Birth Preparation Class in English in Berlin

A calm, supportive space for pregnancy and early parenthood

Who this birth preparation is for

Are you expecting your first baby and feeling excited, nervous, or both?
Living in Berlin while preparing for birth can feel overwhelming – especially when English is the language you feel safest in.

My English birth preparation class in Berlin offers a calm, supportive space where you can understand the birth process, ask questions, and prepare in a way that feels right for you.

This is not about perfect plans or fixed outcomes.
It is about having a voice, feeling informed, and being supported.

What this birth preparation offers

In this course, we explore:

• how birth usually begins and unfolds
• how birth may feel – physically and emotionally
• when to call your midwife or go to the hospital
• what happens during labour and birth in Germany
• birth positions and supportive tools
• the first two hours after birth
• the postpartum period (Wochenbett)
• breastfeeding basics

There is space for conversation, questions, and reflection.
You are encouraged to express your wishes, needs, and uncertainties.

More than information – connection

Berlin may be home for now, but for many expecting parents, family is far away.
This course also offers the opportunity to connect with other English-speaking parents who are pregnant and preparing for life with a baby in Berlin.

Many soon to be parents leave not only feeling more informed, but also less alone.
