Nepean Hospital Neonatal ICU - Nepean Blue Mountains LHD NSW

We support the parents and babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Nepean Hospital located in the City of Penrith at the foot of the Blue Mountains in Western Sydney, New South Wales (NSW), Australia. NNICUPS volunteers are parents who have had either a premature baby or one who has been sick at birth. All our babies having varying degrees of gestation and challenges at birth.

It is an integral focus of NNICUPS to raise funds to provide practical support to parents whose babies have been born prematurely and require care in the Nepean hospitals Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), and to also raise money to purchase much needed specialised and expensive equipment for the Unit.

Help NNICUPS continue this very worthwhile work in supporting the families of the many premature babies cared for every year at the Nepean hospital. You may have had a premature baby yourself or know someone who has. For any who has experienced this journey they will know it can be a very traumatic and frightening time and will have experienced the support of NNICUPS, whether it be directly through their parent support program, or indirectly through funds that have been raised previously by NNICUPS for equipment used in the NICU, furniture in the parents lounge area or breast pumps able to be loaned out for home use.
