100+ hour Postpartum Certification recognised in 30+ countries

Newborn Mothers Certification blends traditional postpartum care principles with modern evidence-based support skills.

It prepares students to provide holistic, non-medical support to families in the weeks and months after childbirth. By the end of the Certification, learners will:

  • develop cultural competence, emotional literacy, and trauma awareness,

  • work in a professional, ethical, and inclusive manner,

  • share information based on scientific evidence,

  • and build a community of support around families.

The certification aligns theory with practical application, ensuring learners integrate knowledge through reflective exercises, case studies and role-plays before their final practical assessment working with families.
