A HUGE thank you Baby Sensory!
Thank you!
During the month of March 2019 Baby Sensory ran a ‘Senseathon’ to raise funds for The Little Miracles Trust. This was a fun, themed event where parents and their babies and/or toddlers were invited to come along in Superhero themed
fancy dress and were tasked with completing special fun ‘superhero challenges’ during the Senseathon classes, helping to rescue the Sun from the evil Saby Bensory while also raising funds and awareness to support other babies and families during their neonatal journey.
You can check out some of the awesome photos from the event below
Our heartfelt thanks to Baby Sensory and all those who participated in this wonderful event and choosing to support the work of The Little Miracles Trust.
This support follows on from similar overseas Baby Sensory Senseathon events which raise funds for other neonatal causes (eg, Tommys in the UK).
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank Toni and Andy from Baby Sensory Christchurch for sharing the neonatal journey of their gorgeous son Harry. You can read all about Harry’s unexpected early arrival here.

Thank you Baby Sensory!
Thanks so much for sharing your personal story!
We get a lot of positive feedback from families in a neonatal unit who read these stories and feel strength, hope and positivity knowing that they are not alone going through these experiences and feeling certain emotions.
If you would like to discuss sharing the story of your neonatal journey, we’d love to hear from you.
