Mammy Lis- LIS Maternity Club

April 3, 2025

Essential support for expectant and new mothers

MammyLis is a maternity club for women and their partners throughout pregnancy, during delivery, and into the baby's first year of life. Directed by professionals in medicine and psychology, MammyLis offers a range of support activities under one roof, including prenatal classes, personal meetings with midwives, one-on-one breastfeeding planning, and delivery room tours.

Pregnancy, birth and the first months of parenthood are an exciting but emotionally charged period. Parents typically have many questions, and possibly some insecurities as well.

With this in mind, the maternity club is designed for expectant parents setting out on the amazing journey into parenthood. At Mammy Lis, individuals and couples can find answers to all their questions and receive other information they require.

The Mammy Lis Team

The Mammy Lis team includes a multidisciplinary staff of doctors, midwives, credentialed breastfeeding counselors (International Board Certified Lactation Consultants - IBCLC), physiotherapists, and psychologists specializing in women's physical and emotional health. Staff members are available to offer guidance, and help with every question and problem-in a sensitive and supportive environment.
Together expectant parents and the Lis team can help ensure that parents’ experiences are positive, leading into parenthood with ease and enjoyment.

Personal meeting with a midwife/delivery nurse

The objective is to help the mother-to-be choose the best approach for her individual needs and to address her specific childbearing questions.
During the meeting, the topics covered are specific to the mother’s needs, and may include healthy lifestyle during pregnancy, care in the delivery room, natural childbirth, epidural administration, caesarian section delivery, and initial baby care immediately after birth.
