Bringing Care to Life
Early Initiation of Breastfeeding on Stanford Medicine website
“Global Health Media videos are far and away the best I have seen on breastfeeding and newborn care issues,” said Dr. Janelle Aby, Clinical Professor in Pediatrics at Stanford. She has posted Early Initiation of Breastfeeding on the Stanford website, helping us to reach more health workers, lactation consultants, and parents worldwide.
Dr. Aby believes the videos are “not only useful for resource-poor areas, but are also useful here at home,” and uses them in her classes to train maternity nurses.
Our Breastfeeding Series is now complete and includes 18 videos, half for health workers and half for mothers. All are available in English, French, Spanish, and Swahili, and the mother videos are also available in Kinyarwanda. The videos have been viewed well over a million times and seen in nearly every country.
