Join me in providing a bit of comfort to families with babies in the NICU at St. John's Hospital in Minnesota (and beyond)!

On October 27, 2023, my twins, Alette and Harrison, were born extremely early at only 25 weeks gestational age, weighing 1lb 10oz and 1lb 12oz respectively. Our family spent just under 100 days in the NICU at Children's Minnesota receiving around the clock, life-saving medical treatment. This was a scary, anxiety-riddled, exhausting time for our family, but we received such amazing care, in addition to beautiful presents donated by loving volunteers.
Now that the twins are healthy and thriving, I want to give back to the NICU community by providing handmade mini blankets and stuffies to babies who are currently in the NICU. Join me in providing handmade comfort to patients and their families!
The Basics
- Join our NICU Club email list below to receive all of the specifics!
- Knit, crochet, or sew a mini blanket (lovey) or a stuffie/plushie for a precious baby in the NICU! (Mini blankets should ideally be a minimum of 18x18", and please NO safety eyes nor buttons. Sewn/yarn eyes only.)
- Mail your treasures to me in February and March to wrap and deliver by end of March!
