I landed in Denmark while heavily pregnant with my first daughter. Navigating life in a new country—with new systems, new risks, and new parenting methods—was a lot, even as a doctor myself.
Through Doctor Mum, I work to empower parents and caregivers to confidently respond to emergencies, manage common childhood illnesses and injuries, create safer environments, and navigate Denmark's systems with less stress.
Start by exploring the free tools I've created, build your knowledge of common childhood illness and injuries with my guides and eBooks, or build your skills and confidence with an in-person course!

American mum of two in Copenhagen
"I recently took the first-aid course, and would highly recommend it to any new or experienced parent in Copenhagen. It’s so rare to find a first-aid course in English that provides you with this level of knowledge and experience for handling emergency situations when it comes to babies, toddlers, and young children. If you’re thinking about taking the first-aid course, do not hesitate."
Essential First Aid for Infants and Children Attendee
"I was so thankful to be able to take this amazing CPR first aid course hosted by Emma who runs Doctor Mum for Kids. We covered essential infant and child first aid, choking, and other emergency situations. In addition, as a mom in Copenhagen, I am always looking for ways to connect with other English speaking moms in our community. Emma brought together an amazing group, and we all left feeling more secure in our knowledge about child safety!"
mum of 3 in Copenhagen
"My mothers’ group recently completed Emma’s first aid course for babies and kids, and we learned so much about CPR, how to handle choking incidents, and lots of other relevant childcare medical issues. Emma is incredibly knowledgeable about all things related to pediatrics. She took time to answer all of our (many) questions and sent lots of follow-up resources."
mum of 2 in Copenhagen
"I just completed a parent-focused first-aid course in Copenhagen, and it was fantastic. Emma, the pediatrician leading the class, made complex emergency skills easy to understand, from CPR to treating burns and injuries. The course was very practical, hands-on, and welcoming, giving me real confidence to act if an emergency ever happens. Thank you, Emma, I highly recommend this course to any parent! "
