The Maddie & Noah Foundation
Supporting neonatal parents every step of the way
Who are we
Founded in 2017, and put into action in 2022. After the personal experience of the loss of Maddie and Noah.
Mother of the twins, Vikki, felt that she had no direct support during her time on the NICU, it was quite an isolating experience and a very scary time.
Luckily Vikki had the support from Mandi and Russell (the twins godparents) during her neonatal journey which is why they decided to launch The Maddie and Noah Foundation.
We are rooted in the belief that we all have an inherent responsibility to make a meaningful difference
