Please join Tara Sundem, Co-founder and Executive Director of Hushabye Nursery, and the Hushabye team for an open house on June 7 to see how we embrace substance exposed babies and their caregivers with compassionate, evidence-based care that changes the course of their entire lives. Lunch will be provided.
Thousands of babies are born each year to mothers who are using opioids. The newborns enter the world in withdrawal – some fussy and sweating, others struggling to feed. Now doctors have a new treatment. Mom.

Most babies with NAS are treated in the neonatal intensive care unit. NICU teams do amazing work, and countless families owe their children’s lives to those dedicated nurses and doctors. But NICUs are not set up to treat babies with NAS. Hushabye Nursery in Phoenix is. NAS is what they treat. It’s all they treat. 24/7. It was founded by a neonatal nurse practitioner who has a unique understanding of NAS.
Hushabye Nursery is excited to announce a $100,000 grant from Thunderbirds Charities help us care for the tiniest victims of the opioid crisis – babies born withdrawing from opioids they were exposed to in the womb (NAS) – and their parents who are struggling with opioid use disorder.
