Los Angeles - Naomi Campbell will give up modelling when she has a baby.
The 38-year-old beauty has vowed to quit the catwalk when she becomes a mother after getting broody during a visit to a maternity hospital in Lagos, Nigeria.
She said: "That's it, when I have babies I'm giving up this business."
Naomi - who recently served 200 hours of community service after assaulting two police officers at an airport - cradled a baby at the hospital and spoke to doctors and mothers.
The beauty was in Africa for the Thisday Africa Rising concert with friend and fellow model Tyson Beckford.
A friend said: "Naomi donated six sacks of toys to the hospital and said to one doctor she was 'hoping and praying that things change if Barack Obama gets in.' "
Earlier this week, Naomi insisted she wasn't a bad person and claims people ignore the charity work she does.
She said: "When people say all these negative things about me, I ignore them. Let them be negative - but do that away from me. It hurts, but I know there is much more good in the world.
"I'm blessed to be able to do charitable work and good things but nobody focuses on that because I don't throw it in people's faces. That's why they focus on the negatives." - Bang Showbiz.com
