Birth Preparation
Every birth is unique, and this adventurous event can never be planned completely. Pregnant women and their companions want to prepare for it in very different ways. In an individual birth preparation course, I design a course that covers what is desired. To this end, I determine the basic requirements in advance using a questionnaire. The course takes place either at home or in my practice room and lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours, depending on your needs.
I felt very well cared for, understood, and taken seriously by Laurentia throughout. My partner and I attended a tailor-made antenatal class with her for my first birth. Laurentia was very knowledgeable and answered our questions with great patience. Using many visual aids and strategies, she guided us through the birth process, prepared us for eventualities if things didn’t go according to plan, showed us various breathing techniques that I was actually able to use during the birth, and worked out a cheat sheet with my partner for during the birth. What helped me most was understanding the course of the birth and recording it visually using a kind of mind map with tips for each stage of the birth. This gave me confidence and guidance during the birth.
I can highly recommend Laurentia’s birth preparation course!
