Kayla Gentry's Company Details
SmileChild is a Columbus-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that fights infant mortality by supporting infants and families with education and resources. SmileChild aims to bridge the education gap by utilizing baby products such as bibs, Pack 'n Plays and diapers to incentivize vital education on safe sleeping techniques, healthy nutrition, and other necessary practices to effectively care for infants. This initiative will be carried out in hospital networks and community hotspots. Currently, SmileChild is in a conjoined research effort with Nationwide Children's Hospital (ranked amongst the top 10 Children's Hospitals in the US) and is developing an iOS learning platform composed of incentive driven learning modules on infant care topics. SmileChild also works on OSU's campus and the surrounding Columbus community to host education events and prize giveaways to not only increase community knowledge on safe sleep and nutrition, but also to raise general awareness on the issue of infant mortality in Central Ohio.
