About

My name is Michal Levy and I'm a certified childbirth educator. I teach childbirth preparation courses in Givat Zeev and Jerusalem.

I am married and have 5 children, all born in Jerusalem. I started my birth training in 2005, when I studied to become a birth doulah. At the same time, I also studied reflexology and pregnancy massage. In 2008 I trained to become a certified childbirth educator.

My view of birth is that birth is a normal, healthy process. It's a pity that most births happen in the hospital, which is associated with illness and many not nice things. I think that every woman has the inherent ability to listen to her body and work with it, and know what's best for her and her baby.

In my courses, the focus is on the normalcy of the birth process. Being prepared is the main key in having a positive birth experience. We simply cannot hand over our births and bodies to midwives and doctors, we can and should be an active partner in the management of birth. I teach tool that help take back control in the birthing room, as well as coping techniques and other essential tips and tricks.

During the course, I also discuss basic parenting and breastfeeding.
