A Boutique Sanctuary for Expecting Expat Mothers

Step away from the noise and into deep connection.

The Pregnant Pause Retreat offers an intimate, all-inclusive experience for international mothers preparing to give birth in Switzerland.

Nestled in the stunning Bavarian countryside, just two hours from Zurich, this retreat combines luxury relaxation, expert birth preparation, and lifelong community building — in a safe, nurturing environment.

Designed exclusively for expat women, you’ll leave feeling grounded, confident, and fully supported for the journey ahead.

Welcome to the Pause Your Heart Has Been Craving

Pregnancy is a threshold — not just into motherhood, but into a new version of yourself.

At this Pregnant Pause Retreat, we offer you something rare:

 

Three days to connect, nourish, and prepare your mind, body, and spirit before birth.

Nestled in the Bavarian mountains, just two hours from Zurich, this intimate, all-inclusive retreat is designed exclusively for expat mothers preparing for birth in a foreign country.

 

This is not a hospital checklist.

 

This is a reawakening.

What Makes This Pregnant Pause Unique?

1. Boutique & Highly Personalized

2. Expat-Specific Expertise

3. Birth Without Borders: Cultural Workshops

4. Built-In Sisterhood for Life Abroad

5. Mind-Body Preparation with Swiss Experts

Unlike crowded birth retreats, our group is limited to just 10 mothers to ensure individual attention.

You’ll receive 1:1 support, personalized guidance, and space to truly connect with your needs.

We understand the emotional complexity of navigating pregnancy and birth away from “home.”

This retreat is crafted especially for international women in Switzerland, blending practical knowledge with deep emotional care.

Gain insider insight into Swiss healthcare norms, maternity practices, and postpartum realities.

Feel empowered, not overwhelmed, as you prepare to birth abroad with clarity and confidence.

Motherhood can feel isolating in a new country.

Here, you’ll begin friendships that continue well beyond the retreat — with an optional postpartum Whatsapp group, reunion meetups, and ongoing support.

Every session is led by experienced, Switzerland-based maternity mentors, yoga instructors, and birth specialists — blending emotional empowerment with expert prenatal care.
