Silent Birthkeeper: One Year Immersion (2026/2027)

The Silent Birthkeeper is a one-year online immersion into the art of True Midwifery. Over 12 months, we journey through knowledge, presence, and practice — weaving sacred tradition with grounded birth attendance skills. This is a space to soften, to listen, and to remember the quiet power of holding birth. Designed for aspiring and seasoned birthkeepers, doulas, midwives, mothers, and women who feel the call, this journey offers stories, ceremony, and shared wisdom to explore what it truly means to midwife from the heart. Rooted in reverence, presence, and community, The Silent Birthkeeper invites you to clarify your path, deepen your practice, and tend to yourself as you walk this sacred work. This is more than a course — it is a year-long initiation and remembering. Together, we honour the ancient while integrating modern tools that serve birth without disrupting its wisdom, held in an intimate global community of birthkeepers.
