The Mustela Foundation
The Mustela Foundation supports families in the most important moments of their lifes.
The arrival of a child is a life-changing event for any family and parents may have many questions. The Mustela Foundation provides them with information guides and entertaining media (quizzes, games, interactive videos, etc.) covering many of their concerns. Pregnancy, childbirth, returning home, preventing home accidents and even children's sleeping problems are covered.
All the contents of the Mustela Foundation are validated by professionals working with children: paediatric nurses, psychologists, midwives or paediatricians, in order to guarantee their accuracy and the regular updating of the information provided to families.

The Mustela Foundation also awards a number of prizes, including the Maieutics Prize, which recognises its commitment to midwifery in France and Europe, and the annual Social Paediatrics Prize, which rewards projects for the benefit of children and their families.
