October is SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) Awareness Month, a time dedicated to educating and empowering families to create safe sleep environments for their babies. We’re committed to supporting families with resources and knowledge to reduce the risk of SIDS and promote safe sleeping practices. The safest way for babies to sleep is alone, on their backs, and in their own crib—every sleep, every time. Together, let’s work towards a future where every baby can sleep safely and grow up healthy. #ForTheBabies #ForTheFamilies #SIDSAwareness #SafeSleep #ProtectOurBabies
About us
Nurses for Newborns exists to provide a safety net for families most at-risk in order to prevent infant mortality, child abuse and neglect by providing in-home nursing visits which promote healthcare, education, and positive parenting skills. Nurses for Newborns provides critical health care services through an In-Home Nurse Visitation Program to infants who are born into a wide range of medical, economical, environmental and social high risks. Our goal is to ensure every newborn has a healthy start, every parent or caregiver has resources to help them, and that every baby has a chance to thrive. In addition to medical care, we assist families whenever possible with donated materials needed for safe care, such as diapers, formula, baby food, clothing, bedding, and cribs. We welcome hundreds of volunteers each year who help us manage the logistics of this work.

Tiny Tuesday Talks. October is Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Awareness Month, and we’re dedicated to helping families create the safest sleep environments for their babies. One way we combat SIDS is by providing each of our clients with a playard, ensuring every baby has a safe place to sleep—alone, on their back, and in their own space. 🛏️💤 Together, we can take simple steps to protect our little ones and reduce the risk of SIDS. Every baby deserves a safe night’s sleep. #ForTheBabies
