Thanks to you all who pioneered this noble calling and those who have supported the activities.GOD BLESS.YOU ALL. I am a beneficially of your initiative and I assure you in Nakuru, Kenya, we are spreading the Education like wild fire since 5 of us were trained in 2010. and formed a community group known as NAKURU CHILD BIRTH SUPPORT WOMEN GROUP,with the goal of empowering pregnant women and their families through providing adequate knowledge about pregnancy, delivery and post natal care of mother and her newborn. We also aim at reducing the attitude gap that exists between the pregnant women and the health workers due to inadequate communication. we have established two training sites among the poor urban communities who are not able to pay.We have salvaged families at the verge of disintegrating due to ignorance. Our trainees time in the delivery units has dramatically reduced as they get to the health facility while in true and established labour.The reports we are receiving are encouraging as they are very cooperative throughout and teach other labouring mothers on what to do and the benefits of doing so. Home deliveries are decreasing within our catchment areas. The demand for our services is high, but challenges are many, particularly finances.Thanks to Jennifer and team who supported us in March 2012 for awareness creation among the health workers and breastfeeding mothers who had completed Lamaze training and had babies.NO MATERNAL NO NEONATAL DEATHS due to ignorance among the moms who completed training. HALLELUIAH. Chairperson,
