Not a big company with a CEO and a CFO, but a small team with a real passion for birth care. For 10 years we have been helping parents-to-be start their birth together, with confidence and a good dose of humour.

How it started
After 7 years of working as a midwife, Aline felt something was missing in how parents-to-be prepare for birth. She saw it every day in practice. She found the ‘missing link’ at the birth of her first niece, where her sister used hypnobirthing. What she saw made a big impression: her sister’s trust in herself and her body, the calm she radiated, and a partner who knew exactly what he could do.
Those empowering elements, combined with midwifery knowledge, became the foundation of Mom & co. What started 10 years ago as one course has grown into courses in Amsterdam, Haarlem, Breda and online, and thousands of couples have prepared with us.
Realistic, full of humour and down to earth. For your dream birth, and for when things go differently than hoped.
“Taking charge together, and standing in your power. Whatever happens.”
That is what we have been doing it for, for 10 years.
The team behind Mom & co
The four of us keep Mom & co running, together with a team of experienced teachers.
Aline
Founder
Aline trained as a midwife. At her sister’s birth she saw what confidence and calm can do, and that is how Mom & co started 10 years ago. She wrote the course and still looks after its content. She and René have a son, Kobe.
Lonneke
Midwife & head trainer
Lonneke is a midwife and the face of many of our courses. She makes the schedule and takes care of the locations. Outside Mom & co you can find her at festivals with her pop-up ‘Club Zeven Alles Geven’.
René
Day-to-day management & media
René keeps the day-to-day running, so there is a good chance he answers your email. As cameraman and editor he made all the videos, audio and podcasts for our courses. And as Kobe’s dad he knows what it is like to be there as a partner.
Anna-Nora
Backoffice
Anna-Nora makes sure everything behind the scenes is in order, from your booking to your questions by email. She is also a yoga teacher and massage therapist, so relaxation runs in her blood.
