The Cuddler Program

The Cuddler Program at The New Life Center at HCA Florida Palms West Hospital is designed to provide comfort and support to babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) when they need it the most.

Research shows that when a baby is cuddled, it helps to calm them, manage their stress and improve brain development. Our cuddlers are specially trained to hold, give hugs and more when families cannot be there.
