description	Maternal health and well-being have a direct impact on the welfare of the child, as caregiver distress contributes to morbidity in the child. Liberia's under-five mortality rate is improving dramatically but remains high: as of 2010, 1 in 10 children still die before the age of five. Psychosocial factors contribute to a child's increased risk for malnutrition, neglect, and infectious diseases. Among these risk factors is maternal mental health. Three cases from the authors' work on the recently established maternal-child mental health consultation service at JFK Hospital in Monrovia, Liberia, are presented.
