We are so proud of these families for completing the program!!!

Join us this Sunday for an evening of remembrance and connection as we honor the precious lives that touched our hearts. The Hernando DeSoto Bridge will be lit in blue and pink in honor of our loved ones.

We remember the babies born sleeping;
Those we carried but never held;
Those we held but could not take home;
Those who came home but could not stay.

For more information, please call 901.516.6645.
Recommended Parking: Wagner Lot (210 Wagner Place) or Downtown Mobility Center (60 Beale Street).

NFP celebrated 15 years in Memphis yesterday!!!! Thank you for all of our community partners, funders and clients who attended!

Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital’s Nurse-Family Partnership program is celebrating 15 years of supporting first-time mothers.

Are you preparing to birth and parent your first child?

Are you less than 29 weeks along in your pregnancy?

Are you receiving WIC/TennCare?

Do you live in Shelby, Fayette, Haywood, Tipton, or Madison county, TN?

If you answered YES to these questions, you most likely qualify for a FREE home visitation nurse!

You’ll receive support from pregnancy until the child is 2 years old. You’ll be scheduled with your very own nurse to walk alongside you, help you reach your goals, and support you in your journey! They’ll provide education, community resource information, and encouragement along the way!

Breastfeeding can be one of the first steps in building a strong foundation for a baby’s health, but not every mom has access to the support she needs to start that journey.

This Black Maternal Health Week, we’re proud to share that 85% of Black moms in Nurse-Family Partnership initiated breastfeeding in 2022, well above the national average of 75%.

That’s the power of trusted relationships and care rooted in listening, respect and partnership.

NFP nurses walk alongside first-time moms, offering encouragement, education, and support during pregnancy and beyond. Helping to close the gap in breastfeeding rates and build healthier futures for Black families.

We love what we do!!!!

When Destaynae Jameson talks about Katie Montgomery, the nurse supporting her through Le Bonheur’s Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) program, her eyes grow bright and a wide smile breaks out across her face.

“My nurse is basically a part of my family at this point — she’s a friend,” said Jameson, who first met Montgomery in fall of 2022
after enrolling in NFP. “Katie is somebody I would invite to my baby’s christening, my baby’s birthday party … she’s on the guest list, and I say that because she looks after me as if I’m a sister or a friend. I can talk to my nurse about anything; there’s no such thing as a dumb question. Even if I just want to talk about life stuff, Katie is there.”

For Jameson, getting connected with NFP was a matter of being in the right place at the right time. While working for the Memphis New Mothers Study, she became pregnant with her first child and a nurse colleague suggested she look into Nurse-Family Partnership — an evidence-based home visitation program for first-time mothers. NFP participants are enrolled prenatally prior to their 29th week of pregnancy and regularly receive free, one-on-one in-home visits with a Le Bonheur nurse until their child’s second birthday.
