Funds

– The Nicolasfonds supports babies with extra care. It aims to provide assistance to parents with children who have been in the neonatal intensive care service for a long time and still need extra care after discharge. 

MiraLouise Fonds (St. Jan Brugge) wants to offer financial support to projects focused on the development of children who have experienced problems during or shortly after birth and therefore suffer from “Cerebral Palsy”.

Info in case of death

– The Berrefonds wants to be a handhold for (grand)parents, family and friends at the moment when the unthinkable happens to them: the loss of a child.

Beyound the clouds offers free professional photo sessions for star parents at the loss of their baby. This with great respect, experience and love for precious memories. 

Neonato Library

The NeonatoBiB includes a wide selection of books for parents and children.
