Master Daniel Ifeoluwa Aderemi
One of the most compelling examples of the impact of Victoria’s Smile Foundation’s work comes from Mrs Odunayo Aderemi, a 27-year-old teacher living in a rural community in Ondo, Southwestern Nigeria. Mrs Aderemi had experienced a devastating stillbirth during her first pregnancy, but with the help of VSF, she was able to have a successful delivery with her second child.
When VSF first met Mrs Aderemi, she was struggling with the emotional aftermath of her previous loss. Medical records showed that her baby had been lost due to foetal distress, and VSF was determined to ensure that this wouldn’t happen again. Throughout her second pregnancy, VSF’s Program Officers visited her regularly to monitor her progress and ensure that her living conditions were as clean and hygienic as possible. The organization also provided financial support to alleviate any stress or difficulties that arose during this time.
On February 10th, 2023, Mrs Aderemi was admitted to the hospital for delivery. An ultrasound revealed that her baby was in the wrong position and too large for a natural birth, so she underwent a successful C-section on February 14th and delivered a healthy baby boy. Both mother and child are now thriving, and VSF continues to provide support to them as they navigate this new chapter in their lives.
Mrs Aderemi’s story serves as a powerful reminder of the impact that organizations like VSF can have on individuals and communities. By providing crucial resources and support, VSF was able to help Mrs Aderemi have a successful pregnancy and delivery, and ensure that she and her child are healthy and thriving.
Christening, known colloquially in many communities in Nigeria as “Naming Ceremony” is an important part of the pregnancy-childbirth cycle, it is the first time that the child is formally introduced to the larger family and friends. In many cultures, the child receives their name during this event. Naming Ceremony is a celebratory rite and our program officers are always on hand to celebrate with the family. Here are pictures from Daniel Ifeoluwa Aderemi’s christening.
