Due to Cuidando Los Niños, things have been a lot easier to manage. I’ve gotten a job and I’ve been able to keep that job. It’s great to know the kids are safe and being well cared for. They seem healthier and the amazing things they learn in preschool classes! In my life, things are coming along whether I expect them or not. Having this program just takes the struggle out of a lot of things. Cuidando is a very good place.

Everything is just really amazing that Caleb and the ladies up front at Cuidando really do for us! As soon as we walk in they smile they're very helpful and polite. My kids feel very comfortable when they come to the door. We are very, very appreciative of everything you do for us because without you we wouldn't be where we are today. We are just now getting to a point where we can be settled on our feet and without y'all we went wouldn’t have had Thanksgiving and Christmas our kids. So, thank you!

If it wasn’t for you guys I don’t know if I would still… I don’t know where I would be. You guys are pretty much the stable place for the kids, you know? Cause not having a stable caregiver while you're working is also hard for them too. So here… we’re stable.

I just want to say this program has given me a chance at being a mom again. This is the first place my daughter and I have ever been able to call home together and she is 16. I am so thankful for the apartment, the furniture, the Thanksgiving dinner, our Christmas presents and just know Kara and the staff is always checking on us. It feels really good to have been a part of this program especially at a time when I felt like I had very little options and felt very alone in this city where we have no family. Thank you so much for helping us!

Thanks to a generous gift from Yield Giving, we’re expanding!
