Mom is a single working parent providing income to her son and two grandchildren in the home. Mom states that her son is in need of a new bed, mattress, and bedding because for the last few months the family home has been dealing with a mice problem. Mom stated that the neighbors living next door have unsanitary conditions, which has caused for mice to enter into her home. Because of this, the mice have chewed up her son's bed, mattress, and bedding and she worries that he will not have any options for him to sleep in a bed. Mom mentions that her son is over 6 feet tall, so she is concerned with having him sleep on a small couch since he may not fit, but is also worried about him sleeping on a bed that has been infested with mice.

Hello, I am an Intensive in-home specialist with Cornerstones of Care, and I am currently working with a young pregnant mother (age 23) and her four young children (ages 4, 3, 2, 1 and unborn child). The family is in need of a pack-n-play for the baby who may be here in the next couple of weeks. Helping family meet this need will ensure that baby has a safe space to sleep and help family practice safe sleep habits. In addition, family could use two baby gates to help keep children out of the kitchen and bathroom. As the children are very young and mobile and like to climb on things. Mother has shared that the two young's children often climb into bathtub and turn on water. This could be very dangerous, as children could unintentionally slip and hurt themselves and or turn on hot water and get burn. A baby gate will help keep children out of the restroom. Lastly, mom has asked, if possible, to get a baby tub for the new baby. She shares that, this is one of the last items she needs for baby and would appreciate the help as her financial situation does not allow her to buy this items. The mother does work however, does not currently have the financial means to buy these items. Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read the request and for all that you do. Items needed Pack and play (mom is having a boy) baby bath two baby gates
