Maternal and Infant Care

Maternal and infant care involves practices to support the health and well-being of both mother and baby before, during, and after pregnancy. It includes regular medical check-ups, proper nutrition, and safe childbirth practices to promote healthy development. Postpartum care helps mothers recover physically and emotionally, while infant care focuses on feeding, hygiene, and monitoring growth to ensure the baby’s healthy development. Educating caregivers about recognizing signs of illness and providing a safe environment is essential. Overall, it aims to foster a healthy start for mother and child, reducing risks and supporting lifelong well-being.
