve different plans. Start with what you need today to discuss which service may suit you.
These questions can help you compare options on the same basis:
- What information can I review about professional training and experience?
- Is the support I want included, and which topics need separate planning?
- Who will attend, where will we meet and how will the length be agreed?
- If I want birth companionship, who should confirm the hospital's rules for external midwives and companions?
- How will we communicate if the date or meeting format changes?
- How will the channel and scope of support between meetings be agreed?

Compare the same scope when asking about fees.
When asking about private midwife fees in Istanbul, first clarify what the meeting includes. A single preparation conversation, ongoing support across several meetings and hospital birth companionship may require different arrangements. Ask how the format, date, duration, location and any transport or travel affect the fee.
When comparing, note which meetings and communication are included as well as the total price. Ask directly whether follow-up is planned separately and about rescheduling or cancellation conditions. At Ebe Melike, fees are discussed once the scope and availability are clear. Send an enquiry to discuss meeting options and arrangements.
Questions about planning support in Istanbul
Are same-day appointments available in every Istanbul district?
Share your district and meeting preference. In-person support is planned around location, timing and availability; a same-day appointment or availability on every date is not automatically promised.
What does 24/7 support mean?
Melike offers support 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Its scope and communication arrangements are defined in the plan agreed with you. In-person appointments or hospital attendance require separate discussion of availability and conditions.
Your first message starts a conversation. An appointment and support plan take shape once we agree the details together.
Let's begin together.
Whatever stage you are at, we can talk about your needs.
