Welcome New Parents

Small Moments Big Impact (SMBI) is a website with videos of parents talking about their experiences with a new baby. It was made by pediatricians and mothers to encourage you to talk to your baby’s provider about what’s really going on with you. These discussions allow your baby’s provider to understand you and your family and help you to shape your baby’s health and development.
