Parent
Education
The single highest-leverage investment in a child's health is knowledge in the hands of the parents.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Chitrakshi Tewari, MD (Paediatrics)
Parent education gives you evidence-based answers on feeding, sleep, development and everyday child health, so you can make confident decisions instead of sifting through conflicting advice. Dr. Chitrakshi Tewari runs online one-on-one sessions and workshops built on a simple idea: informed parents raise healthier children.
“Informed, educated parents raise healthier children.” · the core principle behind everything Dr. Chitrakshi does.
Why education is a medical intervention
Parents make hundreds of health decisions before a doctor is ever involved: what to feed, when to worry, how to respond to fever at midnight. Health-literate parents make measurably better calls, seek care at the right time, and are far less vulnerable to the misinformation that floods every parenting feed. That is why education isn't an add-on to my practice; it is the core of it.
Formats that fit real life
Everything is sourced
Every session is built on current guidance from bodies like the WHO, the Indian Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC, translated into practical language and Indian context. When the evidence is uncertain, I say so; when a popular trend contradicts it, I show you the data and let you decide.
Between sessions, my Instagram shares short, evidence-based tips on the questions parents ask most, the same rigour, one reel at a time.
