Premium Coaching for Your Very Own Personalized Journey from Pregnancy to Parenthood
Sacred Foundation Coaching
Emotional, Somatic & Spiritual Support Before Pregnancy
These coaching session bundles offer holistic guidance for the whole person—body, mind, and spirit.
You’ll be met with deep listening, secure attachment-based coaching, nervous system regulation practices, resilience-building tools, and space to explore the emotional terrain that often goes unseen.
Our Premium Coaching & Retreat Experience is designed for discerning expectant couples who are seeking more than just information or support. You’re seeking a sanctuary – a space to deepen your love, align your values, and prepare for the extraordinary life you’re about to welcome.
This high-touch hybrid program includes private online coaching before and after your retreat so you’re supported from preparation through integration, every step of the way. Your two options are:
Early Beginnings Wellness
Sanctuary Experience
Stay at our dedicated Cedar Guest Cottage accommodation designed to support you and personalize a reflective, fun, adventurous, and meaningful journey into parenthood for you. Experience our signature program in this charming private comfortable setting close to nature. This space is ideal for couples who wish to have their stay and learning experience enhanced by the surrounding beauty of the Cowichan Valley located on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.
Premium Curated
Sanctuary Experience
Step away from daily life into a carefully curated Airbnb sanctuary near you, so you can immerse yourselves into your preparation journey. This unique and flexible alternative provides you with deluxe accommodation and location options for your retreat and learning experience. It’s just another fun way to get you excited about setting time aside together so you can get focused on deepening your connection as a couple while building practical skills for birth, breastfeeding, and early parenting.
