Wendy Menghin

Ms. Wendy Menghin is a midwife since 2004. Originally from Italy, she flew to the Middle East in 2011. After a few years in Abu Dhabi, she came to Dubai and currently working in American Hospital since 2018. She has a passion for empowering women on the motherhood journey, natural birth, waterbirth, and helping during the postpartum adventure when the new family starts. After becoming a mother herself and understanding even better how difficult it can be, she became a Lactation Consultant to help new mothers with baby’s feeding and needs during the first months. In American Hospital, she works in the Lactation Clinic, where you can find support to breastfeed or feed your baby, and she is organizing Antenatal and Baby Massage classes. She also works in the post-partum ward, following women after delivery. Every last Wednesday of the month in collaboration with her colleagues, she organizes "Coffee Morning" for mums and babies, where new mothers can meet each other in a safe environment and talk about the most amazing and difficult job in the world which is being a Mum.
