On top of that I’ve cared for mothers in special psychiatric wards and supported them with their babies postpartum. Which basically means that it can provide for all families and babies, even those in serious situations.”

Like many of those who are looking for an english birth preparation course, Lois is also an expat! And although she has been living and working in Germany since 2011, she still feels very much like a born and bred Scottish Girl.
