My baby was born prematurely at 35 weeks. We had the nicu team waiting in theatre incase my baby needed any help. Unfortunately she did, but thankfully Jenny was there to help. Jenny not only got my daughter stabilised, she also kept my husband and I informed of what was going on which helped us stay calm. My baby was in the NICU for 5 days and I cannot fault the care she received, or that we did as her parents too.
Jenny also supported me in breast feeding my daughter when she came off of tube feeds. I was nervous to feed her with her being previously tube fed and also premature. But Jenny helped me latch her and encouraged me. My daughter is now 3 weeks old and exclusively breastfed and I thank Jenny for this!
All staff in the NICU were brilliant but Jenny particularly stood out for us as she went above and beyond for us and we are so thankful she was working the day my daughter was born and the days following.
