Over the past year, your support has helped Hushabye Nursery continue changing the trajectory for families impacted by the opioid crisis. Through compassionate, evidence-based care, we have now served over 2,000 babies and their parents, helping families heal together and build stronger futures. Our innovative care model reduces the average stay for babies experiencing withdrawal from 22 days in a traditional NICU to just 7.7 days, allowing bonding and recovery to begin sooner. We are grateful to walk alongside families—and to have a community like you making this life-changing work possible.

This special evening brings together our community of World Changers who believe every baby deserves a healthy start. What began as a hopeful vision has become a powerful night of impact — raising critical funds to care for substance-exposed newborns and the families who love them.

Hushabye Nursery partners with local jails and correctional facilities to support pregnant and parenting moms during one of the most vulnerable times in their lives.


Our team leads parenting classes inside facilities, provides education on substance use and recovery, and helps mothers prepare for their baby’s arrival, even while incarcerated.


But we don’t stop there.


We assist in coordinating thoughtful release plans, so moms have:

  • Connection to outpatient treatment and case management
  • Safe housing resources
  • Pediatric follow-up care
  • Parenting support
  • Ongoing recovery services

Our goal is simple but powerful: keep families together whenever it is safe and possible.


By meeting mothers where they are - sometimes quite literally behind bars - we help break cycles of shame, isolation, and generational trauma. We replace them with hope, preparation, and a pathway forward.



Because every baby deserves a healthy start - and every mother deserves a chance to become the parent she longs to be.


Now you know.

Carol has been one of the nurse leaders at Hushabye for the last three years. Her hilarious sense of humor is only outmatched by her compassionate heart and incredible kindness towards everyone. Carol is often mentioned on Client Satisfaction Surveys for the excellent care and support she provides. And as any colleague can attest — the shifts are always more fun when Carol is working.


We are so grateful she is part of the Hushabye team!

Memory Maker Photo Day was a beautiful success - thanks to our incredible volunteer photographer, Ana Gaxiola. Thirty-two Hushabye families returned to have photos taken, reconnect with staff, and spend time with one another. Moments like these keep families connected during the first year after birth - a time when continued support and community can make a meaningful difference in a mother’s health and well-being.
