About Tiny Tides
Our story
Little waves, big memories
Tiny Tides was created for families along the Crystal Coast who wanted more than a quick glance at a hospital monitor. We wanted a place that feels like a celebration: soft, unhurried, and all about you and your baby.
Why we opened
Our founder spent years watching expectant parents lean toward the screen during routine scans, hoping for just one more second with their baby's face. Tiny Tides gives families that time. Every session is built around comfort, clear images, and keepsakes that will still mean something twenty years from now.
We're proud to be part of the Sneads Ferry and Topsail community and to serve the military families of Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River. Whether it's a partner joining by video from deployment or grandparents driving in from Hampstead, there is always room on our couch.
Our promise
Warm & unhurried
We never rush a session. If baby needs a minute, we take a minute.
Safe practices
Trained sonographers, short exposure times, and ALARA guidelines on every scan.
Everyone welcome
Family, friends, kids, and video calls are all part of the experience.
Military appreciation
10% off for those who serve, and recordings for those who can't be here.
Important
Elective ultrasound, explained
A few things every client should know before visiting.
Tiny Tides provides elective, non-diagnostic keepsake ultrasound. Our sonographers do not diagnose medical conditions, measure for growth, or provide medical advice. We ask that all clients be under the care of a physician or midwife and have had a confirmed, dated pregnancy.
If we notice anything during your session that we believe your provider should see, we will let you know and encourage you to follow up promptly. Our images are not a substitute for your scheduled prenatal ultrasounds.
