Once upon a time, when a new baby was coming to the world, there were special people called midwives who helped make it happen. These midwives are like superheroes, but instead of capes, they wear kind smiles and carry knowledge in their hearts.

Midwives help mommies when they're having a baby. They know all about babies growing inside mommies and how to help them come out safely. They're like the guides on a journey, helping families step by step through the magical process of birth.

But midwives don't just stop there. They're also like teachers, showing mommies and daddies how to take care of their new babies once they arrive. They teach them how to hold them, feed them, and make them feel loved and safe.

Midwives aren't just important for mommies and daddies, though. They're important for everyone in society. They help make sure that babies are born healthy and strong, which makes for happier families and stronger communities.

Sometimes, midwives even travel to faraway places where mommies might not have anyone else to help them. They bring their knowledge and kindness to these places, making a big difference in the lives of mommies and babies there.

So, next time you see a midwife, remember how special they are. They're not just helping to bring babies into the world, they're helping to bring love, joy, and hope to families everywhere. And that makes them true heroes in our hearts.

Happy international midwives day to all midwives worldwide!
