I am currently working with a family in need. A family friend has assumed the role of temporary legal guardian for the child following the mother’s recent incarceration. She has taken on the responsibility of meeting the child’s basic needs and ensuring her overall well-being during this transitional period.
At present, the child is sleeping on a makeshift bed, as the caregiver works to secure appropriate sleeping arrangements. Due to the child’s rapid growth, the provision of a crib would greatly improve her safety and comfort during sleep.
The caregiver has expressed a strong commitment to supporting the mother throughout her incarceration and has consistently demonstrated herself to be a reliable and compassionate support for the child. Her involvement has provided much-needed stability and reassurance to the family during this difficult time.
