From pregnancy to postpartum
My Childbirth Education course is designed for parents who want to deepen their understanding of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. This preparation empowers you with the knowledge and confidence to feel more prepared and informed for each stage of the journey, helping you embrace what’s to come with clarity and ease.
My Childbirth Education course is a comprehensive preparation designed to give you confidence and clarity for every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Tailored to the Dutch obstetric system, we cover a wide range of essential topics, including:
​
Understanding the Dutch Obstetric System: Your birth options, available places for birth, and the professionals who can support you.
Body Changes and Birth Preparation: The natural changes during pregnancy, birth planning, and the benefits of movement during labor.
Support and Pain Relief Options: Ways your partner can assist you, as well as non-pharmacological and pharmacological pain relief options, including the pros and cons of each.
Specific Birth Situations: Information on cesarean sections, skin-to-skin bonding, and practical practices you can do during labor.
Postpartum Essentials: Herbs for perineum care, nutrition, understanding baby blues, the postpartum period, and natural care for both you and your baby—including placenta care and menstrual return.

This course includes two meetings of 1.5 hours to 2 hours each, offered either online or in person at Ventre Space, for €360. Additional sessions can be arranged if desired to ensure you feel completely prepared.
