Nell and the Neonatal unit is an app aimed at primary school aged children. It is being developed as a tool to help older siblings of babies requiring a neonatal unit admission to understand the environment and to have strategies for coping with the resulting emotional challenges such an admission can bring to a family. 

We have recently launched the app within the Thames Valley & Wessex (TVW) Neonatal network and it is already in use across a number of units both within TVW and across England. The app is designed to be generic and therefore applicable for use within any neonatal unit.

If you are interested in using the app with families in your unit , or would be interested in receiving some promotional posters, please register your interest below.
