Additional items we provide to our hospitals:
Clothing - Swaddles, knotted sleep sacks, and beanies ranging from preemie-newborn sizing for staff to have on hand to dress the baby in and be able to give to the family for a keepsake item.
Children’s books - for the older siblings experiencing the loss of their baby sibling.
