STC Talks...'Big Sis Visits the NICU' with Dr Terri
Thursday, 21 July, 2022
What's a Big Sis to do if her newborn baby brother cannot come home from the hospital immediately? Take a visit to the NICU!In this episode we have the immense privilege of chatting with neonatologist Dr Terri Major-Kincade about her new children's picture book, 'Big Sis Visits the NICU'. Dr Terri has had over 20 years of experience working in several NICUs (or Neonatal Intensive Care Units), taking care of babies who are born prematurely, or those who are too sick to be cared for at home. Having a child or sibling in the NICU can be a scary experience, but Dr Terri is passionate about making sure families (including siblings!) are able to stay actively involved and bond with their baby through that process.
