The NICU Cuddling and Advocacy Program provides critical support to infants in the NICU. The program's main focuses are supporting neonates in the NICU by simply reading to and holding them. Providing comfort and cuddles to babies has been shown to mitigate signs of distress and irritation. Our presence provides support and comfort to the infants, their families, and the wonderful NICU staff.
