Miracle Babies

Together For A Better Beginning

Miracle Babies is dedicated to helping perinatal mothers and their families during their time of need by providing transportation, mental health assistance, and supportive services.

We know we can change health outcomes if we remove the barriers to families being with their babies, providing more opportunities for breastfeeding and skin-to-skin contact. Our tagline is “Together for a better beginning,” reflecting the importance of this family connection in the critical early weeks and months of an infant’s life and its linkage to improved health outcomes. 

With the generosity of donors and partners, Miracle Babies helps families in numerous ways including:

• Transportation services - Our Special Delivery shuttle vans provide a home-to-hospital-to-home service enabling new parents to be united with their newborns. Miracle Babies works closely with hospital social workers to ensure NICU parents have access to their newborns addressing inequities for low-income parents through free access to transportation
• Miracle Hours provide a unique opportunity for parents to get together, share concerns and feel the support of peers who understand the intricacies and challenges of having a baby in the NICU. Often these parents struggle with feelings of isolation, causing anxiety and depression at the precise time their baby needs them most. 
• MB Cares packages contain essential items and resource materials to aid and comfort families during their baby’s NICU stay. Contents are intended to support parents who spend considerable time in the NICU performing kangaroo care (skin-to-skin bonding) and breastfeeding.  
• Drive Thru Diaper Distributions provides low-income parents with free diapers and baby essentials
• Just launched in June 2022 My Brain and My Baby (MB&MB) Perinatal Mental Wellness program provides individual therapeutic counseling by mental health clinicians via telemedicine. 

Through our programs, we seek to improve health and mental well-being and address inequities for parents through free access to transportation, supportive services, and resources.
