Ramata Sissoko Cissé is an assistant professor of biology for anatomy and physiology at Georgia Gwinnett College in Lawrenceville, Georgia. One of her students reached out to her a night before an important 8 a.m. classes, to ask for help.

“She asked if she could bring the baby with her to class because she had missed a class already and did not want to be behind,” Ramata said to Yahoo. “I know the student is very smart and ambitious. She really wanted to learn.”

Cissé asked the student to bring her child to the lecture so that they could find a solution together. But when Cissé saw her students couldn’t balance taking notes and soothing the baby, and she decided to carry the baby on her back.

Cissé said. She taught a three-hour class with the sleeping baby secured to her back. “In my native Mali, we used sheets and other pieces of fabric to securely carry babies on our backs. My natural instinct was to find a way to secure the baby and I was standing next to a rack with a clean lab coat.”

“Towards the end of the class, the baby woke up and I took him off my back and I fed him. He did not cry once,”

Later that day Twitter user @AnnaKhadejah, who is the professor’s daughter, tweeted a picture of her mother, Dr. Ramata Sissoko Cisse – in class with the baby on her back.
