Thanks to your support, we were able to pay for the work of hospital nannies who stay with children who are alone in the hospital.
Over the course of two months, 60 children were surrounded by the care, love, and attention of our hospital nannies.
We would like to share a story from the project:
A three-year-old girl named Eva* was admitted to the infectious diseases ward with a high fever and severe weakness. It was a difficult time for her: the treatment required IV drips, and there was no one by her side at that moment.
During the next procedure, a hospital nanny was with Eva. She held the girl's hand, spoke to her calmly, and kept repeating that she would feel better very soon. To distract and comfort the little girl, the nanny quietly sang a lullaby. Hearing the familiar melody, Eva relaxed and fell asleep.
With each passing day, the girl's condition improved. She began to smile more often, was more willing to communicate, and looked forward to seeing the nanny. Together, they sang songs, and soon Eva was happily singing along herself.
These moments may seem simple, but they are exactly what help children cope with treatment more easily. Care, attention, and a sense of safety reduce anxiety, make the hospital stay less frightening, and help the child focus on the most important thing—getting better.
