The intensive three-day workshop will help the participant:

  • Recognize the significance of chidbirth in the life of a woman.
  • Demonstrate at least three prental and postpartum support skills.

Bait AlQurain

We passed by Bait AlQurain today with the kids and it was an amazing, well prepared event. As we walked into the house I was overwhelmed with feelings. I can’t believe that it has been 21 years already.

Pass by and take your kids with you. It is a great chance for them to see a part of the history of their country and the unity and strength of their people.
