The Nurtured Mama & Baby Circles

🌿 What are The Nurtured Mama & Baby Circles?🌿
The Nurtured Mama & Baby Circles are gentle gatherings for mothers-to-be and mothers with babies up to six months old. They bring together neuroscience, nurturing care and genuine community support.
Grounded in the work of neuroscientist and doula Dr Greer Kirshenbaum and her book The Nurture Revolution, these circles explore how both your brain and your baby’s brain grow through love, connection and regulation beginning in pregnancy and continuing through the early years.
Through grounding practices, guided reflections, and science-based insights, you’ll deepen your bond with your baby and learn how to build lifelong mental health for both of you.
This is a space where you can feel seen, supported and never alone in your journey into motherhood.
🌿 For whom? 🌿
- Mothers-to-be
- Mothers with babies from 0 to about 6 months (pre-crawlers).
🌿 How can these circles help you? 🌿
In these circles, you will:
- Learn how your brain and your baby’s brain grow through nurture
- Deepen your bond from pregnancy through early infancy
- Support your nervous system so you can feel calmer and more present
- Build confidence in your nurturing instincts
- Feel less alone through real, meaningful connection
- Gain practical tools to support lifelong mental health — for both of you
- Feel seen, supported and never judged
🌿 What to expect during each circle?🌿
Each class is 1,5 hour long and will include:
- A nourishing practice for you, such as grounding meditations, gentle stretches, breathing practices, and journaling.
- A practice to connect you with your baby through touch, voice, movement, and meditation.
- An opportunity to learn one health-promoting topic
- An opportunity to share your experience, ask questions, and receive support from the nurturing community of other mothers.
Each week, we will cover one topic that mothers need to know to grow lifelong health for their babies and themselves, such as:
- Parent brain development.
- Fostering an empathic relationship with your baby.
- Growing your baby’s brain through communication.
- Nurturing your baby through sleep.
- Understanding your baby’s stress.
- Reducing stress for mothers.
🌿 All practical details 🌿
The circles will run for a total of 12 weeks, with 12 or 6 classes (in person) and a BONUS workshop (online).
12 weekly classes:
On Friday mornings, from 10:00 to 11:30.
🗓️ Dates: April 17, 24 — May 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 — June 5, 12, 19, 26 – July 3
Location: Free Flow yogaloft, Hogekouterstraat 60, 9030 Mariakerke (Ghent)

❗ Bonus workshop ❗
The bonus workshop ‘Nurtured Infant Sleep’ is included in the programme.
Online
🗓️ Date: Wednesday, May 20, from 16.30 to 18:00
This workshop will help you understand infant sleep, explore unrealistic expectations, and provide practical strategies for nurturing sleep for your baby and the whole family.
🌿 What is the cost?🌿
These circles will run as a test course to complete my certification. While fees vary, a typical mama circle or mama & baby class costs 20-25 euros per class.
I offer The Nurtured Mama & Baby Circles on a donation basis, and the suggested donation is 8 – 15 euros per class (95-180 euros for all 12 classes + the bonus workshop on Infant Sleep). This is to ensure comittment and to cover some basic costs I incur organising these circles.
Would you like to participate and fully commit to the programme, but the suggested donation is too high? Please get in touch, and we can discuss the options!
