Tiny Premmies Thrive
A series of live online microhealth sessions that focus on what matters most in the early weeks & months beyond NICU/SCN.
Why Thrive?
Because so many premmie families tell us “discharge is only the beginning” - Susan.
After round-the-clock care in NICU, parents report feeling overwhelmed & isolated once home “with those statistics running through your head.” - Sarah
Tiny Prems Thrive bridges the gap between hospital and home. Empowering parents to keep connected, informed and build confidence.
“ReadyStepGrow was the safety-net that caught us” - Jessica.
Who is it for?
Suitable for parents/caregivers with Tiny Premmies 0-4 months corrected age.
An evidence-based, microhealth series for families wanting the best start whilst navigating the transition from NICU/SCN to home.
“It’s easier than going it alone” - Jacinta

“We have a moral responsibility to empower premmie parents with the knowledge & skills known to support their child’s development.” - Simone
In 2012, Simone teamed up with a group of passionate health professionals to create ReadyStepGrow — Empowering Parents of Prems. After supporting hundreds of families and listening closely to what really helps, the program evolved into a trusted early intervention framework for children born preterm (0–4 years), gently bridging the gap between NICU and school commencement.
Simone brings a rare blend of experience — from neonatal nursing and special education to health promotion and parenting support. She’s a warm, wise voice in the world of early intervention and has been invited to speak at conferences and featured in the Sydney Morning Herald, ABC’s Baby Talk, and US based PreemieWorld . Her goals? Empowered Parents. Bright Futures. Best Outcomes.
“Some people see a problem and say, ‘someone should do something about that.’ Very few can say, ‘that someone is me.’ But Simone can and every day I work with her, I learn more about how to build the world we want to live in.” Dr Katherine Sanchez
When you know more, you worry less.
Because babies born preterm face many layered risks — and because we know their relationships and environments shape their development — Tiny Prems Thrive is here to help.
Drawn from the ReadyStepGrow program, Tiny Prems Thrive empowers families with evidence-based strategies for the best possible start.
