About the Courses​

​

​The birth preparation weekend course offers a calm and supportive space to prepare for birth and the time after. You’ll receive practical tools, evidence-based knowledge, and emotional support as you get ready for this new chapter as a family.

You’ll be encouraged to explore what feels right for you as you move into parenthood. The course focuses on understanding the birth process, learning how to support the birthing partner, building trust in your body, and gaining confidence to make your own decisions. Alongside clear information, there is space for reflection, questions, and open exchange with other expecting families.

​​

​

The Course topics include:

​

• The stages of labour, how to recognise and handle them

• Breathing techniques, birthing positions, massages

• Coping with challenges during labour and making informed decisions

• The role of the partner during birth and in the early postpartum period

• Emotional wellbeing and mental health around birth

• The first days with your baby: bonding, feeding and recovery

Costs

The course is fully covered by public health insurance for the pregnant participant.

The partner fee is €160. Most health insurance providers reimburse part of this amount after submission of a payment confirmation. If paying the full partner fee is not possible for personal or financial reasons, please feel free to reach out via email.

Accessibility

I believe that everyone deserves to prepare for birth in a space where they feel safe, respected and seen. This course is open to all, regardless of religion, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation or ability. It is held with awareness for the many different experiences people bring, including sensitivity to racism, queerness, ableism, and other forms of exclusion. This is a space for you to show up as you are. The course room is wheelchair accessible, the toilets are not barrier-free though. If you have specific needs or questions regarding accessibility or personal support, feel free to get in touch.
