Nanay Stories — Real Voices, Real Journeys
This video features heartfelt testimonials from young mothers who bravely share their first experiences of pregnancy and motherhood, navigating their new roles during their teenage years.
By listening to their stories, we gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and realities they face: from unexpected emotions, to family dynamics, to navigating health care as young moms. More than just storytelling, this video aims to create empathy, break stigma, and inspire better support for adolescent mothers during the crucial First 1,000 Days.
In this heartfelt Mother’s Day special, ALIMA PH honors the strength, sacrifice, and unconditional love of every mother—from the very first heartbeat to the countless sleepless nights.
This video is a tribute to Ina, Nanay, Mama, and Mommy—the first doctor, first teacher, and first protector of every child. By spotlighting the sacred journey of motherhood, especially during the First 1,000 Days, we recognize the vital role mothers play in shaping a healthier future for their children and communities.
More than just a celebration, this message is a reminder that mothers are never alone. Through national programs like DOH’s First 1000 Days and supportive platforms like ALIMA PH, we walk alongside every mother—sharing knowledge, building community, and honoring the powerful work of raising the next generation.
