The Church is made up of Christians from a myriad of different professions, and yet their ordinary tales of God at work rarely get told. In this series, we bring you stories of faith on the frontline 

My name is Sibo Hakata, and I’m a paediatric nurse specialising in caring for children with life-limiting and chronic illnesses. I provide respite, palliative and community care. Initially, I worked in hospital settings, focusing on special care for premature babies, before transitioning to paediatric research. But then I had the opportunity to work in the community, which I discovered to be a more natural approach to caring for children.
