Training parenthood - is that even possible?
Yes, it is with our baby simulators and models.
Learning-by-doing and literally grasp instead of dry theory, real, unforgettable life experience for solid decisions for your own future
Our baby simulators and models have been used for parenting 'internships' and prevention courses for over 20 years.
Young people experience first-hand the changes that come along with having a baby.
Restrictions in everyday life, lack of sleep, responsibility for the baby's prosperity and safety are experiences that cannot be learned in theory. At the same time, the parenting experience is often the first moment at which participants really think about their own future planning: How do I want to organize my life? Do I want children, how many and when? Do I want to live in a relationship and what should that look like? Where and how do I want to live? Who will help me when things get difficult?
What do I have to do now to achieve this?
How do I behave during pregnancy so that my baby is born healthy and what do I do if I feel overloaded?
During the parenting internship, participants are responsible for looking after a baby simulator for a few days and nights. He needs to be fed, changed and comforted, needs to be burped and cries if he is handled roughly. The baby's computer records how well or poorly it was cared for.
Various topics can be discussed when meeting with the participants: health and safety, life plans, development and baby care, alcohol and drugs during pregnancy, shaken baby syndrome and much more.
The pregnancy simulator shows the physical limitations of a pregnant woman in the 3rd trimester and is very suitable for giving boys access to the topic.
The experience of the parenting internship is unforgettable for most young people, influences their personal life and often career choices.
