💜 Today is World Prematurity Day 💜
A day to honour the strength of premature babies, their families, and the incredible teams who care for them.

At Lister Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership, we are committed to ensuring that every parent’s voice is heard and that their experiences help shape and improve neonatal and maternity care.

👶 Around 90,000 babies are born sick or premature every year in the UK.
Behind every preterm baby is a family navigating fear, uncertainty and often huge emotional and financial burdens.

“Supporting families is not optional — it’s vital to improving outcomes.”
— World Health Organization

Let’s work together so parents are included, informed, supported, and near their baby when it matters most.

If you’d like to help improve maternity and neonatal care at East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust , share your feedback — your voice matters, and it drives change.

🌸 Top Tip Tuesday – Preparing for a Planned Induction 🌸
Being induced can sometimes feel like things are out of your control — but there are so many ways to make it a positive and personal experience.
💬 We’d love to hear from you!
✨ Did you create a visual birth plan to show your wishes — such as having a water birth, moving freely, or doing skin-to-skin after birth?
✨ Did knowing what to expect help ease nerves?
✨ Was there anything you brought that made you more comfortable?
✨ Or something you wish you’d left at home?
Your experiences can really help others who are preparing for an induction soon. 💕

🌸We're on the Maternity Unit!🌸

Lister Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership (MNVP) will be on the unit today carrying out "15 Steps for Maternity".

👣This initiative helps us see the maternity service from a service user's perspective - focusing on what people notice in those first 15 steps into a ward or department.

We'll be listening, observing and gathering feedback to help make sure every women and their family feels welcomed, safe, and supported throughout their maternity journey. 💜

If you see us around, please say hello - we'd love to hear your thoughts!
