Interim Child Care

After your child is born, you may need some additional time to make a permanent plan.

Many birth parents choose to use Spence-Chapin’s certified interim care program. Your child will be cared for by a family experienced with newborns. Our families ensure that every baby receives individual attention in a warm and loving environment. During this time, you remain your child’s legal parent and may visit the baby.

In addition, your baby will receive regular medical care by Dr. John Garwood, Spence-Chapin’s in-house physician and Director of the Pediatric Development Clinic at Mt. Sinai Hospital.
