Product Details

This NICU nurse sweatshirt shows a sleeping baby bunny with a pink bow, swaddled in a striped hospital blanket and cuddling a tiny heart, all nestled inside a stethoscope shaped like a heart. Pastel hearts float around it, "NICU" is spelled in stitched pink, blue and mint letters, and a ribbon below reads "Tiny Humans, Big Hearts".

It is gentle and sweet, just like the work it celebrates. Browse more specialty designs in our nurse sweatshirt collection.

Made for neonatal intensive care nurses

NICU nurses care for the smallest and most fragile patients in the hospital, often for weeks or months, and they support worried parents through some of the hardest days of their lives. This design honors that blend of clinical skill and tenderness. The swaddle blanket is a detail every NICU nurse will recognize.

It suits neonatal nurses, NICU nurse practitioners, respiratory therapists and anyone working in special care nurseries. Nursing students who loved their NICU rotation and plan to specialize will appreciate it too.

Why give a NICU nurse sweatshirt

Families who spent time in the NICU often look for a way to thank the nurses who cared for their baby. A cozy sweatshirt with a meaningful message is a lasting thank-you that nurses actually wear. It is also a lovely gift for NICU Awareness Month in September, Nurses Week in May, or a coworker's birthday.

Units sometimes order matching NICU sweatshirts for team photos and fundraising events. Orders of 12 or more get 25% off through our wholesale program.

Comfort and color

The soft cotton-blend fleece is warm without being heavy, which is ideal for climate-controlled units. The relaxed unisex fit layers over scrubs easily.

The pastel artwork looks softest on White, Light Pink, Sand, Ash and Sport Grey. Navy, Charcoal and Graphite Heather add contrast and make the pastels pop, while Maroon gives a warmer, deeper look.

Also caring for older kids? The pediatric nurse sweatshirt has a bright teddy-bear design for peds units.

Fabric, fit and sizing

Most people order their usual T-shirt size in this NICU nurse sweatshirt for a relaxed, everyday fit. If you love the cozy oversized look, go up one or two sizes; if you prefer a closer fit, especially for smaller frames, consider sizing down. The unisex cut works for women and men alike, and it is roomy enough to layer over a scrub top without pulling across the shoulders.
