On the chart are seven baby names and the seven days of the week broken into half-hour increments. Each baby has its own schedule, and each event is recorded. We feed Kenneth, we write down the time. That way, when Kenneth starts crying, we look at the chart and know exactly when he was last fed. It's especially helpful after a shift change.
People know what's happened before they came on duty.
Brown said there is no way to know how many volunteers will be needed in the months ahead, but she is confident there won't be a shortage of helpers. Maybe not as many as now, but we'll find that out as the babies get older. As long as help is needed, people will be there. That's why they do it - they're needed. But it won't be that much of a change.
