Objective: To describe the implementation of support groups for mothers with hospitalized babies in a reference maternity hospital in Manaus/AM, Brazil. Data synthesis: A descriptive study in the form of an experience report, based on 26 weekly sessions conducted between January and June 2019, with an average duration of 60 minutes, led by maternity psychologists. The sessions provided emotional support and information to mothers, fostering their emotional well-being and preparation during their babies’
hospitalization. The space allowed for the expression of feelings, exchange of experiences, and strengthening of bonds among participants. Conclusion: The groups proved to be an effective strategy for providing emotional support to mothers of premature babies, and their expansion in health services is recommended.
