Another gown worn, another milestone achieved. 🎓

But beyond the gown and the certificate, stepping into another field of study has opened my eyes to the importance of being intentional about learning beyond one’s primary field. It has reminded me that knowledge should never be monotonous; there is always value in exploring, learning, and growing in different directions.

With a heart full of gratitude, I give all glory to God Almighty for the grace to reach this milestone. I am deeply grateful to my family, especially my husband, Hon. Michael Okoya , for his love, encouragement, and unwavering support throughout this journey.

I am grateful to have celebrated my graduation and induction into the Teaching Profession after successfully completing my Professional Diploma in Education (PDE) at the Federal College of Education, Abeokuta.

Throughout the programme, I was exposed to areas such as Educational Psychology, Teaching Methods and Pedagogy, Classroom Management, Curriculum Studies, Educational Assessment and Evaluation, Guidance and Counselling, Educational Technology, School Administration and Management, Teaching Practice, Educational Philosophy, and Sociology of Education.

Beyond the certificate, these experiences have equipped me with valuable knowledge, skills, and professional attitudes that will help me communicate effectively, understand learners, manage learning environments, assess knowledge, and contribute meaningfully to education.

I look forward to applying these skills wherever they are relevant. More importantly, I believe this training will complement my profession as a Dietitian, particularly in nutrition education, counselling, effective communication, and supporting positive behaviour change.

Another chapter of learning. Another opportunity to serve. Another reason to be grateful.

Here’s to continuous learning, growth, and becoming a better professional in every field I find myself. 🎓✨

You're still breastfeeding?"
That question genuinely caught me by surprise.
My daughter had just turned one year old, and although I personally wasn't planning to breastfeed until two years, I had set a goal of breastfeeding for at least 18 months.
So, when someone expressed shock that I was still breastfeeding, I couldn't help but wonder...
Why are we surprised when a mother continues breastfeeding beyond one year, when global recommendations encourages it?
What made the experience even more interesting was that I studied Nutrition and Dietetics which made me knew the recommendations. I knew the science. Yet I still found myself having to mentally push past comments that could easily make a mother doubt herself.
And that got me thinking.
Perhaps one of the biggest reasons many mothers do not meet the recommended duration of breastfeeding is discouragement from people around them.
Sometimes it's: "Your milk is no longer enough." "The baby is too old to breastfeed." "Why are you still doing that?"
These comments may seem harmless, but to a tired mother trying her best, they can be enough to make her stop before she is ready.
This is why support matters.
The World Health Organization recommends:
🤱 Exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months.
🍲 Appropriate complementary feeding from 6 months while continuing breastfeeding until at least two years and beyond.
Breastfeeding after one year is not "just for comfort." It continues to provide nutrition, immune protection, and emotional security while supporting healthy growth and development.
This message is especially important as Nigeria strengthens its focus on the First 1,000 Days of Life which is a period from conception until a child's second birthday. These 1,000 days are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lay the foundation for lifelong health, learning, and productivity.
As parents, families, friends, and communities, our words matter.
Instead of discouraging mothers, let's encourage them.
Instead of questioning their decision to continue breastfeeding, let's celebrate their commitment.
And to every breastfeeding mother reading this: expect that some people may not understand your journey. Don't let uninformed opinions make you abandon your goals, provided you and your baby are healthy and there is no medical reason to stop.
Sometimes, the support a mother needs isn't another supplement or another gadget.
Sometimes, it's simply hearing: "You're doing a great job. Keep going." 💚
