Information about breastfeeding via Zoom by lactation consultant Heleen Hilgers
Many videos are used during the workshop so that you can easily recognize what to look out for when your baby is born.
Questions that will be addressed are:
- How do you know when are the best times to feed your baby and get enough nutrition?
- How do you ensure that you are breastfeeding enough?
- What role do you as a partner have in feeding?
- How and when can you express and bottle feed?
- What is a normal eating and sleeping pattern for your baby?
Of course there is plenty of room for your own questions.

Babyfee
We are sometimes so busy preparing for childbirth that we forget that you can also prepare well for the period after birth. And this is precisely where Melanie, the baby fairy, would like to help you.
This information will help you:
- Create a healthy (sleeping) basis for the newborn phase and the years after.
- Soothe a troubled baby.
- Recognize your baby's signals and needs.
- Get a good flow in the day and night.
- Structure and rhythm ensure predictability and that gives confidence. This creates more space for you as parents, the baby, and ultimately for the whole family.
Her approach is based on harmony. Each part is a fraction of the whole. If your baby sleeps well, it affects your night's sleep. A good night's sleep affects your mood, which in turn affects your self-confidence. And that makes you as a parent a better and calmer benchmark for your child. Which means that your child systematically becomes more balanced. So a snowball effect. Made of positivity.
The next informational evening for pregnant women and partners is:
- Wednesday February 24th at 8 p.m.
And because Femme does not stop after 9 months, we also provide information for clients who have already given birth up to 12 weeks after the delivery. This next date is:
- Tuesday March 10th at 8:00 p.m.
You can register at the bottom of this page. Indicate at which information and date you want to register yourself + possible partner and you will receive the zoom link.
Online information course about the first period with baby and parenthood.
You notice that a lot in pregnancy is about childbirth. However, this is a few hours and then you have a baby! And then... ;)
We noticed that there was a need for some more preparation for the period after birth. That is why 2 youth doctors who also invented Drs.Mama, developed after some real life try outs in 2019 with us, this online education course with a lot of information for after the birth. It's Dutch spoken. You can register via this link: https://drsmama.com/online-babycursus-via-doorverwijzing/
