✨Arielle’s Snack Bar✨

Saturday 5th Apr
We’re thrilled to announce a heartwarming initiative led by Kayla Schwarz, a former NICU mom and member of the Parent Advisory Committee. As a mother of three and founder of Arielle’s Snack Bar, Kayla has turned her personal journey into a mission to uplift and support families going through the challenges of neonatal intensive care. Inspired by her daughter Arielle, who was born at 32 weeks and spent a month in the NICU, Kayla identified a critical need for healthy, complimentary food and beverage options for NICU parents. Arielle’s Snack Bar was born from her determination to fill this gap, offering convenient and nourishing snacks that bring comfort and care to families during their toughest moments. Through her work with vendors and generous donors, Kayla is making strides to ensure families have one less worry while navigating the NICU experience. Follow @ariellesnackbar on Instagram to learn more.
