If there's one universal truth about kids, it may be this: They want to grow up as quickly as possible. And for over 100 years, Johnson & Johnson has been working to help them grow up as healthy as possible, too.

One important way the company is achieving this goal is by empowering those on the front lines of delivering care to newborns, children and mothers around the world, from nurses to midwives. The roots of this commitment date to the 1890s, when Johnson & Johnson created maternity kits filled with such basic-yet-critical supplies as sterile sutures and antiseptic soap for doctors and midwives to use, helping make childbirth safer.
