THE COURSE TO PREPARE FOR BIRTH AND BEING A PARENT
Congratulations on becoming parents!
But how do you actually prepare for this probably the most beautiful but also demanding job, being a parent?
In addition to the joy that this event brings with it, there are also many questions and issues that you now have to deal with (for the first time). Everyone thinks they have good advice for the parents-to-be regarding birth, baby equipment, etc., and you are literally overwhelmed by the wealth of information on the internet. Of course, you want to be well prepared for your new role and the tasks ahead.
In my Welcome Baby course we discuss all these relevant topics, so that you have a good foundation for a successful and self-determined start into the adventure family. The bonding-oriented concept of the course is aimed at pregnant women and parents-to-be and can be seen as a wonderful and modern addition to a classic birth preparation course with a midwife. An ideal time for the Welcome Baby course is the second trimester of your pregnancy.
Together we deal among others with the following course topics
COURSE OFFER
In the Welcome Baby course, the above topics are divided into two modules. Each module has a duration of 3 hours. The course allows the exchange with like-minded people and offers a familiar atmosphere in a small group to feel free to ask of all your questions and express your concerns.

COSTS
The costs for the Welcome Baby course are not covered per se by the statutory health insurance as part of birth preparation. However, some health insurance companies offer bonus programs or have a certain quota for pregnant women, which can be used to (partially) reimburse the course. Whether your health insurance company will cover the course fee, you have to clarify individually.
The two modules can be booked seperately or combined with each other. If there is no suitable course for you or if you want to have the course content individually tailored to you, there is the possibility to book a module or the complete course exclusively. Then I come comfotably to your home.
The price shown are always for the mother including her partner.
