With such short hospital stays, they find they have lots of unanticipated questions. Many calls end with a referral to another helping agency. The Warmline has been a joyous collaboration. Unable to raise extra funds to hire a Warmline staffer, Baby TALK educators volunteered their preparation time to the effort. Several partner agencies offered to do the same.
Many parents experience isolation and doubt as they raise their children.
The Warmline has made Baby TALK more accessible to these parents. It has put us at their fingertips as they face daily challenges with their families.
