Feedback from our Mothers
Thank you so much sister. Your sessions helped me a lot. You have covered everything from giving birth to postpartum health especially diet plan. I felt more prepared. You told me to ask doubts anytime. I have followed all your breathing techniques, relaxation and visualization for handling pain and coping with contractions. My labor journey was stress less and I was more confident because of you. I’m happy to be part of your sessions.

Pregnancy care class is very useful for me. At first I am afraid of what will be going to happen at the time of delivery but now I don’t have that worry, because through this class I learned a lot about pregnancy. I had more doubts and confusion at first but now they are nothing because you explained it in a detailed and understandable way. I and my husband had gained a lot of confidence and courage through this pregnancy care classes.

Pregnancy is god’s precious gift and also it’s the perfect time for her to enjoy motherhood. Yes!!! I enjoyed every cycle of it and my biggest support for this to happen was my trainer Mrs. Gayathri Suresh. All the topics were covered very well and she makes us more comfortable in learning and understanding them. We used to ask too many doubts and we got it cleared every time, not only during sessions but whenever we are bothered by anything we used to call her and get it sorted immediately. It’s so comfortable for us to attend that too in our convenient time and batch. I felt this course is necessary for every pregnant women and it’ll be more effective if you attend it as a couple. Mrs. Gayathri gives us lot of tips and it works well, you can feel it post birth too. Really we are gifted to have this course at the right time. I would like to recommend this course to my friends and family and feel so happy for that.
