Karanja Opio Onyango

Neonatal care nurse at Naivasha Children's Hospital

English, Swahili

I've been a nurse for 15 years, most of them in neonatal care at Naivasha Children's Hospital in Naivasha. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else. The thing I'm proudest of is that families usually remember my name. I bake for the whole street at New Year. It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.
