Birth preparation Course
"I participated in a birth preparation course with Mathilde and Ida and I'm so happy I did. I gravitated towards the course after some prenatal yoga classes with Mathilde and then discovering their Instagram content, which focused around physiological birth and empowering women to take ownership of their birth. I absolutely loved the approach and decided to take the course. In the course, I felt that I could bring my whole self without judgement and with full understanding, build relationships with like minded women and deepen my connection with my baby. I now feel so much more prepared and supported to have the birth on my terms and looking forward to it as I'm feeling so empowered to trust my body and my baby in the process. My husband took part in a couple of sessions on learning how to prepare to be the best support person and he's feeling much calmer and more empowered as well. We are so grateful for the work you are doing for all the mothers!”

Birth is not just one day of your life. How you prepare and what you experience in your birth will have an impact on how you feel when you enter motherhood. To prepare for the rite of passage that birth is it often takes a great deal of unlearning, unlearning the layers of mistrust and fear our female bodies has been treated with for centuries.
Our in depth birth preparation will give you the knowledge you need to make informed decisions, both during pregnancy, birth and beyond. Our course is suitable for all types of birth, whether you are preparing to give birth at home or at the hospital.
Our aim is to make you feel prepared and informed when going into this intense , transformative and beautiful experience. In this way you will be able to navigate through birth, while making conscious decisions and feel safe and supported in your wishes. Together we will sit, talk and learn about birth and how it works both on a physiological and psychological level. We will breathe, move, journal and learn about different techniques that can be used during birth.
We believe in the inherent wisdom of the female body - that you already know how to be pregnant, give birth and mother your baby.
You will be a part of a small supportive group and meet women who, just like you, are on a transformative journey towards motherhood. It will be a space for you to share your thoughts and feelings, and you will experience the power of being in a community where you are being held by other women.
Listening to and trusting your inner voice and intuition is your strongest tool during labor and birth and we are here to support you in the power you already possess.
No woman, pregnancy, birth or baby are the same. We are here for you no matter what kind of birth you are preparing for.
In this course you will learn about:
The Herstory of childbirth
Patterns & Birth Stories - your own, your partners
How the nervous system works
Birth physiology
Rebozo & Acupressure for your birth support
Responsibility & Bodily Autonomy
Offerings and interventions in the system
Making informed choices
Language (how to use your voice)
The postpartum time, breastfeeding & creating community
You’ll receive a comprehensive and informative workbook with additional information, full access to our online course, and get access to a full reference list and a list of recommendations for support in pregnancy, birth and motherhood. Your birth partner is invited to join us on the 3rd and 4th date.*
*your birth partner is the person you choose to be your support in birth. This can be a friend, doula/birth keeper, a co-parent or anyone you trust in your birth space.
Language: The course will be taught in Danish or English as needed.
