MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Every holiday, the nurses at hospitals in Memphis like to create a special day for the newborns in the NICU. 

Easter is no different.

Saint Francis Hospital nurses came up with a festive Easter theme backdrop and props for the adorable babies to take part in a special photo shoot.

“The birth of a baby is already a memorable time for families, but we wanted to add to the experience by giving parents the chance to get some special photos that will serve as a keepsake and fun, sweet memory,” said Kerry Thompson, NICU nurse at Saint Francis Hospital. “We did something similar for other holidays, such as Saint Patrick’s Day and Valentine’s Day,” she added.

Baptist Women’s Hospital also celebrated Easter early with a visit to the NICU by the Easter bunny. They said donations can be made for the NICU to the Baptist Memorial Health Care Foundation: https://bmhgiving.org/.
