At Touching Life, we build our philosophy on promoting the emotional and physical well-being of mothers-to-be, their babies, and the whole family.
Your body knows many changes through pregnancy, which are difficult for your body to undertake. Knowing how to prepare for labor can help you have a more comfortable, painless, and satisfying birth experience. You will gain or maximize the confidence and ability to give birth without fear to trust your inner strength and intuition. Whether you have a home birth, hospital birth, medicated, or natural birth, those classes can walk you through what you need to know before having a baby.
We offer childbirth classes (prenatal) based on Five basic Birth Practices. Antenatal Workshops handle a variety of subjects to educate mothers-to-be, support them throughout pregnancy, and make sure they are prepared for labor and early parenthood.
In addition to encouraging, supporting, and preparing for delivery, the lessons will assist you in adjusting to being a parent, as well as making you feel confident that "you can do it". We provide evidence-based information and sign-posting to help you navigate your journey, regardless of your birth, feeding, or caring decisions. You can also practice labor positions, breathing techniques, and more with your partners during these sessions, so they can assist you during delivery. Post-partum care and bonding tips are also available to help you enjoy the first weeks at home with your new baby.

Fantastic experience, highly recommended! Anastasia is very experienced and knowledgeable, open to any questions and empathetic. She extends her services as a doula and is also a certified lactation consultant, so super handy! She delivers classes in English and Greek, so anyone can benefit from her course!
I can highly recommend doing the 6 week pregnancy course preparation with Touching Life. Anastasia uses scientific evidence as the basis for all her classes helping future parents to make much more informed decisions.
Lessons are very well structured and with a clear scope, which help connect future mothers in a more conscious way with their bodies and with partners.
In addition, Anastasia is a very warm person so clases are very pleasant to be followed.
Congratulations Anastasia for putting in place such an inspirational program and for making us aware of all this crucial information that is so helpful throughout the pregnancy!
I followed the prenatal courses given by Anastasia online. My experience was very good. Anastasia was very well prepared using not only slides but also answering questions on the spot, explaining them in action and showing us videos. She seems to really like what she does and she knows the topics deeply. Moreover, during the courses it was clear that she brings experience both from Greece and the Netherlands, which is important for international expats, since she can give a different view. It is important to mention that she was always available to answer questions, even outside and after the end of the courses. Finally, I would really recommended the prenatal courses with Anastasia. It was a great experience!
