Pregnancy Circles
Pregnancy Circles and Postnatal Circles are groups designed to foster connection, mutual support and emotional well-being.
Western societies have lost the power of community and connection that is so necessary when a woman becomes a mother. For this reason, motherhood can be a lonely experience at first.
Our aim is to offer a space where women can be accompanied and supported from pregnancy to birth and postpartum.
We started offering these circles in January 2023 and since then we have seen magic happen every time a group of women gathered in the safe and special yurt. Heartfelt conversations and deep connections that endure through our Whatsapp groups.
Pineda is a birth and postpartum doula, and Kayleigh is a hypnobirthing teacher. They are the facilitators of the circles and offer their knowledge and experience to provide up-to-date, evidence-based information and resources and host these amazing women centred groups.
When women support each other, amazing things happen.
"Such a good "course"! I really looked forward to the relaxing nature of it every week and learnt so much too! Everything made so much more sense once you learnt about how the body actually works, especially the uterus muscles! Lots of focus on what you need after birth too in terms of the mum and postpartum life. Pineda and Kayleigh are amazing and so knowledgeable! Really enjoyed the relaxing meditation at the of each session too! Time flies in the yurt and you come out feeling very empowered! I miss it! 😂 Will hopefully be back for postnatal circles!" Daisy
"The space curated at the Yurt by Pineda and Kayleigh is so warm, welcoming and inclusive. As a second-time mum, I’ve really valued this extraordinary moment of connecting with my own body and baby and with other expectant mums. I’d recommend this to anyone feeling nervous or anxious about giving birth or to anyone going through pregnancy (even if you’ve done it before) for a much needed refresher and rare moment of self-care!"
