Compassionate. Supportive. Healing.

Our child and family life team shows up every day to help kids cope, families feel supported, and hospital moments feel a little less scary. Together, they bring a wide range of expertise to meet patients and families wherever they are.

What three words would you use to describe this team?💙

They traded volleyballs for BINGO calls and baby florals.

We were thrilled to welcome the Grand Rapids Rise on Monday. Alyssa and Rhamant co-hosted a BINGO show with Blue Glass Studio, resulting in more than 20 winners and a lot of laughs!

But that was just the beginning. Berkeley and Morgan visited our NICU for a special visit.

Through the Rise Players with a Purpose community initiative, the four of them chose to partner with Once Upon A Room Grand Rapids to help transform Sasha's hospital room into a warm, boho-inspired space filled with florals and all the baby things!

And the biggest surprise? Through the new Beyond the Room program, Once Upon a Room made sure the entire family felt the love. Sasha’s four older siblings each received their own special gift baskets, and the family was gifted all the essentials they’ll need when Sasha is ready to go home.

Thank you to the Grand Rapids Rise and Once Upon a Room for making such a meaningful impact.💙

The Martinez family bought special outfits for our NICU's Kangaroo-a-thon!🦘

The goal of the event was to educate parents about the benefits of Kangaroo Care, which is touching or holding a baby skin-to-skin. It promotes bonding, helps regulate the baby’s temperature, and supports overall development.

"We know how important skin-to-skin is for our Miles, so we took this very seriously with a lot of excitement," the family said.

When Danielle Grover's daughter, Caroline, was diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis at 9 months old, she turned her family's rare disease journey into hope and support for others.

We're grateful for families like the Grovers and proud to have an NF clinic so families can get the specialized care they deserve.
