Birth Preparation Course
This Course offers a gentle, informative, and grounding space to explore the physical, emotional, and mental transitions of pregnancy and birth. Rather than focusing only on techniques, this course invites you to understand birth as a natural, transformative process, one that involves the whole person: body, mind, emotions, and environment.
Birth Preparation Course
Overview
In this course, we will approach pregnancy and birth with awareness, trust in the body’s wisdom, and practical tools that help you feel prepared, calm, and connected as you move toward welcoming your baby.
During the course, we explore:
• Pregnancy as a physical and emotional journey
• Hormones and the wisdom of the body
• Birth as a transformative experience
• Supporting labor: body, mind, and environment
• Postpartum: integration, bonding, and recovery
What You’ll Learn
- Understand the changes happening in your body and inner world, and how to support yourself through them.
-
Explore how hormonal processes influence pregnancy, labour, bonding, and recovery, and how to work with them rather than against them.
-

-
Learn practical ways to create safety, calm, and support during labour through awareness, presence, and the right surroundings.
-
Prepare for the weeks after birth, focusing on emotional integration, connection with your baby, and gentle recovery.

What others say
“Our birth was just as I wanted it to be, feeling informed of my choices and in control at all times. Ayelet helped us understand what to expect from delivering a baby in the Netherlands. She explained our medical options and how to achieve the birth I hoped for, bringing in strategies to relax and ease my anxiety. It would have been a very different experience without Ayelet.”
“Ayelet was my doula – my ‘silent angel’ during the birth of my son, and I am so glad we were together. My partner and she were my best team. She listened, gave great advice, and helped us understand what we wanted. I know my birth experience would have been very different without her.”
“Warm, wholesome and someone I would happily return to if I would be blessed with another pregnancy.
I highly recommend Ayelet, her knowledge combined with her experience, warmth and compassion are what every expectant mother needs on the journey through pregnancy and motherhood..”
