Chris Davis Visits University of MD Children's Hospital's NICU

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Chris and Jill Davis spent some time visiting University of MD Children's Hospital and the NICU, dropping off toys and visiting patients.

Chris and Jill donated and distributed nearly two dozen MamaRoos to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at UMCH, completing an ongoing project to secure one for each room within the unit.

MamaRoos are infant seats that mimic the rocking movement parents makes while comforting their baby.
