Meeting up with some of our program beneficiaries gives us so much joy
So what do we talk about? 😁
The small talks about having a new born and the big talks about antenatal, delivery and post delivery care.
We are making change happen for women and children in Nigeria 🙂
Still trying to understand why we do what we do as an organisation? This @BBCAfrica video with our founder @pjlalah in some of the communities we work will tell you why. #MaternalHealth#SDGs#SDG3
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed a lot about our work, how we interact with health workers as well as the woman we serve across rural communities but our mission remains the same.
We are here to make that positive change happen for mother’s and their babies everywhere ❤️
Today we celebrate the work of the United Nations in promoting health and wellbeing, fostering peace and equality and promoting sustainable development across nations.
Our world is certainly a better place because of the #UN#UNDAY2019#74thAnniversary
In every crisis, children are the most affected. Climate change impacts their health and general wellbeing negatively.
It is our collective responsibility to ensure our environment is safe, secure and healthy.
In anticipation of the #UnitedNationsDay2019#ClimateActionForPeace
Capacity strengthening of human resource for health, especially in rural communities where limited skilled care is available cannot be overemphasized.
Through continued trainings, we ensure that women in as many communities as possible can access quality maternal healthcare.
Through our community sensitization programs, we encourage pregnant women to engage in behaviors that reduce pregnancy-related health risks. Antenatal attendance in health centers is also emphasized to ensure women are adequately monitored throughout the period of their pregnancy
Basic newborn resuscitation is a training that every birth attendant must consistently undergo.
When basic resuscitation is done correctly newborns in communities with limited skilled care and resources are saved from brain damage and death from birth asphyxia.
Working hard to ensure women get more opportunities to live, watch their babies grow, take up leadership positions and contribute to the economic prosperity of their nation. #MyMandelaLegacy#YALI2019@YALINetwork@WashFellowship
Kangaroo care should not only be practiced by women. Fathers should be encouraged to participate as this promotes early bonding between father and child.

Birth attendants everywhere must be empowered with the right tools and information to help them do more for the women and babies in their care.
We are @brownbutton_org and we are here for that mother and her baby... #maternalhealth#SDG3
Two days to go to the commencement of our module 2 training and the recruitment of new agents for our delivery kit. Wondering what module one looked like last month in the communities we worked? We gat you!
"Maternal death is a rare event in Nigeria"
What is the possibility of hearing this statement in your lifetime? Is zero maternal death is possible in Nigeria?

At a #GES2019 session on unlocking the full potential of #women in #entrepreneurship, Adepeju Jaiyeoba (@Pjlalah) of Mother Delivery Kits (@brownbutton_org) spoke to the entrepreneur-investor relationship: "Funding has to become more gender blind. Funding has to trust us."
In this week's #NHWTorchlight piece, @valentineiwen focuses on @brownbutton_org, an NGO that provides safe delivery and contraceptive options, maternal health tools to health facilities & training of healthcare providers: https://t.co/zCVRImJ1ne #GivingBirthInNigeria
