Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Mary Farrelly

NICU nurse, doula, educator, and founder of The NICU Translator. I created this course to help bridge the gap between birth work and NICU care — because families deserve support at every stage, not just the parts we plan for.

I’ve supported hundreds of families through NICU stays, and I’ve trained doulas around the world to do the same — with clarity, compassion, and confidence. This course is your first step.
