William was born at 35+1 weeks due to preeclampsia on the 28th December 2016. All the nurses made sure I knew what all his machines were for and made me feel 100 times better about the fact that he was not coming home with me and didn't try and persuade me to carry on breast feeding when I couldn't cope with it being a pump and not him! William is now 6 months old and is coming on in leaps and bounds! Thank you for everything ’┐Į

When my twin boys were born at 29w5d it was the scariest time of our lives. All of the staff played a crucial part in saving our boys lives and we will be for ever grateful to each and everyone of them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, you're all amazing! Xx

Our daughter Robyn was born at 33+6 weeks (4lbs8oz) In May 2014 and spent 17 days in Barnsley neonatal unit. We were all well looked after by the lovely staff. Thank you so much.....Robyn is now a happy, healthy, clever and quite tall 3 year old

Our Daughter, Emily-Grace was born at 30 weeks +2 days and weighed 2lb 13oz. We would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff on the neonatal unit not only for the love and care you gave to Emily-Grace but all the support you gave to us as parents and got us through a difficult time. Emily-Grace spent 8 weeks and 4 days on the neonatal unit and during that time we got to know most of the staff and you are all truly amazing and do a fantastic job. Thank you, love Lisa, Mark and Emily-Grace xx ’┐Į xx

My twin girls were born 5wks early and although I hated seeing them so helpless in their incubators I cannot express how grateful I am to each and every person who looked after them. They were only in special care for 10 days but the staff made those ten days more easier to get through, so welcoming and reassuring. Plus they dont mind me phoning at daft hours in the morning just to be told they were ok lol. I owe each and every one a heartfelt thankyou and will be eternally thankful for the service they provided

My son was diagnosed with a collapsed lung when he was 24 hours old and spent 10 days in scbu. The staff were all fantastic, not just with him, but also me and my husband. They helped us to understand what was happening when he was at his worst and when he was on the mend gave us lots of support for breastfeeding. Ernie is nearly 8 months now and is doing really well and we will always be so grateful to everyone in the unit.

My son was born at Jessops (due to previous pregnancy complications) he was born at 28 weeks, spent the first 9 weeks in Jessops before being well enough to move to Barnsley SCBU (our home town) where we was told he would spend another few months before being well enough to go home. Between the staff in SCBU and the community nursing team we were able to get Riley home after just 2 short weeks. The staff were amazing and the 'relaxed' atmosphere was much nicer than the hectic-ness of Jessops. I was made to feel like a mum and not an on-looker.

My son Bradley was born at 35 weeks on 10 April 2013 due to prom, weighing 5.8lb he's now a healthy happy 3 year old. And my daughter Lacey was born at 32 weeks on 26 may 2016 due to placenta previa. Weighing 4lb she's almost 8 month now weighing 15.6lb and doing amazing. Both of them spent time in Barnsley scbu. If it wasn't for the staff at Barnsley, my little darlings wouldn't be here today. Massive thank you to the staff. Xx

My little boy was born in May 2016 at 32 weeks + 6 days. We were only in for 12 days but in that time the staff who looked after my baby did an absolutely fantastic job. They didn't just care for him but they also looked after me and without their help and support I don't know how I would have gotten through that time. A special thank you to all of you, from the bottom of my heart!! ŌØż xx

My little boy was born at 32wks on 6.2.12 due me having pre-eclamsia. When he was just 5days old he devolped septasemia which delayed hes stay in scbu to 4 week..i can not thank the staff enough for all there help n support. Their an amazing team!!

My baby was born 9 week early in scarborough hospital on the 29th of April 2013, she was transferred to barnsley that same evening whilst I fought for my life in scarborough, thankfully and through pure miracle I survived and my daughter allana thrived with the fantastic help of the doctors and nurses up at barnsley neo natal, she was 9 days old when I saw her for the first time after I was stable enough to be transferred home to barnsley hospital. Amazing moment and we will never forget what those hero's did For our daughter. She's now 3 and full of cheek and smiles thriving well with her 3 big Brother's Ōś║’┐Į xxx

I would like to say a big thank you to all staff on neonatal unit’┐Į my son was born 33+1 weeks, he was with you for 3 weeks he came home yesterday.. you all have done an amazing job looking after him.. thank you again..xxxx

I gave birth at 34+4 days weighing 4lb 15 and he were cared for on the special care unit for 2 and a half weeks. As a first time parent it were quite scary being taken up to ward and seeing him in an incubator on drips when you don't know what was wrong with them. I just want to say a huge thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the help, comfort and care you not only gave to my baby but us as a family. Your all amazing and for that I can't thank you enough aspecially Nat and Sarah who looked after him a few times you made us feel so much at ease whilst he were on the ward and made us feel better leaving him at night. You all have a real passion and love for your jobs which anyone can see thanks again for everything. He's now 8months and was weighed 4 weeks ago at 21.5lb such a cheeky little choppy he is.

I couldn't not thank the staff on this ward enough for everything they did for our beautiful baby Louie. Born at 28 plus 2 and came home 3 and half weeks before his due date thanks to the amazing staff and everything they did for our baby.

Fantastic, my little girl was 8 weeks early, the staff we brilliant. She spent her first Christmas & new year there. She is now five and is brilliant. We are so grateful to them all anf always will be x

Brilliantly cared for twin grandsons born 12 weeks early, couldnŌĆÖt have asked for more. Truly world class treatment.

Amazing staff that care for your baby like they are their own! Our boy was full term but still had to go to scbu for a week! Couldn't have asked for better people to care for our boy! Angels all of them
