Our Revised & Updated
NICU Baby’s Bill of Rights
We believe in family-integrated care that is developmentally appropriate and supportive.
We believe that all NICU parents and babies deserve access to the individualized support and resources they need to thrive well beyond leaving the hospital.
And we believe that NICU parents are the most important part of their baby’s care team.
To support these beliefs, NPN has developed the NICU Baby’s Bill of Rights that seeks to inform and empower clinicians to encourage and facilitate bonding between NICU parents and their babies.
We first developed a NICU Parent’s Bill of Rights in 2013 as a collaborative project to help address and break down barriers that often prevent NICU parents from bonding with their baby and playing an active role in their daily care. We encourage you to print and share a copy of the NICU Baby’s Bill of Rights with your NICU.
