| Pikanini Academy |
| Arwyp Medical Centre has affiliated itself with Pikanini Academy, a Mom and Child Centre located within a five minute drive from the hospital. |
| |
| The management and staff at Pikanini understand that becoming a new Mom requires huge adjustments in the life of a new mother and her child. Pikanini’s well-rounded approach to caring for the needs of young mothers and their newborns reflects Arwyp’s holistic approach to healthcare. Your needs will be attended to whether you’re a new mom looking for a little interaction with others or need the expert advice and support of a registered sister or a professional nutritionist. Getting around is also very difficult with a newborn (and its siblings) so Pikanini’s one-stop, safe and friendly environment is ideal. |
