Kensington Palace also released heartwarming photos of her visit to a London hospital’s maternity unit.
The Duchess of Cambridge honors the health professionals' work after spending several days shadowing a London hospital’s maternity unit.The Duchess of Cambridge has spent much of the past few years learning about early childhood development, and now she's taken time to focus on the important work being done by the people at the very start of a child’s life: midwives.
In an open letter to midwives across the U.K. and around the world, Duchess Kate celebrates the"humbling work" these professionals do to improve the lives of others. “You are there for women at their most vulnerable; you witness strength, pain and unimaginable joy on a daily basis,” she writes in the letter released by Kensington Palace today, December 27, ahead of 2020’s International Year of the Nurse and Midwife.
She adds of her experience, “No matter the setting, I was continually struck by the compassion that those of you I spent time with showed, and the incredible work ethic you demonstrated on behalf of your entire profession—not only performing your rounds but working tirelessly through the night to support people that were at their most vulnerable.
Before informally signing her letter with her first name, Catherine, the duchess shares a quote from founder of modern nursing Florence Nightingale, who was born exactly 200 years ago next year. It reads, “I attribute my success to this: I never have or took an excuse.” That's the mantra Kate has continuously seen with the midwives she's met, she adds.
