We don't just lecture; we facilitate hands-on learning that allows health workers to navigate complex situations—from identifying nutritional needs to counseling on safe family planning—with confidence, empathy, and evidence-based knowledge. Systemic change in maternal health begins with the people on the ground. Whether you are an NGO or a community health initiative, we offer specialized training to help your team provide the support that families truly need. **What We Cover** Our curriculum is built on years of field experience and is delivered in multiple languages (English, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Hindi) to ensure the message sticks. We focus on: * **Breastfeeding Support:** Teaching staff how to help mothers with latching, positioning, and overcoming common early challenges. * **Newborn Safety:** Practical training on recognizing signs of illness, safe vaccination protocols, and identifying conditions like CHD early. * **Maternal Mental Health:** Techniques for identifying postpartum depression and anxiety, and how to offer a listening, non-judgmental space. * **Navigating Systems:** Helping health workers understand how to guide families through hospital protocols and make informed choices. **Our Approach** We move away from textbook theory. Our sessions with partners like the Sangama and Gubbachi Learning Center involve interactive discussions, case studies, and practical demonstrations. We find that when health workers—from ASHA workers to ANM staff—are empowered with the right information, they can bridge the gap between medical systems and the community. If you represent a community organization and want to ensure your frontline team is equipped with the best possible maternal care practices, let's connect. ## About Bangalore Birth Network We are Bangalore Birth Network, a community of mothers, doctors, and advocates dedicated to birth justice.
