Coaching & Support for NICU Parents
About Michelle Ross- Preemie & NICU Parent Coach
I know firsthand the fear, uncertainty, and emotional weight that comes with having a baby in the NICU. Eight years ago, my daughter was born at just 27 weeks and spent 127 days in the NICU at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. That journey tested me in every way, but it also taught me resilience, advocacy, and the power of hope.
Today, as a Preemie Parent Coach and certified peer supporter through a NICU level IV Parent Buddy Program, I am dedicated to guiding parents through the challenges of the NICU and beyond. I provide a compassionate space where parents can process their emotions, build confidence, and develop the skills to advocate for their medically fragile children—both in the hospital and at home.
I believe no parent should feel alone in this journey. My mission is to Nurture Inner Courage Unwaveringly (NICU) by equipping parents with the tools, knowledge, and encouragement they need to move forward with strength, hope, and confidence.
If you're navigating life in the NICU or adjusting to life after discharge, I’m here to help you find clarity, resilience, and a supportive community that understands.
I work with NICU parents who feel overwhelmed, anxious, and unsure of how to navigate life during and after the NICU. From emotional stress to peace transitioning home with your baby
