Volunteering
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Miracle Babies Foundation!
Miracle Babies Foundation is committed to recognising, supporting and enhancing the involvement and contribution of volunteers in delivering the programs and services of our organisation. We are delighted you are considering joining our wonderful Miracle Babies team to help support premature and sick newborns, their families and the hospitals that care for them.
Our Miracle volunteers provide an integral service within Miracle Babies Foundation, helping many families through their Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) or Special Care Nursery (SCN) journey and through raising awareness and vital funds. All volunteers of Miracle Babies Foundation work together for a common goal of providing "better, healthier outcomes for newborns and their families challenged by prematurity or sickness".
As part of the Miracle Babies NurtureProgram Volunteer recruitment process, including NurtureLine, NurtureTime and NurtureGroup, we ask that you have experienced having a child in NICU or SCN to better assist our families through your own experiences.
If you have not experienced a child in NICU or SCN, there are many other ways in which you can give back and we welcome your help! We have several nationwide events and fundraisers throughout the year, as well as administrative and resource packing opportunities at our Head Office in Smeaton Grange, NSW. Please keep an eye on our website and Seek Volunteer to stay in the loop for any upcoming opportunities.

Please note:
- Volunteers applying for NurtureTime and NurtureGroup must meet the criteria of having a baby cared for in NICU/SCN.
