Refresher Birthing Course

This one’s for you — a refresher. Between the kids at home and the excitement of the baby on the way, life moves fast, so we’re here for a single three-hour session to bring back all the small, important details of your journey.

Online Childbirth Course — now from home, too!

We’re here for you with an online course, in whatever way suits you best.

The online courses are paid (fully refunded for women who give birth at Mayanei Hayeshua).
The online courses can’t be viewed by customers of the Netfree, Etrog, or Nativ filtering services.

The course comes highly recommended for pregnant women up to week 33. Women who take a childbirth preparation course tend to feel calmer, thanks to the deeper understanding it gives them. They know what to expect, they understand the process, and they go through the experience without unnecessary fears or worries.
