Cots 4 Tots - A Charity That Helps Families With Neonatal Intensive Care
|
||||
|
||||

If your child is ready, it's best to move them to the bed. This will prevent feelings of resentment towards their new sibling. It can also make them sleep better.

The Cots 4 Tots story
|
||||
|
||||
The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation is a nonprofit organization which supports the Marine Corps' annual toy drive. It provides administrative, advisory, financial logistical, and promotional support to local Toys for Tots Coordinators and many other services that the Marine Corps cannot provide. It also distributes informational and educational materials to the general public and arranges for national corporations to incorporate information about Toys for Tots into their paid advertisements, and runs an annual program of education for the public and public relations.
|
||||
|
||||
The Cots 4 Tots story began in 2010 with a fundraising appeal to Bristol's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at St Michael's Hospital. Since its founding, the charity has raised tens and thousands of pounds to support families of premature or sick babies in the West of England and South Wales. Its work includes providing accommodation for families in houses and providing state-of-the-art equipment for the NICU.
|
||||
|
||||
One of the main areas of focus is the Cots for Tots House, a free "home from home" for families staying at the hospital. It is located next to the NICU and allows parents to stay close to their infant. Since 2012 the charity has helped more than 2100 families stay in the home.
|
||||
|
||||
Families who stay at Cots For Tots House are reassured they aren't alone. They can discuss their experiences with other parents who are experiencing the exact issue. They also have access to a variety of facilities that will ensure their stay is as comfortable as is possible.
|
||||
|
||||
The charity also funds a music therapist who goes to the NICU to help reduce the stress and pain levels of infants and their parents. It has been proven to improve the quality of life for both the parents and patients. Music therapy also helps reduce the amount of medication needed to treat children, thereby saving both time and money for hospitals. The therapist employs specially-designed resonant instruments tuned to specific frequencies and play soothing tunes for infants. Additionally, the resonant instruments also produce vibrations that can relax parents and fathers.

Abbey Silvester's two kids, Alfie and Mollie, both spent time in the neonatal intensive care unit at St Michael's Hospital. She claims Cots for Tots was "an absolute Godsend", and that her family and she would not have been capable of coping without it. "You build friendships here, you forge a real community and feel a deep love for one another," she said. "Without it, who knows what our lives might look like?"

It is important to make the right decision for your baby's needs when choosing a crib. There are a range of sizes and styles available and you must consider what you need long-term. A cot should be durable and have a good railing. It should be easy to clean, and have a bed that can be removed. Some cots come with an adjustable height base that can be ideal for young children.
