Is your baby currently in the NICU? Was your baby born prematurely? Or is your term baby in the NICU for high jaundice levels, low blood sugars, or because they have some Respiratory Distress and need oxygen or additional support?
Are you wondering what in the heck is a small baby unit or kangaroo care? Why do NICUs use donor breast milk and what on earth does RDS, BPD, IVH, NEC, ETT, CPAP, HFNC, UVC, UAC, po, ng, NEC, ABG, CBG, CBC, and CMP stand for? Are you asking yourself how will we ever get through this, what questions should I even ask, and when will my baby come home?

I’m honored to share a replay of my guest appearance on Mary Coughlin’s Care Outloud Podcast.
Together, we dive deep into the personal and professional impact of my journey as a NICU parent after the premature birth of my son William at 23 weeks. We explore how that experience transformed my life, inspiring my dedication to family-centered care, trauma-informed care, and mental health support for NICU families.Throughout our heartfelt conversation, I also discuss my work as a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner and Clinical Product Specialist at AngelEye Health, as well as how I created Empowering NICU Parents to provide resources and support to families during their NICU journey.
It was an incredible honor to join Mary, someone I have admired for so long. Mary’s expertise in trauma-informed care, coupled with her compassion and wisdom, made this conversation truly special.Tune in to hear more about our shared passion for improving neonatal care and the importance of connection and support for NICU families.

If you are a NICU parent who is scared, nervous, unsure, and full of questions, then hit the subscribe button so you do not miss another show! We developed this podcast with you in mind. I know even with my experience as a NICU nurse and NNP, I still had so many questions! The fact is that when it concerns your child, especially if they are sick or in the hospital, there is never enough information.
The episodes vary in length, but are meant to be on the shorter side so you can listen either on your commute to the NICU or even quietly at your baby’s bedside.

If your baby is currently in the NICU either due to prematurity or if they are term, this podcast is for you! We discuss issues specific to premature infants as well as neonatal complications for term infants that may require an admission to the NICU.
