Cooper University Hospital in Camden, NJ. is an inner-city hospital that serves the needs of a diverse financial population. A large number of the babies are born into poverty level families and to young single moms.
When a baby is ready to go home, the hospital supplies the diaper, hat and shirt the baby has on. The blanket and any other clothing is supposed to be supplied by the family. In many cases, the only going home clothing is what the hospital has received in donations.
The need at Cooper is great, so please do what you can.
I want to thank the members of AC4C who participated in the April 2008 group project. You were more than generous!
Items are needed for the NICU, Mother/Infant unit and Labor & Delivery.

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
The NICU is a Level III facility, featuring 25 Intensive care beds,two isolation nurseries, and a nine bed transitional nursery. The unit is usually full. They do not dress the babies, (1-3 lbs), in the NICU except for diapers, as they are on warming beds or under heat lamps. In the NICU transitional nursery the babies wear hats and diaper shirts or gowns. Patterns for these item approved for hospital use can be found here. They are marked in red.
Holiday hats, (about 4 pounds through full term, with 4 - 6 lbs the most needed), and blankets (isolette & receiving), are most welcome! They like to deck the babies out on holidays!!
Bright, cheerful colors and prints are welcome, as are the softer pastels. Hats and blankets of all sizes are always badly needed.

Labor and Delivery Unit
The items used in this unit will be the only clothing the parents will ever be able to provide for their little ones. Please make them as special as possible.Sizes range from the tiny early loss babies up to full term with a greater number of the smaller ones. I have been told that they never seem to have enough items for boys.
NEEDS for Fall/Halloween deelivery: They have requested burial clothing in the smaller sizes for early loss. A favorite at the hospital are the little burial wraps with a pocket.
1. Burial wraps/buntings - sizes from tiny early loss through full term. They also like the2. Burial outfits - size, same as above - The gowns do NOT have to be lined, but if you do not mind doing it, it does make them nicer. A complete layette would be a blanket, hat, booties and gown or other clothing item. Separate items can be matched up upon arrival at Ginden's home.
little fetal demise pouches - knit, crochet or sewn
3. Blankets - all sizes - used when presenting the baby to parents, for final photos, and for burial. Often used when other clothing is not available.
*Please use ONLY ties in the back, not buttons or velcro. The ties make the gowns more size-adjustable and are easier to use than buttons. Be sure the gown is open all the way in the back.
*Colors: any of the soft pastels and of course, white.
*These items may be shared with the NICU, depending on need at time of delivery.
*See pattern links for suggestions: Sewing, Crochet, Knitting , Machine Knitting

Guidelines for Fabric & Yarn
TO WASH OR NOT TO WASH
Please **wash the items before sending. Use a mild detergent made for baby clothes.
In the second rinse, use about 1 cup of white vinegar. DO NOT use fabric softener in the washer or dryer. It can cause skin irritation.
The white vinegar helps remove unwanted odors, and any detergent residue. It also acts as a softener and helps to remove static.
Any doubts about odors, have someone not living in your home give the items a "sniff test".
Fabric should be washed before cutting. Washing shrinks fabrics such as flannel and other 100% cotton at least 2%, and also removes the sizing, which can be a skin irritant.
Allow for shrinkage when buying your yardage.
** If the items need to be washed and you are unable to do it, just put in a note when you send them to Ginden.
.........................................................................................................................................................................
YARNS TO USE
* 4-ply yarns such as Red Heart Super Saver are ok to use for:
- Blankets for all the units, provided the items are washed in order to soften them.
- Clothing for the Mother/Baby unit provided the items are washed in order to soften them.
- Burial wraps and buntings, if they are lined with a soft fabric, such as pre-washed flannel.
- Full term loss items that are lined or washed to soften.
It is NOT suitable for next-to-the-skin items for the NICU, (hats, booties, etc.).
* 4-ply Caron Simply Soft:
Can be used for any item in any unit
* 3-ply yarns such as Red Heart Soft Baby, Bernat Softee Baby, Lion Baby Soft, Peter Pan DK,
Sirdar DK weight, etc.
Can be used for any item in any unit
........................................................................................................................................................................
FABRIC
Use 100% cotton for ease in laundering. Burial clothing may be made with finer fabric.
Fleece may be used for blankets and going home clothing such as pants, jackets, tops, buntings. Not for hats in the NICU as they do not have enough stretch to them.
*Keep in mind that the ONLY items that we send that are used in the hospital are blankets, hats, booties, gowns, and shirts. They do not dress the babies until they are ready to go home. The exception is on a holiday when the babies may be dressed for a short time for visits by parents.
