THE NEURODIVERGENT BIRTH PLANNING COURSE

Mockup of the Neurodivergent Birth Planning Course with Alix Myers of Tender.ly.

Launching August 2025

A self-paced, sensory-friendly course designed to help you build a low-stress, customized birth plan—with supports that actually work for how your brain operates.

✔️ Visual + sensory planning tools to help you picture and plan your ideal environment
✔️ Templates and scripts to reduce decision fatigue and help you advocate clearly
✔️ Tips for navigating providers and partners in ways that feel safe, firm, and respectful
✔️ Built-in executive function supports like checklists, pacing guides, and editable PDFs

Created by Alix Myers, doula and founder of Tender.ly, this course was built by and for neurodivergent birthers. Whether you’re ADHD, autistic, PDA, anxious, or somewhere else on the ND spectrum, this course meets you where you are—with practical tools, affirming language, and realistic pacing to help you feel resourced and confident.

You won’t just get information—you’ll get a clear plan. Each module walks you through an area of birth prep, layering knowledge with reflection prompts and regulated decision-making frameworks. By the end, you’ll have a complete birth plan, a postpartum support map, and a deeper understanding of your nervous system, boundaries, and needs.

Perfect if you want to move at your own pace, skip the fluff, and still feel guided, supported, and seen.

  • Absolutely. Whether you’re birthing at home, in a hospital, or at a birth center, this course will help you shape your birth plan around your unique needs and preferences. You'll learn how to prepare for each environment—how to communicate clearly with providers, how to bring sensory tools into a hospital setting, and how to create calm even when plans change. It’s about helping you feel rooted and ready, wherever you give birth.
