mobile application will be developed to support the post-discharge home care of mothers of premature babies. With the developed mobile application, the effect of the education given to the mothers on the knowledge and skills of infant care, mother-infant attachment, and the mother's self-efficacy will be evaluated.
This research aims to examine the effect of the mobile application developed for the home care of the babies of the mothers of premature babies on their baby care knowledge and skills, mother-infant attachment and mother self-efficacy. A mobile application will be developed to support mothers who care for their premature babies at home after discharge. The application will be installed on the phones of mothers whose babies are discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit.

Maternal self-efficacy and mother-infant supplementation will be measured when infants admitted the NICU and one month after discharge the NICU.
