The preparation for childbirth is a process that started long time ago and involves the deepest spheres of every woman, her childhood, her educational background, the relationship she has with her body and with her parents, her self-image.
Always keeping in mind the peculiarities of this unique and individual experience, our childbirth preparation classes are structured to allow a fruitful meeting between the prospective parents and our team of health care professionals, consisting of obstetricians, pediatricians, gynecologists and psychologists, who have the task of helping the couple to deal with labor, delivery and breastfeeding, in a conscious and serene manner.
Together, topics are discussed concerning the changes in a woman’s body due to the pregnancy, the stages of the development of their first child, before birth and in the following days after.
The courses consist of a theoretical part, where we talk about the anatomy and physiology of women, pregnancy, labor/delivery, and suggest practical ways of how to care for and manage the newborn. The practical part of the course has the couple perform exercises to increase awareness and the creative power of the force innate in every woman. The course is open to all, even to couples who have already had children and therefore have already dealt with this life-changing event. Their presence is strongly encouraging and positive for prospective parents, experiencing the birth of a child for the first time.
