Hi, I’m Lauren, founder of The Babymoon Lab. When I was pregnant, I adored both of my babymoons. They were such special moments to pause, reconnect, and soak up the calm before life changed forever. But honestly, I remember wishing someone had gathered all the insider tips for me — the best places to stay, what to do (and what to skip), and how to make it all feel effortless and magical. That’s why I created The Babymoon Lab. It’s your go-to space for discovering dreamy destinations, beautiful hotels, and thoughtful experiences designed especially for mums-to-be. My goal is to help you plan a babymoon that feels like a deep breath — full of joy, connection, and those precious memories you’ll treasure forever. I’m originally from The Netherlands, but I’ve lived in many beautiful places, including Mallorca, which completely stole my heart. Travel has always been part of my story, and now I get to share that love by helping other women create their own unforgettable journeys before baby arrives.
