We want to thank Mias's Miracles for visiting our and helping them express their artistic side! 👨‍🎨

Inspired by the glass-blown structures of renowned artist Dale Chihuly, patients created their own art with pipe cleaners, styrofoam, beads, and foil. The kids had a great time and created some truly unique works of art! 💙 💙

It’s going to be a frigid weekend, and with Burn Awareness Week right around the corner, we’re sharing a few simple ways to help keep kids safe from burns while staying warm.

⚠️ Store fire-starting items safely
Make a habit of keeping matches, lighters and gasoline out of sight and reach of children.

🧑‍🍳 Kitchen burn prevention
• Create a kid-free zone — teach young children to stay at least 3 feet away from the stove and cooking areas
• Cook on back burners when possible and turn pot handles inward

🔥 Fireplace & hot-glass safety
• Use a safety screen or gate around fireplaces
• Keep fireplace remotes out of sight and reach of children

🧯 Space heater safety
• Keep space heaters at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn
• Always supervise children and pets when heaters are on
• Turn space heaters off when leaving the room

🕯️ Fire prevention reminders
• Don’t overplug — avoid plugging multiple appliances into one outlet
• Keep candles at least 12 inches away from anything that can burn, and blow them out before leaving the room or going to sleep

Stay warm — and most importantly, stay safe this weekend. ❤️

Congratulations to Abby on winning the DAISY Award for extraordinary work in Nursing! 🌼 🏆

Abby is the kind of nurse who is always willing to go the extra mile for our and an excerpt from her nomination story speaks volumes about her dedication. You can read that below:

"One night, Abby had a patient on an EEG and could not leave the room. The patient was feeling bored and cooped up. Abby made sure she got all of her patients settled so she could be free to spend some extra time in this patient's room, and then she had a "makeup slumber party" with this patient. She gave her a makeover and did her nails and helped this patient feel like she was at a silly sleepover instead of in the hospital. I have no doubt that Abby changed the course of this patient's hospital stay with this kind act.”

At Wolfson Children’s Hospital, it’s nurses like Abby who remind us that caring for children is more than just a job — it’s a calling. We’re so glad she’s on our team! 💙

Let’s hear it for Abby in the comments! 🎉

Measles cases are being reported across the country, including in Florida. If you’re a parent, it’s normal to have questions.

Dr. Shalika Katugaha, our system director of Infectious Diseases, breaks down what families should know about measles, the MMR vaccine and ways to help protect children — especially those under age 1.

Not sure about your or your child’s immunization status? Your primary care provider can order a blood test to check immunity to all three components of the MMR vaccine.

We were so touched by the generosity of the folks at V for Victory last week. They stopped by to drop off LEGO sets for our , bringing so much joy to our halls! ☀️

These may seem like small gestures, but they have a genuinely enormous impact. Our kids are going to have so much fun building new worlds with these LEGOS! 💙 💙

After 212 days in the NICU, Honor is finally going home, and our hearts are soaring right along with her. 🎉

For more than seven months, we watched Honor fight with a strength far beyond her size, while her parents, Cody and Celia, were right there by her side. They spent holidays, from the Fourth of July to Christmas, in the NICU, pouring every ounce of love, faith and hope into their daughter. Their kindness and unwavering belief became a light for everyone who crossed their path.

From the very beginning, we knew Honor was a fighter. There were hard days and hopeful ones, but through it all, she kept proving just how powerful love can be. Seeing her progress through her parents’ eyes felt like witnessing a miracle, day after day.

In a world that can feel uncertain, Honor’s journey reminds us that faith sustains, love endures and miracles still happen. There’s no doubt she’s heading home with the most incredible parents.

Congratulations to Honor, Cody and Celia. Thank you for trusting us with Honor’s care — it has truly been an honor. 💙💙💙

There were smiles on the faces of everyone in the hall when we awarded Stephanie, a Clinical Resource Coordinator for the OR, a much-deserved DAISY Award! 🌼 🏆

Stephanie is so beloved by her colleagues that she received THREE separate nominations for this award. We could write endlessly about how invaluable Stephanie is to our team, but we thought this excerpt from one of her nominations summed it up nicely!

“The OR is such a busy department with many moving parts. Stephanie's ability to multitask on such a grand level is a skill to be admired and recognized. She truly makes a difference every single day and is such an incredible asset to our pediatric population. Our organization is fortunate to have her, and she is so deserving of this recognition.”

Congratulations Stephanie! Thank you for all you do for our , families and team members!

Let's hear it for Stephanie in the comments! 🎉 💙
