What is Kangaroo Care  

Kangaroo Care (KC) is an intervention for premature and low-birth weight infants and their families. This technique comprises prolonged skin-to-skin contact between the parents and the new-born baby. It empowers parents, allowing them to play a significant role in the care and survival of their baby within the Neonatal Intensive Care setting.

KC is an effective way to meet the baby’s need of warmth, breastfeeding, stimulation, and safety.
