A non-profit organization dedicated to providing the women of Kuwait more information and resources about pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and early parenting. Our hope is to become a central information hub via a cyber network for support services: prenatal, preconception, breastfeeding and birthing classes, support groups, prenatal yoga, mothers groups, breastfeeding support groups, mother/child
classes, nutrition classes, new mother infant care classes, and prenatal/newborn services (infant massage ..etc)
Currently we have:
- weekly prenatal yoga classes
- weekly Mommy & Baby yoga classes
- bi-weekly childbirth education workshops
- monthly breastfeeding workshops
* please check our website for the updated schedule
We also hope to be a great resource for women living in Kuwait with the launch of an annual conference on birth: lectures on nutrition, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and parenting; booths for services and support groups; and the sale of the most recent books, services, and products for pregnant and breastfeeding women. We are also working towards building the capacity in Kuwait by setting up training workshops to train more childbirth educators, doulas, breastfeeding peer support counselors etc. We have so far conducted the first training workshops for the following fields:
March 2012 DONA Doula
January 2013 BLOOMA Prenatal Yoga Trainer
Finally, with the launch of an online Birth Survey, we hope to make maternity care in Kuwait more transparent. Equipped with the information they need, we want to help women make informed choices about who and where to birth.
