What is a Caring Cradle?
It is a cooling unit, utilizing a discrete compressor, and designed to look like a basinet. The Caring Cradle is used in a hospital setting, immediately following stillbirth.  

What does a Caring Cradle provide?
More time with a stillborn baby.

How is it used?
Immediately following infant demise, it is brought in the room, plugged in, and turned on to begin cooling. It remains bedside as long as the mother wishes. The bottom of the basinet is cooled and the mother will place her baby there, off and on, to keep the baby's body cool. The cooling allows the mother to keep her baby with her in her room, and prevents further traumas like having go to the morgue to visit her baby before discharge. The mother now has the unrushed time to do the things all mothers long to do. 

The Caring Cradle gives families more time to hold their child; time to sing to them; time to get pictures; time to rest and wake up with still more time with their child; time for extended family and clergy to arrive. 

At Caring Cradle we know nurses want to provide more peace for mothers of stillborn babies. To do this, mothers need more time with their baby to say goodbye. This problem is, in these moments of crisis, hospitals are not equipped to provide mothers and families with the time they need, the time they want. Nurses know the body of a tiny baby will immediately begin showing naturals changes following death. Those changes are not kind to see.   

A Caring Cradle gives grieving families time they will never have again with their child.  

Now nurses have the tool they need to give mothers more time, knowing they do not have to rush the separation to save mothers from dramatic changes. The unit is self-contained, requires no supervision by the nurses, no training, and has no tubes or wires. The Caring Cradle helps the nurses.

Many mothers keep their babies in their room, utilizing the cooling functionality of the Caring Cradle, until they discharge home.
