Online Birth Preparation for Couples

Traditional midwifery & Spinning Babies® · 6 evenings · 14 hours · live online

Good birth preparation is more than information. It builds trust, confidence, and connection — between you as a couple, with your body, and with your baby.

This online birth preparation course for couples combines traditional midwifery knowledge with the proven methods of Spinning Babies®. It's designed for couples who want to experience pregnancy, birth, and the early weeks afterward together — and well prepared.

Spinning Babies® — gentle techniques for an easier birth

Spinning Babies® is an internationally established approach used by midwives and birth professionals worldwide. It's based on the understanding that balance, mobility, and tension in the mother's body structures can influence the baby's position in the pelvis.

Through targeted, gentle exercises, this approach supports the body's natural birth mechanics — helping create optimal conditions for a favorable birth position and an easier labor.

What the course covers

The course runs over 6 live online evenings, 14 hours in total — combining knowledge, bodywork, and hands-on guidance for you as a couple.

Topics include:

  • Changes and experiences during pregnancy

  • Movement and everyday-friendly exercises (including Spinning Babies®)

  • Pelvic balance, posture, and mobility

  • The stages of labor, explained clearly

  • Breathing, bodywork, and helpful positions during birth

  • Mental preparation for birth and the time after

  • The partner's role: supporting, guiding, providing reassurance

  • A dedicated Spinning Babies® Parent Educator evening with practical exercises

  • The postpartum period: physical and emotional changes

  • Breastfeeding and/or bottle-feeding — an honest, non-dogmatic perspective

The focus is on a physiological, informed, and self-determined birth — without pressure or idealization.

My approach

I'm a midwife trained in traditional midwifery practice, and I've worked independently for over 20 years, both in hospital delivery rooms and in out-of-hospital care.

As one of the few certified Spinning Babies® Parent Educators in Germany, and one of very few midwives with this training in Munich, I bring together solid professional expertise and extensive hands-on experience.

I aim to guide you calmly, clearly, and attentively — with respect for your individual views and your path as a family.
