Introducing the NICU Parent Support Audio & Podcast Channel

I am pleased to announce that the NICU Parent Support Audio & Podcast Channel is available now for your listening.

The channel has already been described as a "useful and comforting guide" and "a very powerful creation" one that should be of significant assistance to NICU families.

I created the NICU Parent Podcast Channel as part of a course that I took this summer on Podcasting for Teaching through the @ONE's Online Courses.

About the NICU Parent Support Audio & Podcast Channel
The NICU Parent Support Audio & Podcast Channel is a series of audio messages of information, Support and encouragement for parents and families who have babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) or the Intensive Care Nursery (ICN).

This audio channel is a collection of audio messages that provide information, encouragement, support and comfort for NICU parents. Some of the recordings are longer, more informative episodes; other episodes are shorter, recorded messages of encouragement, support and comfort.


The Channel Line Up
The NICU Parent Support Audio & Podcast Channel has 5 episodes so far. Each episode also has a downloadable PDF file of the transcript for the episode that you can read along with the audio message.
  • Episode 1: Introduction to the NICU Parent Support Audio and Podcast Channel
  • Episode 2: Dreaming New Dreams after Picking up the Pieces of Broken Dreams
  • Episode 3: Searching for Answers to the Difficult Questions
  • Episode 4: A Special Healing Blessing - Version 1: Tibetan Bowls, Chimes & Bells
  • Episode 4: A Special Healing Blessing - Version 2: Traditional Lullaby
The plan is to get a collection of podcasts that parents can listen to one daily during the early days of the NICU for information, encouragement and support.
