We envision a society in which psychological support before, during, and after childbirth is regarded as a natural and essential part of care. Discover what drives us, the values that shape our work, and the direction we aim to move toward together.

Every year, around 23,000 parents in Switzerland are affected by perinatal mental health disorders – and too many go without the support they need. Discover the five levels on which we work and how we create sustainable change.

What have we achieved in recent years? Our annual reports, financial statements, and association documents provide a transparent insight into our projects and development.

Behind Periparto are people who know this journey from the inside – individuals with lived experience and dedicated professionals who share a passion for supporting families through perinatal mental health challenges. Get to know us!

Sustainable impact is created through collaboration. Together with committed partners and supporters, we work to ensure that perinatal mental health receives the recognition it deserves.
Periparto Switzerland is the only nationwide non-profit organisation specialising in perinatal mental health. As an independent point of contact and centre of expertise, we support those affected, empower healthcare professionals, raise awareness among employers and actively contribute to destigmatisation – because no one should have to face the psychological challenges of this pivotal life stage alone, or feel ashamed of their emotions.
