Imagine custom fit support for you and your partner’s needs, taking your cultural background, personal life style and individual circumstances into account so you can:
• grow and hold a close connection to your baby
• relax and transform your fears into focused awareness and trust
• make informed evidence-based decisions that match your philosophy
• have support to adjust and re-define your relationships with your partner, family and friends.
