You are excited to be pregnant and for your upcoming birth but all the noise of the outside world with all their opinions and stories about what you "have" to do or not do is making you feel apprehensive. You are afraid that being too excited for the birth will end up with you being disappointed. Deep down you already know that you are strong enough to handle whatever comes your way, but you daren't say it out loud. You are craving for a community of like minded folks who also want to do whatever they can to have the most positive birth and postpartum possible and who you can feel honest around. You also are really longing for an opportunity for you and your birth partner to connect with each other and a space for them to also feel they can be honest and open about everything they are feeling with all of life's big changes right now. And really, you also want a space to really dig deep, have loved poured on you, feel nourished and cared for, and discover new parts of yourself you hadn't yet met.

DAY ONE

10am-7pm | Saturday May 23, 2020
Pregnant Person Only
Snacks, Lunch and Dinner Included

We clear any unwanted fears, worries, or concerns. We identify the thoughts that distract us from living into our full potential to make powerful choices as we transition into parents. As we move throughout the day, you will start to discover a new connection with nature, yourself and your baby. Building upon ambitions, love and resilience, we will then take the time to acknowledge ourselves and ceremoniously get connected to the true power of our womb and the journey we are embarking on.

DAY TWO

10am-5pm | Sunday May 24, 2020
Pregnant Person and their chosen birth partner
Snacks and Lunch included

Bring your partner of choice. We reflect on the new intentions and create what it means to bring a sacredness to this time. We develop our connection to our partners so that they too can be fully present and support the adventure. As our weekend comes to a close you will leave with your wild wisdom knowing that you have everything you need to birth yourself, your family and your baby with nothing to be afraid of, and nothing to withhold. Be fully expressed in your love, confidence and vitality.

"Michelle was empowering and encouraging. I'm so grateful for people like her who believed in the birth I wanted and supported me along the way. I trusted fully in my body and my intuition. I'm proud of the birth I created"
- Jayme T.
"Samantha brought a sense of calm during all stages of our journey together.  Knowledgeable, supportive and truly free of judgement, Samantha is a wonderful doula.  Highly recommend and forever thankful."
- Lindsay R.

This retreat brings together two Greater Vancouver area doulas together - Samantha from The Maya's Nest Birth and Michelle from Crowning Glory Birth Inc. While this isn't the first time the two doulas have collaborated (you may have seen one of their talks at Pomme Market! They are also regular guests over at lulu lemon headquarters) this is by far the biggest and most extensive collaboration to date. 

Samantha and Michelle bring together their unique view points and vast experience in working with families all across the Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley as they prepared and welcomed their babies. While they each have their own definitive styles, what is shared between the two is their commitment in guiding families in discovering what is truly important to their individual families and then helping them navigate through their births and those first few weeks postpartum so they can all experience powerful, love filled, confident journeys to parenthood.

Our retreat is being held at a gorgeous farmhouse in Langley, BC. You will receive the full address after registration. 

It was important to us that the space we chose was the perfect space to do deep work, to connect with yourself, your baby and your partner. Weather depending, we plan to spend some time outdoors in nature. The indoor space is warm and cozy.
​Oh and did we mention horses? Yes. Horses right outside our door.

Is this a prenatal childbirth class?
No. This is not your regular prenatal class. While we will be covering some of the same topics, this weekend is not focused on the basics of birth. You will still leave with a TON of knowledge, and most importantly, knowledge about yourself and your unique needs for birth.
Why is my partner only invited on day 2?
When we designed this weekend, we knew we wanted the birth partners to be included, because they are an essential part of your birth story! BUT, we also know that to get to the level of discovery we are guiding you towards, being able to focus on your own journey is essential.
Who is this weekend for?
This weekend is for any birthing person who is looking to discover their deepest needs as they make the transition into parenthood. They are looking to connect with their wild intuition and intrinsic power. They must come with an open mind! This weekend is fully inclusive to all kinds of birthers and families.
What should I bring to the event?
All you need is a notebook and a pen! You are also welcome to bring anything that brings you comfort. There is one more thing we will ask you to bring, but we will send you the details of that closer to the date!
We are taking care of the food, snacks, and everything else. If you have any special requests, please do not hesitate to let us know.
Is my registration fee or ticket transferrable?
Tickets are non-refundable, but you are welcome to pass them along to a friend if you can not attend.
Do you have any more questions about the retreat? Do not hesitate to get in touch!
