| Qu’apporte votre initiative aux familles bilingues / internationales? |
Living in Japan as a foreigner is sometimes difficult specially when you're pregnant or have a small baby and don't speak the language.
These meetings can be very helpful, not only when you are expecting, but also during the first few months with a new-born baby. You can ask questions, talk over any worries or difficulties you have, not only with a midwife but with other "experienced" parents as well. | ||||||||||||
