About the Trainers

Rynette has a diploma in Childbirth Education and is also a Lactation Counsellor and Babywearing Consultant. As the main trainer for the workshop, she combines her expert knowledge and experiences to offer couples a comprehensive overview of birth and beyond. As every pregnancy and birth is different, Rynette believes in educating parents on the process of birthing in Singapore, so they are empowered to make informed decisions when the time arises. She also hopes to equip parents and caregivers with the necessary knowledge and skills to help them ease baby’s transition from the Womb out to the World. Rynette had drug-free natural births for all four children and hopes to encourage other mothers who desire to have a drug-free natural birth to do the same. As a Lactation Counsellor, she also understands the worries and concerns expectant mothers have with breastfeeding, and is passionate about helping mothers get off to a good start on their breastfeeding journey. 

Jeremy is a hands-on father and supportive husband. He believes that husbands can do more to play an active role in the birth and labour process to better support their wives during pregnancy and postpartum. Having graduated from the course “Husband-Coached” Childbirth, he empowers fellow dads to play the role of a doula (or birth support) to coach and encourage their wives through labour pains and breastfeeding struggles. Jeremy brings the partner’s perspective for what to expect during the birth and labour process, both administratively and emotionally. He is currently in the midst of getting his diploma in Childbirth Education, so he can reach out to more like-minded dads and create a positive impact amongst fathers! 

Together, Rynette and Jeremy work seamlessly together to educate and empower parents, and to equip them for the journey ahead!
