New program alert!
We are thrilled to be bringing a new offering to the table in 2025. Strong Starts for Tiny Sparks will be a series of monthly webinars on topics of interest to the community.
Bringing your baby home from the NICU is a huge milestone—one that comes with excitement, but also new challenges. You want to support their development, but between feeds, naps, and everyday life, who has time to “add in” play?
✨ Here’s the secret: Play doesn’t have to be something extra. It can be part of what you’re already doing! ✨
In this free webinar with Tiny Sparks & paediatric physiotherapist Nicole Pates (@nicole_kidsphysio), we’ll show you how to:
✔️ Make daily routines (like bath time & mealtime) playful for babies and toddlers under 3 🛁🍽️
✔️ Use simple tricks to boost connection & communication 🗣️💛
✔️ Turn “must-dos” into FUN moments 🎶✨
📅 Date & Time
📍 Online | FREE | 27th February at 2pm
👶 Perfect for parents of NICU graduates aged 0-3 years!

A Christmas spent in hospital is an incredibly challenging time for families, especially those who are separated from their family or friends. Having first hand experience of Christmas in NICU our team have been providing special occasion gifts not just for Christmas, but other occasions too, since our inception in 2013. This year was no different.
We were super grateful to have two lovely volunteers who used their corporate volunteer days to come along to Tiny Sparks HQ and pack a whopping 325 Christmas gifts! Whilst the largest Neonatal Units are located in Perth some country hospitals do have dedicated bed space to care for baby’s needing some additional care and attention after birth. Our programs ensure that every family, no matter their location receive the support they need.
Our Christmas gifts are generously supported by the small Perth family run business Foote & Flame with stockings generously sewn and donated by the Tiny Sparks Crafty Collective.
