Support for NICU Parents -
by someone who’s been there every step of the way
Created by a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner to help you navigate the NICU with clarity, confidence, and hope.
Understand what’s happening, what matters, and what to do next.
Jeri Power, RN, MSN, NNP-BC
After more than 26 years in the NICU, I’ve had the privilege of caring for some of the strongest babies—and the strongest parents.
I’ve seen the fear of the unknown.
The exhaustion of showing up every single day.
The quiet moments of hope in between the alarms and uncertainty.
And I’ve also seen this:
Parents who find strength they didn’t know they had.
Parents who learn to celebrate the smallest, most meaningful milestones.
Parents who just need to hear… you’re doing enough.
đŸ’› I created Bright Sprout for you.
Based on practices aligned with American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations
This will help you if your baby is in the NICU and…
Your baby just entered the NICU and everything feels overwhelming
You hear medical terms but don’t fully understand them
You’re unsure what’s normal—and what’s not
You want guidance you can trust without Googling for hours
Understand - Know what the machines and terms actually mean
Navigate - Know what to expect each day
Cope - Handle the emotional side
Remember - Capture progress and milestones
The first week in the NICU is the most overwhelming. This guide helps you understand what’s happening and what to expect—day by day.
