Support for Parents & Material Assistance
Cost-free aide for women and families in our community.
At First Step, we provide compassionate care AND practical support, which means we holistically care about our patients' spiritual, emotional, and physical needs. We also know that being pregnant and starting a family can be expensive, so thanks to our generous donors, we are able to provide material assistance at no cost.
Parenting Support
Parenting Education
We help equip moms and dads to be the parents called has God them to be. We provide one-on-one education and group classes for baby care, parenting, prenatal health, and more. These classes and material assistance are available to all regardless of income or marital status. If you have a need we are here to help meet it!
Baby Boutique
Our Baby Boutique is filled with lovely new and gently used items for moms and babies. From maternity clothes to diapers, wipes, formula, handmade blankets, baby furniture and boys and girls clothes up to 2T, these quality donations are for our clients first, as well as anyone in need. We swap out the clothes seasonally, and have special events (Fill-A-Bag Fridays) to ensure no one goes without. The number of outfits or items given away is based on our Earn While You Learn educational classes. If you have items you would like to donate please contact us during regular business hours. We DO NOT accept, used breast pumps, bottles or other feeding supplies, cribs, car seats, stuffed animals or toys.
Prenatal Vitamins
High-quality prenatal vitamins are given to all our patients with a positive pregnancy. This helps to ensure that mom is healthy and baby is getting the nutrition he/she needs.
Layettes
Moms and dads can also earn a Layette when their baby is born to welcome him/her to the world. The layette consists of brand-new items, including a bassinette, baby outfits, diapers, wipes, a handmade blanket, bottles, pacifiers, baby care items, and other gift. This is pretty much everything needed to bring their new baby home from the hospital. If you would like to give towards the Layette program, please see our Amazon wish list below for needed items.
