About

Parents of premature babies often feel lost, overwhelmed and alone during their prematurity journey. Our vision is a world where no parent goes through the experience of prematurity alone. Our mission is to inform and guide parents of preemies so that they may confidently navigate the journey of prematurity. We provide support for preemie parents through care packages, our mentor program, the MyPreemie App, and our online community.

Our Preemie Parent Care Package is designed for parents of premature babies – with an emphasis placed on providing information and resources that are most helpful while in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and the exciting and oftentimes, overwhelming experience of transitioning home from the NICU.

Our Preemie Parent Mentor Program focuses on providing peer to peer guidance and support to parents throughout their child’s prematurity journey. We have a team of trained parent (and grandparent) volunteers, each of whom has had their own experience with prematurity.

The MyPreemie app is a complete toolkit for the unique practical and emotional needs of families of premature babies with content from the authors of the acclaimed book Preemies: The Essential Guide for Parents of Premature Babies; available in English and Spanish, Android and iOS.
