Hands of Mercy Everywhere

Being a mother is one of the toughest jobs in the world, and it feels almost impossible when you are young and don't have a solid support system. Hands Of Mercy Everywhere, Inc. (H.O.M.E) is here to offer a safe, nurturing, and Christian environment to raise your child. H.O.M.E does provide labor and delivery coaching to prepare moms for their upcoming delivery. Cradle Care house moms have trained in evidence-based parenting and infant mental health. They are on-site to guide moms and babies from pregnancy to 2 years old. They focus on the parent-child relationship and contributing factors like:

• The personal health of the mother
• Maternal role development
• Life skills and education possibilities for the mother
• Infant's health and development
• Support systems for the mother and baby in the family and in the community they live in
• Increasing the awareness of safety for mom and baby

Moms in our program are provided with baby strollers, car seats, diaper bags, diapers, and other baby gear. Moms and babies have their own decorated room with cable TV for those long nights. Our moms have a list of community support classes from Early Learning Coalition, Success by 6, and Healthy Start. Transportation or on-site visits are provided. Our program has given many teen moms and their babies a successful beginning to a new life.
