Report

10-year-old Sabrina came to Moskva from an orphanage in Novosibirskaya oblast for spinal cord surgery. Due to a congenital disease, the girl cannot walk, but the surgery helped slow the progression of the illness and gave her the opportunity to continue living a full life, as she is used to.

Sabrina is an orphan: her parents were deprived of parental rights — so she came to Moskva all alone. A strange hospital, unfamiliar people, an upcoming surgery, and not a single familiar face nearby — a terrifying ordeal for a child's psyche.

But the entire time Sabrina was in the hospital, a nanny from the foundation was by her side: supporting her, holding her hand, helping her not to be afraid.

"At first, Sabrina was very anxious, even scared," the nanny says, "but we quickly found common ground, and she was able to relax. We made crafts together, drew, danced to her favorite music. And, of course, we talked a lot. She is still a child, but 10 is an age when many questions arise and you want to discuss them with someone."

Thank you for your compassion! Thanks to you, nannies — caring and reliable adults — were by the side of Sabrina and our other wards, children undergoing treatment in Moskva, so they were not afraid.

About the campaign

Children need the childcare of a nanny!

Sabrina is an orphan; we brought her to Moscow from the Novosibirsk region. She needed a complex operation at Veltishchev Hospital.

Sabrina has no one. Her parents' rights have been revoked, and her relatives have disowned her. She has suffered many losses in her life, yet she still smiles.

"She navigates her wheelchair perfectly, loves to sing, dance, and make crafts. At the same time, Sabrina is very sensitive, seeking approval and protection from adults, often holding their hands," her nannies say.

There are currently dozens of children like Sabrina in Moscow hospitals. They undergo lengthy treatments alone. We pay for professional nannies to ensure that each child has support. The nannies care for them, comfort them, and help them gain strength before surgeries and persevere afterward.

Your donation is an investment in providing support for a child who has already faced too many challenges. Give children care and support during their most difficult times. Provide nannies for the foundation's wards!
