It takes a village, and ours is full of heart. 💛

Our comprehensive Spina Bifida Program at Holtz Children’s Hospital brings together pediatric specialists from neurosurgery, urology, orthopedics, rehabilitation, and more, all in one family-friendly environment.

Spina bifida is a birth condition in which the spine and spinal cord don't form properly before birth. It can affect mobility, bladder and bowel function, and overall health, but with the right care and support, children can thrive.

From diagnosis through adolescence, our team of experts works hand in hand with families to manage every aspect of care, helping children grow stronger and more independent every day.

🎉 One year ago, Emily Shipman and her family made history at Holtz Children’s Hospital when they became the first to undergo an in-utero spina bifida repair.

Thanks to the expertise of our fetal surgeon, Dr. Rodrigo Ruano, our pediatric neurosurgeon, Dr. Heather McCrea, and their dedicated teams, baby Luey was born healthy and strong just two months later. 💙

Today, Luey is thriving. He continues to receive care at Holtz Children's Comprehensive Spina Bifida Clinic, Shriners Children’s Orthopedic Center at UHealth Jackson Children’s Care, and rehabilitation therapy at Lynn Rehabilitation Center. He's surrounded by love, care, and the same team who first met him before he was even born.

We’re honored to celebrate this incredible milestone with the Shipman family and our fetal surgery team, whose compassion and innovation continue making miracles daily.

It was a heartwarming day on the water as patients and families from Holtz Children’s Hospital joined our PediPals team for an afternoon of sailing, smiles, and sunshine.

Events like these give our young patients the chance to just be kids. They get out on the water, make memories with their families, and experience moments of fun beyond the hospital walls.

A huge thank you to everyone who made this special day possible, including our partners at Jackson Health Foundation and the amazing team at Shake-A-Leg Miami 💕

We kicked off the fall season with a special visit from at Holtz Children’s Hospital. 🐴✨

Throughout his visit, our patients wore big smiles as they petted him, brushed his mane, enjoyed music therapy, and played, helping to ease their anxieties during their healing journey at Holtz Children's.

Therapy animal visits like Pegasus’ help our patients during some of the most challenging days. 💙

Thank you, Pegasus, for reminding us how powerful a little kindness (and a gentle nuzzle) can be.

As parents, it’s not always easy to tell when a child is struggling with their mental health. The signs can be subtle and often go unnoticed.

Dr. Natasha Poulopoulos, pediatric psychologist at Holtz Children's Hospital, shares three key things every parent should be aware of, like changes in mood, sleep, or eating habits.

If you’ve noticed any of these, take a moment to check in with your child and talk to a mental health professional if needed. Early support can make all the difference. 🩷💪

Looking for simple ways to boost your child’s health? Here are five healthy habits with a fall twist to focus on this month. 🍂

🥕 Build colorful plates with fruits, veggies, protein, and whole grains. Seasonal picks like carrots, sweet potatoes, and apples make great swaps.
👟 Add a ten minute movement break, from outdoor fun to living-room dance parties, whatever makes the heart happy.
💧 Make water fun by adding apples, orange slices, or a cinnamon stick, and refill at set times.
🍬 Create a sweets plan together. Enjoy healthy sweet treats with meals and keep candy out of sight between snacks.
🌙 Set a cozy bedtime routine. Dim the lights, share a story, and go screen-free 30 minutes before sleep.

Save this for later and share with a fellow parent. ✨
