I’m Savannah Mahon, BSN, RN—a NICU nurse, NICU mom, and the voice behind Savannah Speaks.
When my son spent 48 days in the NICU, I learned what it feels like to be the parent waiting for answers, celebrating tiny victories, and trying to make sense of an unfamiliar world.
I created The NICU Parent Playbook to bring my nursing knowledge and experience as a mom together—with space for your questions, clear explanations, and practical support along the way.
My mission is to give parents hope for the future, confidence through knowledge, and a voice when they feel alone.
