Walking With You at Our Hope Parade

On November 6th, Zoo Miami will be the stage for our 2022 ICU baby Hope Parade to kick off World Prematurity Month! Walk registration includes a t-shirt, breakfast snacks, a finishers medal for children, a family gift bag, and admission to Zoo Miami for the entire day after the walk! Join us to walk in honor of the babies who passed away in the NICU and to celebrate our community’s NICU babies, families, and healthcare teams! Nods to commemorate our NICU experiences include a Hallway of Hope and a Bereavement Butterfly Release. All proceeds from the event will support ICU baby’s programs in the NICU’s of Baptist Health's South Miami Hospital and UM/Jackson Memorial’s Holtz Children’s Hospital.

Bedside Support Returns to NICU Families at Holtz

ICU baby Parent-to-Parent mentors are excited and grateful to be back in the NICU at Holtz Children’s Hospital at Jackson Memorial Health System. Due to COVID-19, the hospital restricted visitors to the NICU for over 2 years. But in June, the ICU baby team returned to the NICU to offer emotional, financial, and informational support, face-to-face, to families during their difficult NICU journeys.
