Unborn babies are conscious beings, they are sensitive, they learn, react and communicate with their mother all the time. Your womb is your child's first classroom and the experiences lived inside the womb will organize your baby's physical, emotional and psychological development.
You become a parent from the moment you start thinking about having a baby, that is when parenting really starts. Your baby is learning about the outside world through the mother's inside signals. Knowing more about how you and your environment are influencing your baby in the womb is key to give your baby the best start.
We gather and summarize information, research and resources on conscious conception, pregnancy, uterine life, birth and parent-child relationships, empowering women and couples to participate in the informed consent process.

“Findings point to the time shortly before conception to after birth as the most sensitive and critical period in establishing patterns in all areas of our life; physical, mental, emotional, and relational.”
