## About Childbirth Education Program

### Why I Created This Program

I know what it feels like to be excited yet anxious as your due date gets closer. Too many moms tell me they feel lost and unprepared, and honestly, all that random gyan (advice) from everyone just adds to the confusion. I want to help you cut through the noise and actually feel ready for your own unique birth.

### What You’ll Actually Learn

- No chasing the “perfect” birth here. Whether it’s with pain relief or a C-section, you’ll get evidence-based birth education so you know your options.
- Get hands-on with simple ways to help your baby get into the best position.
- Learn to spot real signs of labor (no more guessing!).
- We’ll practice labor pain management techniques—movement, breathing, and even little tricks like the Double Hip Squeeze for relief.
- I break down medical interventions so nothing catches you off guard later.

### How My Program Works

- Live Prep Workshop (for couples): 2.5 hours online, with both you and your partner practicing together. Includes a workbook, session recording, and access to our private moms-to-be group.
- On-Demand Program: Go at your own pace. Includes the full workshop recording, 6 prenatal yoga for third trimester sessions, and 6 months’ access to everything.

### Real Support for You & Your Partner

Partners get specific training to become your best support—no more standing around lost in the delivery room. You’ll also get practical tools: cheat sheets, templates, and a hospital bag checklist, so you’re not scrambling last minute.

I don’t promise a “perfect” birth, but I will help you feel calm, prepped, and confident to handle whatever comes your way.

[Bharti Goel](https://mytribe.in/herhealthcareathome)

### My story

Never thought I’d end up here, honestly. I used to be all about business school life at IIM and NTU, then bam, motherhood flipped my world. My 44-hour labor (yes, you read that right) ended in an emergency C-section. No one really prepares you for that stuff. After Nyra was born, yoga wasn’t enough – my body craved more. Mixing functional strength with yoga changed everything for me. Now, I’m just a mom who’s done the messy parts and wants to help you feel ready for whatever comes.

### My work

- **Prenatal Yoga, Postpartum Fitness, Fertility Yoga**: I offer on-demand Prenatal Yoga for each trimester, Postpartum Core Recovery, Fertility Yoga for couples, and a childbirth and labor preparation workshop.
- **My Approach**: It’s not about chasing a ‘normal delivery’. I help you feel strong, mobile, and pain-free, breaking that fear-tension-pain loop.
- **How My Programs Work**: My bite-sized video lessons and cheat sheets let you practice anytime. You’ll get a supportive mom community too. Consistency over intensity, always.
- **Who This Is For**: If you’re anxious about labor, healing post-birth, or prepping for pregnancy and want clear, real guidance, I’ve got you.
