Team Registration (Kangaroo Care Day May 15)

Team Registration, Kangaroo Care Day 2025

A team is a group of participants—such as a NICU, CICU, PICU, Mother baby, or any hospital unit, community group, or family—who come together to celebrate Skin-to-Skin (Kangaroo) Care Day. Any way you choose to celebrate, inspire, and spread awareness!
As a token of appreciation for your participation, we would like to send you a gift with one The Zaky ROO and one unbreakable handheld mirror. You will receive instructions by email.

Plus, if you participate in the 24-hour global Kangaroo-a-thon on May 15—or manage your own Kangaroo-a-thon using The Zaky® APP—you’ll also receive a FREE The Zaky ZAK® to support safe, nurturing Kangaroo Care.
