The Hushabye Story
Our new facility, located at 3003 E. McDowell Road, Phoenix, is now complete and ready to welcome Moms and babies.
View our video and listen to our story from Hushabye Nursery’s Founder, Tara Sundem and President, Brandon Clark. The Mission is ambitious and the results are inspiring.
Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)
Newborns exposed to opioids in the womb are at risk for a condition called neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). NAS symptoms can include painful tremors; excessive crying and irritability; and problems with sleeping, feeding, and breathing. NAS is associated with myriad risk factors that could affect the well-being and development of a newborn. NAS is responsible for profound social cost and human suffering. From 2004 to 2014, NAS prevalence increased 433%, accounting for $2.9 billion in hospitalization costs (Boston Medical Center, 2018) straining national healthcare systems.
The Covid-19 pandemic exacerbated opioid use disorder and incidences of overdose increased by approximately 30% nationwide, making Hushabye Nursery’s best practice NAS care services even more essential.

Newborns brought to Hushabye Nursery for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) treatment have a decreased length of stay compared to newborns who receive their treatment in the NICU. We believe every baby deserves a chance for a healthy start.

Did you know that when our families join our classes and participate in programming they receive "Hush Money" which they can use to purchase diapers, wipes, and other baby supplies? Programs like this help keep our families connected and involved even after they go home. Right now, we are in need of diapers, sizes 2-5!

Wonderful tour and discussion with First Lady Angela Ducey and Maria Cristina Fuentes, Executive Director of the Governor's Office of Youth, Faith and Family (GOYFF). We appreciate your support and kind hearts for the tiniest victims of Arizona's opioid crisis! #goyffaz #mariafuentes
Words cannot express our deep appreciation to The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation for the life-changing impact they are making throughout our community as shared in their Impact Report. We are grateful for their heartfelt action that spurs others to do the same.
Moms/parents/caregivers work with peer mentors and learn to support their newborns through withdrawal. If necessary, we help create a child services case plan to avoid removal or work toward reunification of the child. Detailed case management includes treatment, safety plans, advocacy, legal referral, and documentation assistance.
We are here for you; learn more at https://www.hushabyenursery.org
Happy World Breastfeeding Week!
