Miracle Babies Foundation supplies a range of resources for families with premature or sick babies to positively change their experience during what can be an emotional and traumatic time. Our resources are developed by parents who have had a premature or sick baby and work toward supporting, educating, and empowering families from admission, discharge, bereavement, and the transition to home.
Our resources are assembled with love and care by our staff and volunteers, who work toward 'Improving, supporting, and enhancing all lives impacted by a premature or sick birth.'
In 2023, Miracle Babies distributed 12,566 resource packs to families nationally, including:
Our NICU Survival Pack equips parents with vital tools and resources as they try to navigate this strange and overwhelming high tech universe.
Available to families who have been admitted to hospital unexpectedly or transferred a distance from home.
Educate mothers on expressing breast milk for their babies in the NICU/SCN and provide resources for safe storage and transportation of expressed breast milk.
Our Grad Bag has been introduced to help you with your transition from hospital to home.Thank you to BabyLove Nappies for being the proud launch partner and continuing to support this great resource.
Miracle Babies Foundation offers solace to families who are grieving a loss by providing a special Memory Box keepsake.
Every year, with the help of Natalis, we gift mothers who are spending time in the NICU/SCN with a card and a little gift reminding them how strong they are.
Every year, we give Father's Day gifts to fathers currently spending this special day in the NICU/SCN.
During Christmas time, Miracle Babies arranges for Christmas gifts to be sent to hospitals for families spending time in the NICU or SCN.

'Very helpful resource, especially for Mums & parents like me who aren't fully prepared. Getting the pack meant there was at least one less thing for me to worry about. Especially for something so important like transporting milk to your newborn in the safest way. Thank you for helping our miracle babies.'- Miracle Mum, Munu
