Heart health for moms: could a childcare center program make a difference?
NCT ID NCT07724821
First seen Jul 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026
Summary
This trial tests whether a 10-week program called MomHeartHealth2.0 can help mothers of young children improve their cardiovascular health. The program includes weekly phone coaching, in-person group sessions at childcare centers, and referrals to medical care and social services. Researchers will enroll 50 mothers in New York City to see if the approach is feasible and acceptable.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a 10-week behavioral program including phone coaching, in-person group sessions, and referrals to clinical care and social resources
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could offer a scalable way to improve cardiovascular health in mothers of young children through community-based support.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small feasibility study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The program relies on self-reported measures and may not lead to lasting health changes.
