Vision 

Our vision is to ensure that every NICU family receives the necessary support and services to care for and advocate for their infant.

Mission 

Our mission is to provide emotional and psychological support to parents of preemies and critically ill infants. We believe that addressing the parents' needs is crucial to optimize the outcomes of these vulnerable babies. That's why we have established a support system of parents who share similar experiences. Join us and find the comfort and guidance you need during this challenging time.

Welcome to our community! We believe that family is not just limited to parents and children, but it extends to all the healthcare professionals, volunteers, siblings, grandparents, neighbors, family, church family, and friends. We are here to support you and your family every step of the way Together, we can create a strong and supportive village that will help you thrive.
