Neonatal Transport Services
SkyCare Repatriation is a specialist CQC-regulated neonatal transport provider dedicated to delivering safe, timely, and expert transfers of neonatal patients. Our service is designed to support hospitals and patients receive the right level of care at the right time—without placing additional strain on hospital’s resources.
How We Can Support Your Hospital
We understand that arranging neonatal transfers can be challenging, especially when internal resources are stretched. Our service offers fully equipped, 24/7 neonatal transport with an experienced medical team, allowing your staff to focus on providing care within the ward while we handle the transfer.
Why Hospitals Trust Us
✔ 24/7 Availability – Our team is operational around the clock, ensuring urgent and routine transfers can be carried out whenever needed.
✔ Specialist Transport Team – We provide a dedicated team of neonatal transport nurses, doctors, and consultants, many of whom have over a decade of experience in neonatal retrieval and critical care transport. Our Chief Medical Officer is a neonatal specialist with extensive global transport experience.
✔ Keeping Your Staff on the Ward – Instead of pulling your own nurses and doctors away for transfers, our team handles everything, ensuring your NICU remains fully staffed to care for other babies. Or if you prefer, choose to send your own team with support from our specialist drivers.
✔ Dedicated Ambulances – We operate our own neonatal-equipped road ambulances, ensuring we can transport patients quickly and safely, whether within the UK or internationally.
✔ Regulatory Compliance & Safety – As a CQC-regulated provider, we adhere to the same strict standards as NHS neonatal transport teams, ensuring high-quality care and robust governance.
✔ Advanced Neonatal Equipment – We are an early adopter of the innovative BP37 active heating system which allows our BabyPod mini incubator to carry babies from 1 to 8 kg. We have dedicated neonatal monitoring, syringe pumps and full resuscitation equipment, creating a mobile NICU environment that ensures the highest level of care during transit.
✔ Advanced Respiratory support – we can provide invasive ventilation, BiPAP/DuoPAP, CPAP and High Flow Humidified Oxygen (Optiflow / Vapotherm) with correctly sized masks, prongs and cannulae
✔ Seamless Coordination – We work directly with NHS neonatal networks, handling all transport logistics, from bed coordination to communication between referring and receiving hospitals.
✔ Rapid Response & Proven Track Record – Our team is trained to mobilise quickly, minimising delays that can impact patient outcomes. With a strong history of successful transfers, we have safely transported newborns across the UK and internationally.

What our clients say.
If you are in the UK and looking for a medical repatriation company for your loved on, I could not recommend Skycare enough. I had an amazing experience dealing with Skycare on arranging medical repatriation for my Dad from London, United Kingdom all the way to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (12 hour long flight). From the first message I sent, Skycare responded fast and was very efficient on making sure all the forms and approvals were obtained quickly. Thank you so much to Craig for ensuring everything was smooth and Nurse Nav who was with my Dad during the journey back home.
Many thanks from myself and George. We were very impressed with the knowledge, care and professionalism shown from yourself and everyone involved and in particular we want to thank the medical team on the day, Lee and Tasha, for taking good care of James along the way. Please also forward our thanks to the pilots, Mark and Joe, for the smooth plane travel and landing and to Chris our ambulance driver for the considered driving all the way to Reading.
We are very happy now with the care he is receiving at Royal Berkshire Hospital and really pleased we were able to get him home safely with your excellent support and expertise from everyone involved.
Dear Craig & Ben,
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for sorting out our return home from Las Palmas today. My Dad was extremely nervous about the whole prospect of it all (as you probably picked up! 🙂 but it really was a seamless operation at every step of the way.
Mum is safely ensconced in Maidstone Hospital, and in good hands – not that she wasn’t before, but she is happy that she can communicate.
Can you please advise on which websites you would like me to add a review?
Best regards,
Pete McNair
From the very first point of contact to the final online message that my parents had been safely repatriated to the UK the service and care was second to no one. The ease of administration, itemised quotation and payment options, absolutely everything was clear, easy and worked perfectly.
Repatriation from France to the UK in “normal” times would be difficult, but during a pandemic and the constant changing rules from both countries, the COVID-19 tests and border control paperwork was all handled including the care, hospitality, comfort and professionalism nothing was too much trouble.
They made two worried octogenarians, very at ease during a very frightening time – in fact they made the whole family very at ease, right down to being able to track the full journey door to door.
If you are looking for medical repatriation to the UK I can highly recommend BM Ambulance Group.
Cannot thank the team at BM Ambulance enough for getting my Dad home from Spain. Craig/Sarah/James/Emma & Danny were all absolutely amazing. It was a huge 24 hour journey and they made Mum & Dad feel comfortable and safe the entire way. I don’t think my Dad would have made it without your help. He’s still not in the best of health but at least we have him home. We definitely could not have done this without you. Thank you all involved. Amazing people offering a fantastic service. x
BM Ambulance Service helped my son get home after he fell ill in France. They were fantastic from the start to finish. I do hope we never have to go through this again but if you are unfortunate enough to need this, I would highly recommend.
I would have given more than 5 stars if I could have. A big thank you to Craig, Sarah and John for the safe delivery of our much loved mum, mother in law, Nan and great grandmother from Spain after suffering a stroke.
