The Family Support Center’s Respite Care Program is a free service open to all families in our community with children ages 11 and under. Our goal is to provide a safe, caring place for children to stay when caregivers need extra support.
When families face overwhelming situations. such as medical emergencies, housing instability, or mental health challenges. our Crisis Nursery Services offer immediate, short-term childcare in a secure, licensed facility. Staffed by trained caregivers, our nursery provides a warm and developmentally supportive environment where children can safely play, rest, and thrive while caregivers address urgent issues. We operate with the highest safety standards and ensure each child receives compassionate, attentive care throughout their stay.
Our goal is to reduce parental stress, prevent child abuse and neglect, and give caregivers the space they need to stabilize and seek solutions. Whether you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, or simply need a few hours to attend a court date, job interview, or medical appointment, our Nursery Services are here to support you with no judgment, just help.
We generally offer three hours of free childcare per week per child. For unplanned emergencies can provide overnight care for children for up to 72 hours.
