24.01.2022 ***IMPORTANT update regarding our NurtureGroups*** The health and safety of our miracle babies and their families is our priority and to continue to deliver ou...r vision during this health risk in the safest ways possible. With great disappointment, Miracle Babies have made the decision to suspend all NurtureGroups Australia wide for the next fortnight with a view of reassessing circumstances each fortnight. Families needing support over this time, please register on the link below to our NurtureTime Online sessions and connect with other families across Australia. We will however continue to offer support for miracle families in the following ways: NurtureLine 1300 622 243 (1300 MBABIES) will remain available and accessible 24 hours 7 days a week. In light of most Neonatal Intensive Care Units being closed to only parental visitors, we will be offering several weekly NurtureTime Online sessions. Our NurtureProgram teams will be conducting these live sessions for all families nationally to connect and be supported during these difficult times. If you are a NICU or SCN family and wish to register, please do so here: https://miraclebabies.org.au//register-for-nurturetime-on/ Continue to wash hands (with water, soap and for 20 seconds), avoid large gatherings, self-isolate as much as possible and follow the guidelines of your local state health departments.Stay safe, take care and reach out if you need. #miraclebabies #prematurebabies #sicknewborns #NICU #SCN #selfisolate #washhands #NurtureGroup #NurtureTime #NurtureLine

Why should you join? -We care about how you as a parent of a premmie or health challenged child is going -Covid19 is a crazy time and being isolated can bring memories both good and bad to the surface -Sessions are relaxed so no pressure if partner wants you to find something, your child decides they have to be fed now or you just need to go... make yourself another cuppa (which has all happened in my house ;) -While sessions are 1hour you are more than welcome to join for as long or as little as you are able -Session numbers are small so a great way to meet others -It is a place to laugh, cry ,vent, ask questions and meet other families on a similar journey -Finally we would just love to meet you Register today at miraclebabies.com.au -> Nurturetime Online register (*times on the website are in Eastern States time just look for the Thurs/Fri times ;) there are other session times hosted by interstate Miracle Babies staff See more
