Baby come back!
It’s a free birthday party and preemie reunion for every baby born at Northside Hospital in Sandy Springs, Northside Hospital- Cherokee in Canton and Northside Hospital- Forsyth in Cumming.

The event will include free access to the zoo, face painting, arts and crafts, a DJ, dance contests and refreshments.
A Snapchat geofilter will be available to participants and all social media photos can be posted using #NorthsideBaby. Souvenir T-shirts will be available for purchase.
Proceeds benefit the Miracle Babies at Northside Hospital fund, which provides financial assistance and support for families with newborns in the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit .
Guests attending the birthday party are encouraged to support the Atlanta Community Food Bank by bringing donations of diapers, baby wipes and or canned food, but no baby formula or items in glass jars.
