KMC - Kangaroo Mother Care

Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) encourages skin-to-skin contact between the mother and the newborn baby. During the consultation, the clinical team considers the child's age, current symptoms, previous medical history and the concerns shared by parents. This careful approach helps the family understand how KMC - Kangaroo Mother Care fits into the child's overall healthcare plan.

KMC helps keep the baby warm, supports breastfeeding and strengthens the bond between mother and baby, especially for small or premature babies. Care is provided in a child-friendly manner with appropriate monitoring and clear communication at every stage. Parents can ask questions about preparation, expected progress, medicines or supportive measures, and any follow-up that may be required after KMC - Kangaroo Mother Care.

Mothers and families are guided on the correct position, duration and safety of KMC at the clinic and at home. Families receive practical guidance about home care, warning signs and the right time to return for review. If a child needs additional tests, observation, admission or specialist support, the next step is explained clearly and arranged according to the child's clinical condition.
