Mary Whitcomb

Mary Whitcomb, BSN, RN, NRP, worked as a NICU specialist for four years, providing bedside care in a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Children's Hospital Colorado. Her clinical responsibilities included caring for premature and critically ill newborns, operating advanced monitoring equipment, supporting families during critical situations, and responding to neonatal emergencies.

Mary transitioned from hospital nursing to parent education and now contributes articles and reviews for Kidz Under Construction, with a focus on infant physiology, safe sleep practices, baby monitors and wearables, and early infant care.

Her work combines clinical neonatal expertise with evidence-based content for families, offering perspectives grounded in actual medical experience rather than marketing-driven information. When Mary reviews a baby monitor, she evaluates it the way she'd evaluate equipment in the NICU — with precision, skepticism, and a focus on what actually keeps babies safe.
