"I coach and support parents/caregivers while transitioning their babies from NICU to home until their services in the community begins."

About Me

I am a mother of three children and I felt overwhelmed bringing full-term infants home, let alone premature ones. Being a long-time NICU Occupational Therapist, and also working in Early Intervention, I struggled and felt alone in my journey as a mother, with the exception of my husband. I kept asking myself, “Why aren’t there specific bridging programs to help with this specific population of stressed parents?” Now, I work with parents of premature infants that are feeling the same way – overwhelmed, isolated, not sure where to go to get their questions answered, and finding the proper resources. At Parent NICU Connection, I help parents gain knowledge and learn skills to help them help their babies. I focus on empowering parents and building their confidence to enjoy their babies as stress free as possible.
