Interim Care for Children

After a child is born, birth parents may require additional time to make a permanent plan for that child. During this period, many birth parents choose to take advantage of Spence-Chapin's interim care program.

The child is cared for by a family certified and experienced in caring for newborns. Spence-Chapin's interim care families ensure that every baby receives individual attention in a warm and loving environment. During this time, the child's birth mother remains the child's legal parent and may visit her baby.

In addition, interim care babies receive regular medical care by Spence-Chapin's team of pediatricians.
