Trick-or-Treat! Children Staying at The Foundling’s Crisis Nursery Celebrate Halloween
Note: As of 2020, The Crisis Nursery is no longer operated by The Foundling. |
The New York Foundling’s Crisis Nursery is a one-of-a-kind space where children can safely stay for up to 21 days while their parents work through a short-term crisis. While children are staying with us, our specially trained staff of child care workers, social workers, nurses, and teachers make every effort to maintain normalcy — and that means not missing out on holiday fun!
To make Halloween extra special for the kids staying with us, they are able to dress up in a variety of Halloween costumes and go trick-or-treating around The Foundling’s offices, collecting toys and candy from staff.
The staff at our Crisis Nursery create a loving, safe environment where everything a child needs is provided. Plus, our staff helps the families plan for their child’s return home and provides aftercare services. Each year, the Crisis Nursery provides a safe place for approximately 200 children and responds to phone calls from nearly 1,200 parents and caregivers who need support.
