Vodacom, through its Siyakha Platform, has launched a mobile solution called Mum and Baby that offers maternal support to expectant mothers.

The information will be available through videos and SMS and will cover a range of health topics including; Sexual and reproductive health, Pregnancy information, Breastfeeding, Immunization, Mother-child bonding, Early childhood development, Nutrition and HIV/AIDS.
