“You are a midwife, assisting at someone else’s birth.

Do good without show or fuss.

Facilitate what is happening rather than what you think ought to be happening.

If you must take the lead, lead so that the mother is helped,

yet still free and in charge.

When the baby is born, the mother will rightly say,

“We did it ourselves!”

From the Tao Te Ching

Want to know more about the Silent Birthkeeper course?

The one-year online course is limited to a small group of people, as it is a personal journey we take together. It is an opportunity for you to spend time with yourself, delving into your relationship with birth, what it means to be a guardian of birth and what it means for you to attend births. The course is held within a tightly held container, and we do our best to honour the unique journey that each person undertakes.

One of the beauties of the Silent Birthkeeper space is the diversity of the participants, not only from a cultural perspective, but we have people joining us from all corners of the world and so we get to gather in a monthly virtual circle from different seasons, time zones and hemispheres.

The course begins on the 14th of November 2024.

Early bird pricing closes on 30 September 2024.

Bookings close on 4 November 2024.
