We believe that the high mortality rate of mothers and infants in developing countries can be reduced by increasing access to maternal health information during pregnancy and increasing uptake of postnatal care services after child birth , especially for the first time mothers.
Our origin dates back to 2015 when our mentor a leading village health care team member in Uganda passed down to us the vision for an alternative health care workforce source in Uganda, Teheca has since evolved to focus on increasing uptake of postnatal care services for mothers not only in Uganda but the whole of sub Saharan Africa through education of mothers via mobile applications like SMS, USSD, smartphone application and social media about its importances as well as coming up with new and convenient ways for mothers to access postnatal care services.
Today Teheca is focused on providing good care for new parents by connecting new parents to nurses for in home and hospital care services after childbirth.. Are you becoming a parent soon, Book a nurse via Teheca app. DOWNLOAND our APP on Google play

The mama bag was helpful, I had all my delivery and hospital items in one place and didnt need to keep sending someone to buy. My advise is to include code clumps instead of cord ties as, the tie gave me challenges. Told alot of people about it.
Am someone who always wants to be prepared and not be ambushed, so i bought for my madam so as to be prepared for and post delivery
Thanks So much Team Teheca. I received my package just in tym. And u know what , in a few hrs, i delivered a bouncing baby boy.
Thanks for ur services.
I am so impressed with this Product that I will come to Uganda to see how you can establish yourself in South Sudan
I was pleased with the teheca pack you guys sent me. The lady who brought it to me was so warm and comforting considering i was like 8 months gone and hated everyone. The doc who delivered my baby was impressed and you set me off well. Thank you so much, i will totally recommend ou and my baby is now 5 months and so adorable(aren't they all?) Am going to attach his pic for you and for the lady who brought me the pack. By the way I still use your bag, very helpful with all the kafunkunali I have to carry around.
