Imagine a personalized retreat tailored to the two of you and the family you’re becoming as you anticipate your baby's arrival.
Our Private Babymoon options are either a three-day or four-day retreat for expecting couples in their second trimester. We have a carefully curated list of sustainable, highly rated, enchanting BnBs, tranquil boutique inns, and picturesque resorts in British Columbia, Canada. All are set in beautiful locations close to nature, and each establishment delights in providing high standards of aesthetics, a sense of calm, comfort, nourishment, relaxation, and the opportunity for restorative outdoor experiences. Christina facilitates your transformative experiential learning of the skills that matter most to you for birth, breastfeeding, your first weeks and first month as a family.
Personalizing your private retreat is about tailoring it to what best supports you on your unique journey toward greater alignment and deeper resourcing. It serves to honour your love story and your dream of expanding into a family, through meaningful intentional preparation before crossing the threshold into parenthood.
NOTE: We are open to discussing an application to have your babymoon in your early third trimester if you are travelling by car.
YOUR TRANSFORMATIONAL EXPERIENCE
begins before you arrive at your retreat
and
continues with integration after you leave
Before: Receive private virtual coaching with Christina to set your intentions, explore what matters most, and share what would make your retreat extra special to you.
During: Enjoy time for connection, rest, reflection, care, nourishment, and on-site fun, experiential and transformational learning tailored to your intentions and goals.
After: Receive follow-up virtual coaching with Christina to review, ask questions, and help you integrate and embody your learning and personal growth experiences so you feel confident implementing them right away, into birth and beyond.
After your Babymoon Retreat:
Have a clearer sense of what to anticipate in birth, the first hour, the first weeks, and the first month
Feel calmer and more grounded in your body, mind and spirit as birth approaches, thanks to methods and tools you practiced and committed to turn into small but powerful habits
Feel confident about practicing and improving attunement, communication, and reconnecting into an aligned parent team under pressure, not just on good days
Feel deeply connected from having an honest outlook and meaningful plan you commit to implementing with the confidence to adapt it
Feel cared for, rested, and genuinely excited about what's ahead
Feel reassured that support and guidance after the retreat are available to you
Picture this:
You approached birth hand in hand, feeling prepared. You moved through it, staying connected, and arrived on the other side, gazing into your baby’s eyes, reflecting on your experience together.
You're having frequent check-ins with each other, consciously realigning and deepening your devotion to your teamwork as you welcome and care for your newborn.
You're tired, but you're not lost because you’ve been practicing noticing and responding to each other's signals for a while now. You’re wowed by your confidence in navigating new and wild terrain and helping your baby settle when they get upset.
You’re relieved to be breastfeeding your baby with strengthened instincts, relational understanding, and simple yet effective skills. You’re noticing yourself listening to your intuition, embodying a whole-body approach, and integrating supportive practices that resonate and lead you toward the goals you set for yourselves.
You’re hugging each other and welcoming all the feelings because you’re practiced at recognizing vulnerability, anticipating needs, asking for help, pausing, co-regulating, consciously recalibrating, and because you’ve been looking forward to celebrating your family wins, whatever their size.
You’re not surprised that your resilience is being tested every day, and you're thankful you prepared for this with early guidance, resources, and the option for follow-up support!
You’re both loving the feeling of your bond becoming stronger than ever before, rather than being swept away by worry, doubt and overwhelm.

Registered Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist
Prenatal and Perinatal Educator
Founder, Early Beginnings Wellness
Co-Owner, Cedar Guest Cottage
Christina has spent nearly two decades supporting babies, parents, and families through some of life’s most tender transitions.
She is a Registered Craniosacral Therapist (RCST®) and Prenatal & Perinatal Educator (PPNE), trained to work with the whole family, from pregnancy through birth, breastfeeding, and the earliest weeks of life. Her advanced training includes birth trauma intervention, paediatric Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, infant breastfeeding support, and tongue-tie assessment, so she understands not just how to prepare you for birth, but how to support your baby after it.
Her journey began in early childhood education. Starting in 2007, she trained in Waldorf infant and toddler care through the West Coast Institute, studying embryology, birth, the first three years, and healthy attachment. Together with Hadi, she co-ran La Ronde Child Care, which was recognized as an Outstanding Nominee in Cowichan Success By 6’s Champion for Children Awards in 2011.
Outside her work, she feels most at home in nature: writing poetry, hiking, blogging, and capturing quiet moments through photography on wilderness and travel adventures.

Co-Owner, Cedar Guest Cottage
Hadi is a development consultant specializing in small-footprint residential homes in the Cowichan Valley. He brings a deep appreciation for thoughtful design, sustainability, and spaces that feel both practical and beautiful.
When he’s not working, you’ll likely find him in the garden, cooking without a recipe, reading, or enjoying forest hikes and beach walks.
You're both excited to prepare for birth and parenthood together
Your relationship feels solid, and you want to make it even stronger before baby arrives
You want practical, hands-on preparation alongside rest and care
You're open to slowing down, trying new things, and being supported
You value investing in your family's foundation now, rather than playing catch-up later
This is for you if…
Only one of you is interested, and the other is coming along reluctantly. This experience works because you both show up for it.
You're hoping a retreat will fix deeper struggles in your relationship. If you're going through significant conflict, couples counselling is a better first step, and we're happy to point you toward support.
You're looking for a vacation with a few add-on sessions. This is an immersive preparation experience, and the magic comes from engaging fully.
You'd prefer to learn mainly through reading, short workshops or self-paced courses. Our live and on-demand classes may suit you better.

FAQs Couples Ask
-
Most couples join between 20 and 32 weeks, when energy is good and travel feels comfortable. We'll help you choose the best timing.
-
Not at all. Everything is gentle, guided, and adapted to you.
-
Your wellbeing and your baby’s always come first. If your care provider advises against travel, or anything changes that means you can’t attend, just let us know. Everything you’ve paid becomes a credit you can use to reschedule your retreat or apply toward private sessions with Christina, including support after your baby is born. Payments are non-refundable, but your investment will always go toward care for your family.
-
This retreat is designed as dedicated time for just the two of you, so it’s for couples only. We know arranging care for your little one can take some planning, which is why we’re happy to schedule your retreat around dates that work for your family. Your older child will benefit, too: you’ll return rested, reconnected, and ready to welcome their new sibling together.
-
All meals are prepared fresh and tailored to you. Let us know when you’re vegetarian, gluten-free, managing allergies, or simply have foods you love (or can’t face right now) when you book and we’ll plan your menu around it.
-
Yes, and you’ll be in gentle, experienced hands. Christina has advanced training in birth trauma and prenatal and perinatal psychology, and your retreat can include space to acknowledge and integrate past experiences at a pace that feels right for you. There’s no pressure to share more than you want to.
