As a NICU nurse, I am honored to have empowered thousands of NICU parents, helping

mom myself gone NICU nurse, I’ve worn all the hats and love offeringing deep compassion
and practical guidance so you have have a trusted ally during your NICU journey.
Means I've seen some crazy stuff
means well-rounded education and support for you! NICUs are SO different from one another!
Not on purpose, but it means way more experience for you. (There's a huge difference between per diem and full time.)
Where many of my crazy stories-and PTSD— comes from
They're different beasts, believe me
Allows nurses to have a pulse on variations of practice throughout the country
Learning from someone who knows their stuff but can't do people and can't teach is excruciating at best. This fixes that.
