Celebrating Mother's Day Early

Ickle Pickles and Tiny Tatty Teddy honor new mums of premature and sick babies

Mother's Day is a special occasion dedicated to celebrating the incredible strength and love of mothers everywhere. However, for new mums of premature or sick babies, this day may be especially challenging.

To honor these resilient mothers, Ickle Pickles is partnering with Carte Blanche Greeting the creators of Tiny Tatty Teddy to bring a touch of joy and support to those spending their first Mother's Day with their babies in neonatal care.

A Special Partnership for Extraordinary Mums

Recognising the unique challenges faced by NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) mums, Ickle Pickles and Tiny Tatty Teddy have joined forces to create a heartwarming initiative. This year, they are giving special Mother's Day gifts to mums who are navigating the emotional journey of having a premature or sick baby. These gifts aim to provide comfort and reassurance during a time that can be both overwhelming and isolating.

The Importance of Support and Awareness

Prematurity and neonatal care can be daunting, and it is crucial to raise awareness about these experiences. By celebrating Mother's Day early, we can shine a light on the struggles and triumphs of families in neonatal units. This initiative not only honors mothers but also helps foster a sense of understanding among those who may not be familiar with the challenges of prematurity.
