Nurturing your nervous system — from preconception through birth and beyond

81 Bruce Street, Kitchener
Preparing for birth can feel overwhelming — you deserve real information.
Between appointments, conflicting advice, and decisions to make, it’s easy to feel like you’re navigating pregnancy and birth on your own. Join Dr. Gordon McPherson-Rayner and Dr. Lesley Jacklin for a free workshop exploring the role your nervous system plays at every stage — from preparing your body before conception, through pregnancy, and into life with your new baby.
We’ll talk through what a well-supported nervous system means for you and your baby, and practical steps you can take to feel more prepared and confident heading into birth.
Spots are limited — please register in advance.
What You’ll Learn
The Nervous System’s Role in Pregnancy & Birth
Learn how your nervous system supports your body through every stage of pregnancy, labor, and recovery — and why caring for it matters as much as anything else on your checklist.
Preparing Your Body & Mind in Advance
From preconception habits to what to expect along the way, we’ll cover practical steps to help you feel informed and confident heading into birth — whatever your plan looks like.
Supporting Your Baby’s Transition
Explore natural, gentle ways to support your newborn as they adjust to life outside the womb — and how caring for your own nervous system supports theirs too.
