Our Mission

HertsPrems is the 'Go To' group for parents of premature and Sick BabiesHertsPrems was launched by two mums Audrey and Rebelah (Bekki) who had preemie babies and met on their first preemie journey in Watford General Hospital Special Care Baby Unit in 2010. Where we are now Audrey and Bekki - Honoured at BIPER awards https://youtu.be/UKePF7x7AH0

Audrey's journey started at Luton and Dunstable Neonatal Intensive Care Unit after having a 23+5 weeker 1lb 30z in 2010 and then had another brief preemie encounter at WGH SCBU after having a 35+2 5lbs 3oz weeker in 2015.

Bekki is a young single widow left mourning her dearly departed husband at 20 weeks and delivered her baby 35+6 weeker 3lbs 5oz in 2010. So yes we have been on the roller coaster journey with babies born too small, too sick and too soon.

Together we formed HertsPrems as pacesetters who want to transform a generation to be a bench mark - we burn with the desire to help others flourish and thrive. We want to help maximise your lives to ensure that no one goes through the roller coaster Neonatal Journey alone.

Life isn't meant to be easy, it's a marathon even the fittest person will hit a brick wall but raw determination will get you to the finish line. We are on this marathon together, to run a race and finish strong.

Change starts with us!!! HertsPrems want to be the message of Hope!!!
