The current global pandemic due to #covid19 saw us put on halt some of our services.

However we acknowledge that babies are still being conceived and parents are navigating a pregnancy journey.

@CotdKE @PerinatalKE @AmbikaShiva @KendyNjeru There is no mother and child (maternal healthcare) without maternal mental health. This conversation should be ongoing - Kenya ought to offer holistic maternal healthcare services.

A4. #climbKE #COTD2020

[Joyce Wachira @JoyceW_Wachira]

@CotdKE @AmbikaShiva @PerinatalKE everybody needs to attend. Mental health is the backbone of our health. Take a photo of yourself holding a seedling; A previous climb t-shirts or a white/black t-shirt works. The idea is to share the hope of emerging stronger as we pursue light.

[Kendy Njeru @KendyNjeru]

@JoyceW_Wachira @CotdKE @PerinatalKE @AmbikaShiva This year COTD is celebrated virtually due to the restrictions of COVID. Basically participants are to share their sprouted seedling as a sign of coming out of the darkness into the light.

[Perinatal Services @PerinatalKE]

@CotdKE @AmbikaShiva @JoyceW_Wachira @VivianGaiko A3. The #climbout #climbKE is really needed more so during this pandemic period where pregnant and new parents may be anxious about the safety and well-being of their families and may be at risk of mental health struggles. It helps them knowing there's help in case they need it.

[Perinatal Services @PerinatalKE]

@JoyceW_Wachira @CotdKE @AmbikaShiva @KendyNjeru True! Safety of all participants comes first. The #homemadeclimb idea by the #cotd2020 #climbKE climb leader, .@AmbikaShiva, is just perfect for this season.
