Translator and editor of The First 8 Days of Being a Mom and founder of iCare Press. Gea Meijering gave birth to two sons on two different continents within twenty months. While going through that, she discovered that maternity care and recovery was organized totally different in the United States as compared to the Netherlands. Actually she was amazed that most new moms in the U.S. are on their own again very soon after their delivery. No time to recuperate from the delivery, or to learn and get used to the newborn. And no one to teach them the tricks of the trade. In the Netherlands every new mom gets a specialized nurse at home for the first 8 days after delivery. Gea realized that the Dutch approach she experienced with her oldest son was very special. And that the book she used then, and used again the second time, would be a great help to all the moms in the US, as it was for her. It took her some time because she was busy with diapers, park days, painting, Spanish, and other very important stuff being new mom. But she is proud to announce the birth of The First 8 Days of Being a Mom. And while in the process of making the book she discovered that publishing it herself would give her much more flexibility. Gea founded iCare Press, LLC to realize her goal and get this valuable information available to new moms in the US. The past years Gea has lived in the US busy with her mommy career. That gradually evolved from nursing to applying band-aids to volunteering in the classroom to starting up her own company. She grew up in the Netherlands, obtained a bachelor degree in tourism and recreation studies and worked as a marketing professional for more then 10 years at a national insurance company and international bank. She moved to the US together with her husband for his new job. Gea takes painting classes to satisfy her artistic drive, loves to travel and tries to work out on a regular basis. But most importantly she is committed to steering her two children through childhood, with bumps and bruises, laughs and joy along the way.
