Why you need to attend the Vital Neonatal Conference

Moms of preemies, unite! Baby Preemie and Me will be hosting the very first Vital Neonatal Conference for Professionals and Parents, in Nelson Mandela Bay on 1-2 December 2017 at the Marriott Protea Hotel in Summerstrand.

“The conference provides a platform for guidance to be shared on the best practice and advancements in Neonatal care, Preterm birth and care, Brain and Sensory development, breastfeeding, nutrition for mother and child, Neuroscience of Zero separation, Kangaroo care, Newborn Hearing screening and even Family centered care, with a pre-conference session on Infection control in the NICU.”

Okay that was a lot of words. In a nutshell, you want to attend this event because you want to learn from super clever experts on all things baby-related, with a magnifying glass specifically aimed at premature birth and how to help your preemie baby thrive! What kind of experts, I hear you say. Well, let’s just say they all have very fancy titles behind their name. See here:
