Challenge

Many mothers cannot continue school, training, or work because they have no safe childcare options. This challenge is even greater for young or immigrant mothers without support networks. Without reliable daily care, these women risk dropping out of education or employment, limiting their autonomy, income, and ability to provide stability for their children.

Solution

The Baby Room offers safe, daily childcare for babies whose mothers are studying, training, or working. With experienced staff and volunteers, it provides a warm, stable environment that supports child development while enabling mothers to pursue education and employment. This service removes a major barrier, empowering mothers to build independence and long-term stability.

Long-Term Impact

By ensuring daily childcare, the Baby Room allows mothers to remain in school, training, or employment, creating pathways to autonomy and financial stability. Babies benefit from a safe and nurturing environment that supports early development. Long-term, the project reduces school dropout, strengthens families, and promotes social inclusion, especially for vulnerable and immigrant mothers.
