Nurses for Newborns was established in St. Louis, MO, in 1991 by newborn nurse Sharon Rohrbach and Robin Kinney. We opened the doors of our Tennessee office in 2001 thanks to the generosity of a former Tennessee Titan.<\/p>\n
Since then, NFN has made over 75,250 home visits to over 10,000 families in the eight counties we served in Middle Tennessee. In June of 2021, we moved into our current location \u2013 1606 Porter Road, Nashville, TN 37206 <\/a>on the Boedecker Foundation Collaborative Campus<\/a> in East Nashville.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/H4HB6gajJCA?rel=0″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#466D68″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_testimonial author=”NFN Client, 2022″ portrait_url=”https:\/\/nursesfornewborns.org\/tennessee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/11\/Mother-Holding-baby-and-kissing-cheek.jpg” quote_icon_color=”#7D5787″ quote_icon_background_color=”#FFFFFF” font_icon=”|||divi||400″ portrait_width=”200px” portrait_height=”200px” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” custom_css_testimonial_author=”margin-top:10px;” border_radii_portrait=”on|200px|200px|200px|200px” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n “It is so scary because you want to give your child a really good life.
