Midwife Nina Van Schaick had a calling, drawn to the raw, intimate moments of bringing life into the world. But she couldn’t ignore the unspoken agony she witnessed: 90% of women still endure tearing during childbirth.
In a world where only 1% of pharma R&D goes toward maternal health, Nina realised she’d have to fix it herself. Now, her gloves are off. Nina has created a groundbreaking solution to tackle perineal tearing and taking her delivery room grit to the boardrooms that have long overlooked women’s health. This is her journey from midwife to FemTech pioneer.
