NMB MOVES TO PROVIDE LACTACTING MOTHERS A NURSING & FIRST AID ROOM

NMB Bank has established a lactation room that will provide space for nursing mothers working with the Bank to breast feed their babies.

The room will among other things help working moms at the bank pump and preserve breast milk for their babies during working hours. 

The move, according to the NMB management, is to help mothers to transition well after maternity leave. 

Speaking during the launching ceremony of the nursing room at NMB headquarters in Dar es Salaam, the Chairperson of NMB Women Arise Network and the bank’s head of Trade Finance Ms Linda Tegisa, said the establishment of the room is an initiative set by the bank to support women in carrying up their roles at the workplace and nursing their babies. 

We are very grateful to the management of the bank for setting up the initiative to support women especially those with babies; she said adding that the move expresses strong commitment by the employer to support women in nursing their babies without missing at the workplace. 

Ms Tegisa urged other financial institutions and others to establish nursing rooms and help the working mothers express breast milk for their babies in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings that may arise between the working moms and their employer. 

Many working mothers face many challenges when it comes to balancing breastfeeding with tackling their job requirements; having a nursing room at the workplace is an important initiative to break the challenges; she said. 

On the other hand, the Head of Innovation of the Bank Ms Josina Njambi, said the launched nursing rooms contain all important facilities to enable moms at the bank meet and breastfeed their babies, pump and preserve milk. 

The rooms contains comfortable chairs that allow working mothers to sit up straight to pump milk, a refrigerator for storing breast milk and a sink to rinse out parts with soaps and towel among other necessities.
