The tiniest of patients and their families arrive in the NICU with little to no time for preparation and the time that follows is a roller coaster ride of frequent ups and downs. Items on the NICU Wish List provide needed supplies for new moms and some toys that allow parents and caregivers to engage in developmental play.

Our project will help in two areas:

• Collecting items that have been requested. These include: rattles,teethers, sensory toys, interactive and developmental baby toys, baby bouncers, baby play gyms, nursing pillows, and breast pump kits. 
• Items for a “Comfort Closet” that support postpartum moms. Suggested  items include:  shampoo, conditioner, soaps, body wipes, leggings(multiple sizes), t-shirts, pads and snacks

Note: for the more costly items members may want to go together with a friend to purchase
