Because this journey needs more than medical care, it needs a community.

We believe prematurity and sickness at birth is a hidden and lifelong trauma that can be reduced through the courage, empathy and understanding of people who have experienced it.

We've been there. As parents who have lived the journey of having a baby born premature, critically ill and beyond, we offer the kind of support no medical team can.

We're here to walk beside and light the path forward.

Our community of lived experience is shaping futures and making positive change for today's and tomorrow's generations, to reduce the burden and improve long-term outcomes for years to come.

We bring:

A community that can guide and educate - improving the health and wellbeing of the entire family, for a lifetime.
A community that supports and nurtures through connection and shared experiences, for the entire journey.
A community that is bold enough to use our voices for positive change.

A community to light and lead the way.

We’re here for the entire journey; from a high-risk pregnancy, during a baby’s neonatal stay and well beyond, for a lifetime.

Peer Support – in hospital, after discharge and for years after
Education – through family resources and an online information hub
Advocacy, awareness and involvement in research – our voices are influencing positive change
