Sweet Little Robbie's NICU Photo Shoot


Please enjoy our inspirational photos and consider supporting our mission to share hope with families who have a baby born prematurely or critically ill. Our programs include an online support group, the gift of photography, group events and meetings, information, and email support. Our mission is to connect parents and let them know they are not alone. We thank our supporters, volunteers, and donors for allowing us to touch the lives of NICU, preemie, and angel families. 

We pray these special memories will help the parents to remember how strong they were in overcoming a crisis situation.


A note from Mom:
"Our Robbie was born 7 weeks early, because of complications I was having with my pregnancy. Robbie was taken straight to the NICU after his birth, and I was taken straight to the ICU so I didn't get to see him until he was about 5 days old and it was several more days before I could hold him. I was released when he was about 2 weeks old, and coming home without our baby was one of the hardest things in the world. We can't wait for the day when we get to bring him home. Robbie was a wiggle-worm from his earliest ultrasound and even in his little NICU bed, he still kicks and stretches just link when he was in my belly. He already knows what he likes and doesn't like and we already know that we could not be more crazy about him."

A note from Ashley:
"Meet Robert Owen Baker. Robbie was born 7 weeks early due to mom, Carrie, suffering from Pre-Eclampsia, but is quite healthy aside from struggling to maintain healthy oxygen levels. His little personality is quite serious and he wants to call the shots, but he loves when mom and dad get to come visit everyday and be there for his feedings which is super special because Mom did not get to visit the NICU for Robbie's first 5 days. Robbie is a little fighter and I have no doubt he will be running around sooner than expected."
