Support for Mama & Baby in All Stages
Do you have a desire to use plants and natural remedies to support you and your baby? Herbs are incredibly useful to support the health of mothers before, during and after pregnancy, as well as their infants. Whether you are a midwife, training to support births as a doula, or simply wanting to nourish your body and address common issues you expect to face during a normal pregnancy, this detailed course will provide you with specific and practice guidance in using herbal medicine.
A Course You Can Relate To
As an herbalist of 30 years teaching and sharing the chemistry, anatomy and physiology of herbal health, Holly Bellebuono also had the pleasure (and pain) of having two babies at home with a midwife. Holly relies on decades of herbal medicine research, herb growing, and first-hand use of botanical therapies to design this Herbs For Mama and Baby Course. The course is available as a stand-alone course and is also included in Holly Bellebuono’s comprehensive Community Herbalist Certification Program.
The course is yours to keep forever—a treasure-trove of useful information, photographs, recipes, and instructions to refer to for every stage including pregnancy, labor and delivery, post-partum, and infant and child-care. Most women find they refer to this course as a refresher with every child, as each pregnancy is different.
Learning to heal with herbs and natural strategies is one of the smartest things you can do for your own health, for your loved ones, and as part of a career path. Herbal remedies and nutritive foods complement the best therapies and can be used in a wide range of situations, both personal and professional.

I feel so at ease of being me, and completely accepted, because we all come with the same purpose of learning gentle ways to heal ourselves and heal our communities, so I feel just completely at home. Holly is a plant-angel in the world. I didn’t know anything about her, but I got hold of the book Women Healers of the World, that’s how I came to be here. When I read that, I felt connected to my grandma and the people in my family who came from that part of the world in South America. I wanted to meet her! I feel very blessed to be here and learning directly from her.

Holly is so approachable and graceful and gentle. She has a wealth of knowledge and a smart mind. I love the history that she brings, with the botanical names and the Latin foundations of words and herbs and names….She’s also so grounded in the relationships with the plants, and also so flexible with the application of the usage of plants for medicine. It’s a gift to learn from her.
