Our tagline is “Together for a better beginning,” reflecting the importance of this family connection in the critical early weeks and months of an infant’s life and its linkage to improved health outcomes. Transportation issues, including the increasing cost of gas, hospital parking fees, or medically unable to drive are significant barriers that many families in San Diego County, Los Angeles, and Orange County must overcome to be with their babies. Miracle Babies newest initiative, My Brain & My Baby, aims to support mothers suffering from perinatal anxiety or depression with early detection and acute medical care. By providing free transportation and mental health assistance to families, Miracle Babies helps alleviate the stressors of everyday life resulting in better health outcomes for the growth and development of baby.
