Morning Star, Auroville’s birth and wellness centre, has published its 2024-2025 Newsletter. Morning Star’s team offers professional birth and women’s wellness care in a serene, respectful environment. It raises awareness about birth, empowers women, includes fathers and families in birth and shares knowledge with hospitals in Pondicherry and India. Services include consultations, childbirth preparation and education classes. Morning Star also does pioneering research on fathers’ roles in childbirth, for which it was commended at the recent Better Birthing Experience Conference in Hyderabad.
Morning Star has also started “Little Red Feet” (LRF), creating a supportive space for parents, babies and toddlers. This activity of Morning Star encourages socialisation, play, and child development, as well as support and fun for parents. The “Golden 1000 Days” championed by UNICEF and others around the world, recognises the first 1000 days of a child's life, from conception to their second birthday, as the most critical period for growth and development and LRF offers space for that.
Morning Star recently received all the approvals and NOC for its Morning Star Building which it hopes to start soon.
