NICU Parent Support Resources for Healthcare Professionals

Simply Preemie was founded by Rachael, whose son Theo was born at 28 weeks and spent 101 days in the NICU. During that time, she found it difficult to find practical support tools and clothing designed specifically for premature babies. So she built them.

Today, Simply Preemie offers a growing collection of free digital tools designed to support parents during their NICU journey. Everything is free, requires no login, and works on any phone. No personal data is collected.

If you work in a neonatal unit, you can share these tools with the families in your care. Below you will find a downloadable poster for your parent room or noticeboard and a QR code that links directly to our full resource hub.
