Story
A mother currently working services through CPS is preparing for the release of her newborn baby, Jaylynn, from the NICU. Jaylynn was born premature and has significant medical needs, including a diagnosis that will require open heart surgery. The mother is requesting support with essential baby care items to help her prepare for Jaylynn’s transition home and recovery. She is in need of newborn and 0–3 month baby clothes, size newborn and size 1 diapers, swaddle blankets, burp cloths, and a baby healthcare kit with essentials such as a thermometer, baby nail clippers, and a brush. Providing these items will help ensure the mother is equipped to care for her medically fragile infant and support a stable, nurturing environment as they prepare for Jaylynn’s surgery and continued care.
