Introduction: When a preterm infant (PTI) is born, a markable period of anxieties and fears appears. The Kangaroo Method (KM), a public health policy, has as one of its main pillars, the humanized proposal, in which the family, in particular, the mother actively participates in the care of PTI. However, there is a gap in knowledge about the impact of the second stage of the KM on maternal depressive symptoms. Objective: to compare the depressive symptoms among mothers who experienced of the second stage of KM in the kangaroo neonatal intermediate care unit (UCINCa) in relation to those whose infants were hospitalized in the conventional neonatal intermediate care unit (UCINCo). Methods: a prospective cohort study (pilot) with a quantitative approach, conducted from January 2019 to January 2020, with mothers of preterm infants admitted to a neonatal unit of a brazilian university hospital, using as an instrument the Beck Depression Inventory. Results: most mothers (UCINca-82,35%; UCINco-77,77%), had minimal depressive symptoms. However, mothers who experienced the UCINCa had a reduction in the mean total score of depression when comparing the beginning with the end of hospitalization (11,52≠7,47), and mothers of NBS admitted to the UCINCo showed a small increase (6,77≠8,55). Conclusion: although this is a pilot study, it is concluded that the full maternal presence in the neonatal unit can positively impact on maternal depressive symptoms.
