About us:
We are Mom & co
Who we are? Well, this is us!
Here we are. Not a mega million dollar corporation with a CEO and CFO, but three inspired people with a considerable passion for a fun, interesting movement within birth care.
Aline, pictured above, is the “founder” of Mom & co and wrote the original course. Aline is a midwife, mother of Kobe, with a passion for personal development which is also reflected in the Mom & co pregnancy courses. She oversees the complete course content and trains new franchisees.
Lonneke, bottom left, manages our “headquarters” in Amsterdam. She’s an experienced midwife and our head trainer, in charge of schedules and arranges everything with our midwife-trainers. Lonneke is also a part-time presenter and can be found at various festivals with her pop-up mini-club “Club Seven Giving Everything.
René is married to Aline, father of Kobe and does the day-to-day running of Mom & co, so don’t be surprised if he answers your mail. Originally a cameraman/editor, René studied journalism. Before he started working at Mom & co fulltime, he was already working on video’s, podcasts, audio files, blogs and text we use in our pregnancy classes. That’s why it all sounds -and looks – so delicious, if we do say so ourselves 😉
Together with Rolien Magendans, René and Aline also make much-loved podcasts: Adem In, Adem Uit full of birth stories and, because we can’t get enough, also Mom & co – the Podcast.
Why are we doing this?
Bridging the gap between care and expectant parents.
The “missing link” arose for Aline when she witnessed hypnobirthing during the birth of her first niece. What she saw there made a big impression: The confidence Aline’s sister had in herself and her body, the calm she exuded, her partner who knew what he could do, it was simply amazing. It is the combination of these empowering elements and her midwifery knowledge that became the basis of what Mom & co has become.
