About Us
At M’Wives on Wheels, we believe that no woman should have to give birth without proper care, regardless of where she lives. We bring mobile midwifery services directly to rural communities with limited or no access to healthcare. Our mission is to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates and improve health outcomes for mothers and new born by providing essential antenatal, delivery, and postnatal care to vulnerable populations. By combining medical assistance, education, and community empowerment, we ensure that every mother has a safe and supported pregnancy journey.
Our Projects
Transforming Maternal Healthcare in Rural Somaliland
Antenatal Care: Regular check-ups, screenings, and nutrition guidance for expecting mothers.
Skilled Birth Attendent: Midwives train Birth Attendants to support women through labor and delivery
Postnatal Support: Follow-up care for mothers and newborns, including breastfeeding support and infection prevention. Regular and reliable visits to local communities deprived of access to health care with mobile clinics and experienced midwives.
Community Education: Training traditional birth attendants, mothers, and families on safe birth practices and early danger signs in pregnancy.
Why Our Work Matters
Maternal mortality remains one of the leading causes of death for women in low- and middle-income countries. Studies from UNICEF, WHO, and global maternal health research highlight that many of these deaths are preventable with timely medical intervention.
Antenatal and postnatal care are essential pillars of maternal and newborn health, playing a crucial role in preventing complications and saving lives. The World Health Organization (WHO) strongly recommends at least eight antenatal visits during pregnancy and a minimum of three postnatal check-ups within the first six weeks after childbirth. These visits are crucial for identifying and managing health risks, providing essential interventions such as iron and folic acid supplementation, tetanus vaccination, malaria prevention, and birth preparedness education. However, many women in low-income regions do not receive adequate care due to geographical barriers, financial constraints, and cultural factors, increasing their risk of preventable maternal and newborn mortality.
