non-medicinal preparation for the childbirth

During 15 days the speakers and we did our best to present the worldwide participants ‘the elite’ knowledge of the most heartfelt and reputable professionals on non-medicinal preparation for the childbirth (physical, psychological, spiritual), professional partnership in giving birth and natural obstetrics, as well as on baby’s first year life span on natural parenthood approaches.

We as the organisers are extremely proud of our project, as it appeared really global, interesting, fruitful and unique. We’d like to believe that the Festival comprises a strong educative inception and symbolizes exactly that new childbirth paradigm phenomenon that our dear Michel Odent, MD inspirationally talked about in his webinar.

Just before the webinars, we’ve found out that our Speakers – Evelina (Russia), Olga (Netherlands) and Ana (Slovenia) – are in exciting delicate condition, expecting a baby-Miracle. We’re sure that their condition and their babies helped them to enrich their webinars making them more valuable and energetic for pregnant women and planners! We’re so happy for our speakers and do wish them joyful pregnancy, safe and easy giving birth, happiness in their families!

Natural childbirth non-medical preparation

Our Festival fulfills its specific mission to merge - creating a stable bridge between the experts and their developments in obstetrics, maternity care and conscious parenthood.

The strategic idea of the Festival is to involve international professionals to increase women’s awareness about :

  • their basic needs (including babies’ needs) in childbirth and early postpartum,
  • their human right to choose the circumstances in which they give birth,
  • a role of childbirth assistants (Midwives, Doulas) in childbirth preparation and labour,
  • importance of the preparation for childbirth per se,
  • support of the authentic midwifery development.
Natural childbirth non-medical preparation

We sincerely invite you to our online event where about 50 international experts on childbirth preparation, labour management and postnatal patronage (from US, UK, France, Switzerland, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan etc) within 15 days will be conducting 30 minute webinars on topical issues for pregnant women and newly moms.

Online Festival format is the day-to-day webinars (three 30 minute webinars per day with follow-up 15 minute questions-answers session; weekdays – 3 webinars per day, weekends – 2 evening webinars). Peculiarity of such a Festival format is possibility for speakers to feel comfortable in conducting webinars at home, while for participants it’s not to miss out the online Fest at home, at work, on a visit.

We provide speakers with an extensive technical support in webinars conduction, even though a speaker is unskilled in work with PC and Internet. We also provide them with assistance of the option of proper webinar topic and right webinar structuring.

You can see in the screeshot how Lisa Sykes, a president of European Doula Network (Geneva, Switzerland), tells about our Online Festival on Natural Childbirth’2015 in the EDN Newsletter (March 2015).

You can also watch Lisa's video about the fact that Ukrainian and Russian Doulas Associations joined EDN just due to our Festival here.

Besides, within the Festival we plan an event especially for the invited speakers-experts – a Round Table (Peer Review) targeted to provide clear definitions of ‘Doula’, ‘Home Midwife’ and ‘Spiritual Midwife’: functions, ‘competence limits’ for ideas exchange and worldwide partnership establishment. Such an Information Partnership affords following potentialities for speakers:

  • extension of the data pool of your participants, partners, patrons due to the facts that:
  • Festival target audience is pregnant women;
  • we email your offers in our subscriptionsrs data base before, during and after the Festival;
  • during your speech (web appearance) web links to your websites will be available for the listeners;
  • strengthening of your technological possibilities in positioning you as a webinar conducting expert (you allocate information about the Fest on your websites and social networks doing a mutual promotion of your own web resources with the Festival.
Let Mothers Gave Birth at Home

The apotheosis of the Festival is supposed to be signing a web Petition to the Prime-Minister of Ukraine ‘Let Mothers Gave Birth at Home, Being Busy with their Babies but not with Papers! ’ by participants and speakers of the Festival, which will be send out to the addressee just at the end of the online event.
