Pontibus

Pontibus is a natural-minded parenting and child-health practice founded by Inge Scheper, a youth nurse. Its name means “bridges” in Latin, reflecting Inge’s aim to connect conventional and anthroposophic care. The practice supports parents as they navigate the changing, often demanding experience of raising a child, from a baby’s arrival onward.

Pontibus offers a consultation bureau and children’s clinic, as well as guidance for parenting questions. Its approach encourages parents to gather information, reflect on their choices and build confidence in their own judgement and intuition. Rather than relying solely on advice from others or social media, parents are supported in making considered decisions that feel right for their family. The practice recognises that both children and parents change over time, and that parenting choices may need to be revisited as they grow together.

Through its services and information, Pontibus aims to help families find their own way of raising children and supporting health.
