The Zoe Project

in #family7 years ago

I have the privilege of being part of this amazing team of people. As a registered Doula I help women as a birth companion and I love it! Nothing beats the joy of a successful birth and a healthy, happy mom and baby. I met our very first foster baby through my ministry at MOU.
I also teach a weekly antenatal class.

Here is a video with more info on our project.

"The Zoe Project is Cape Town-based non profit that strives to nurture, educate and empower pregnant women, new moms and their families. Through a holistic, hands-on approach, the programme works to ensure that women and their babies at the Retreat Maternity Obstetric Unit (MOU) are supported, loved and empowered during and post-pregnancy. Tracey Aitken (who founded the project in 2009) feels ‘privileged to be able to help these women and families, and positively impact their future’. The programme engages with 6 000+ women per year, and is now seeking support to branch out and take its magic to other hospitals across South Africa. Find out more at www.thezoeproject.co.za"

You do an honorable, and selfless job. Much appreciated. The Zoe project is definitely a good one.

I know of the hundreds of risks to which pregnant mothers and their children are daily exposed to, the majority of which, in deed translate to deaths.

The undertaking of this Zoe project should be a timely and much required intervention, albeit yet only in South Africa.

Even so, it is a model operation that could just the same, be mirrored in other countries

I find this post original, focusing on a relevant, and deep (that video!).
