Berlin’s Nurtured Mama* & Baby Class
“When a baby is born, a mother is too.”
Motherhood is beautiful and a profound transformation. We aren’t meant to navigate it alone.
Berlin’s Nurture Neuroscience Mama* & Baby Class.
A space for connection, growth, and calm in early motherhood.
“We nurture well when we feel nurtured.”
Motherhood changes you. Your brain is literally rewiring from pregnancy onward. It’s normal to feel like a new person - you’re becoming a whole new you.
You deserve a space where you are held, supported, and understood. A space to connect with yourself, your baby, and other mothers* navigating the same transition.
Are you…
- Expecting or caring for a baby (0-7 months) and wondering how early interactions shape emotional resilience and lifelong mental health?
- Craving a class that’s for you and baby - not just singing and playing?
- Looking for a safe space that will empower you to lean into your intuition?
- Looking for honest conversations about the realities of early motherhood?
- Looking for infant development education?
- Wanting nourishing practices that support your mental health?
Not your Typical Mama* & Baby Class
Singing and baby play classes are sweet, fun, and important — but they often skip the most essential part of early motherhood:
Support for the mother’s* emotional wellbeing and brain rewiring.
Nurture Neuroscience Classes focus on nurturing the two of you — your relationship and your wellbeing. These first-of-their-kind gatherings are based on the bestselling book The Nurture Revolution by Greer Kirshenbaum, PhD and led by me - a Nurture Neuroscience Practitioner and doula.
What makes these classes truly different:
They’re grounded in neuroscience, not outdated advice or trends.
They honour the mother’s* emotional and mental health, not just baby milestones.
They help you understand how your baby’s brain actually develops
They support your own brain changes in matrescence
They give you practical tools for co-regulation, nervous system support, and secure attachment.
They offer real conversations - not small talk, but meaningful connection with other mothers*.
These are the only classes in Berlin designed to have an intentional, healing, connection-rich journey for both baby and mother*.
Why the Early Years Matter
Both babies and mothers experience incredible brain changes in the early years. Nurture forms the circuits that support resilience, emotional regulation, and lifelong wellbeing.
You’re not just raising a baby. You’re growing a securely attached, confident human and becoming a new version of yourself. This transition is huge, and it deserves recognition.
Join a Nurture Neuroscience Mama* & Baby Class and feel calm, confident, and connected.
*Classes are open to anyone who identifies as a mother* or primary caretaker, regardless of gender identity and family structures.
It’s powerful and healing when a motherhood* journey is seen and supported.

What Mothers Are Saying
“I’m a first-time mum and felt I had a pretty good idea of how things would go and how motherhood would feel. But when I came across Kristina’s course, the way she spoke about nurturing immediately clicked for me — that it’s such a core part of parenting and something that deeply shapes both us and our baby for the future.
I’ve loved sharing stories with other mums each week and hearing different experiences, while Kristina gently guides the sessions with thoughtful questions, discussions and really helpful advice. The conversations, inspired by The Nurture Revolution by Dr Greer, feel grounding and reassuring, and I always come away having learned something new and knowing it’s all based on up-to-date research.
I’m really glad I joined. Kristina is warm, welcoming, and very thoughtful — right down to the little snacks she brings for us mums (which are always appreciated!).”
— Jane“Kristina has created an open and welcoming space where it’s easy to connect with other moms. The topic was engaging, and the materials she prepared added real value, making it a meaningful way to explore and reflect on the motherhood journey together.”
