The NICU Cuddler Program supports the development and growth of premature babies by providing advanced volunteer “cuddlers”. The volunteers are hospital-trained to interact with premature babies during times when their parents can’t be with them at the hospital.
Our cuddlers go through extensive training beyond what is required of a typical volunteer at the hospital. You must be a hospital volunteer in good standing for a minimum of six months prior to being considered for the cuddler training program.
Available at Sisters of Charity Hospital and Mercy Hospital of Buffalo only.
