The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the transition to home for preterm infants born between 33-36 weeks gestational age and discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) through the use of two interventions, a "NICU Discharge Passport" and "NICU Infant Care Class," for parents. The main question\[s\] the clinical trial aims to answer are the impact of the above discharge interventions on: * parental readiness for discharge * feasibility of compliance with discharge instructions * number of ER/urgent visits and hospital re-admission rates 1-month post-discharge Participants will include parents/guardians and nurses of eligible preterm infants discharged from the Cohen Children's Medical Center NICU. Baseline data will be collected for a period of 4-6 months for a control group (who will receive current NICU discharge practices), after which two interventions will be implemented for a period of 4-6 months to the intervention groups. Interventions will include: a) NICU Discharge Passport and b) NICU Infant Care Class. Data collection will include pre and post-discharge surveys for parent and nurse participants in charge of discharging the eligible infant participant. Surveys will assess parental readiness for discharge, compliance with discharge instructions, ER/urgent visits post-discharge, hospital re-admission rates post-discharge, and if applicable, obtain feedback on interventions. Researchers will compare responses between control and intervention groups to understand the impact of the interventions on parental discharge preparedness.
