Supporting Families in the Neonatal Unit

A Special Thanks from Simpsons Special Care Babies

Investing in Comfort and Supporting Families

At Simpsons Special Care Babies, we strive to ensure that families facing the challenges of neonatal care can focus on what truly matters – their babies. Every little comfort can make a significant difference, which is why we are delighted to announce that we have been able to fund £7,518.00 towards new seating for the neonatal unit in Edinburgh. Thanks to the incredible support from our donors, we have purchased five high-quality chairs that will be a welcome addition for mums, dads, and carers spending time with their little ones.

Creating a Bonding Experience

In the neonatal unit, families are often by their baby’s side for extended periods of time, whether it's reading to them, talking softly through the incubator, or providing crucial skin-to-skin contact and feeding. The new chairs will allow parents to do all of this while having a little extra comfort, making a world of difference during long and sometimes emotional hours spent in the unit.


Enhancing the Family Experience

These chairs are not just about luxury—they are about creating a more comfortable and supportive environment for parents and carers to bond with their babies. Being close to a newborn in neonatal care is vital for both the baby and the parents, and providing an environment that fosters that connection is one of our main priorities. The benefits of these new chairs will be felt during moments of infant feeding, cuddling, and simply being present with their baby, offering a practical but meaningful improvement to their overall experience.

Gratitude to Our Supporters

We couldn’t have achieved this without the generosity of our supporters. Your contributions are directly impacting the quality of care and comfort for families in Edinburgh’s neonatal unit, and for that, we are deeply grateful. Every donation helps us to continue our mission of making a difference in the lives of these families, and we are proud to have you as part of our community.


Thank you for helping us ensure that families have not just the medical care they need, but also the emotional and physical support to be as close as possible to their babies.
