Growing Through Experience... Nurturing Knowledge
The birth of a child is a time of profound transformation. The physiological transformation of the birthing parent and the infant, the transformation of the family unit, and the transformation of communities and society as a whole. Knowledge of the physiological and psychological changes that happen during birth is critical, and our understanding of this amazing process is growing rapidly. Along with respect for the intense biological changes that are happening during this vulnerable period, respectful, kind, culturally sensitive and evidence based care results in families who feel valued and empowered as they start the journey of parenthood. This has far reaching implications for the physical and mental health for the parent(s) and child. As care providers, it's important that we have a clear understanding of the potential impact of our practices.
This year we have a fantastic program rich with transferable and practice-changing knowledge and skills, that will allow you to help your clients navigate the profound transformation of birth. Learn the latest about maternal guilt and shame in the perinatal period, breastfeeding as a complex system, the challenges of giving birth while on the autism spectrum, ACE testing during pregnancy, the intersections of birth and trauma, perinatal mental health and women of colour, the transition to parenthood in LGBTQ families, informed consent and client rights, how to push to avoid stress urinary incontinence, and so much more.
Final day for all non-member delegates to view presentations. GOLD Annual Members will be able to view presentations until January 10, 2020. Become a member for extended viewing time!
