I'm Katie, a certified neonatal OCCUPATIONAL therapist, founder of blooming littles, & NICU mom!

I know how challenging it is to build confidence as a NICU clinician. NICU families are often underserved, while NICU providers are overwhelmed.

I've taken evidence-based data and feedback from hundreds of NICU families to give you the tools needed to create positive, family-integrated, and neuro-supportive experiences at the NICU bedside, without the overwhelm.
