The process.

Call us, and we’ll work together to find you the support you need. Our services include crisis de-escalation, resources and referrals, short term overnight care for children ages birth – six, and home visiting. If you decide to bring your child to stay with us, please know:

• We’ll listen so we understand how to best care for your child
• We’ll help find the best way to get you and your family to the Nursery
• All you need to bring is proof of residence in Hennepin County and any prescription medications your child needs. We’ll take care of the rest.
• You are welcome to call and talk with your child during their stay at the Nursery

All services provided by the Nursery are confidential and voluntary, meaning you decide if we’re the right fit for you. We will not call Child Protective Services if you opt to use the Nursery, however, please know that Nursery staff are mandated reporters and must call Child Protective Services if they suspect child abuse or neglect.

“I was calling for four days straight, and I had someone to talk to every one of those days. I was so stressed, and the lady on the phone really helped me.” Terri, single mom of three children
