More Moms on the JOB!

The following was brought over directly from MY LITTLE WAITING ROOM

My Little Waiting Room™ is a non-profit started by three Oregon moms who have the dream to bring drop-in child care to the hospital.

Our mission is to promote the health and well-being of families by bringing drop-in child care to the hospital so that children can thrive as families heal, according to the My Little Waiting Room™ Child’s Bill of Rights.

We figure since grocery stores, gyms, community centers and other locations offer this needed service, hospitals should too. Especially since families at the hospital are often in crisis and could really use the help.

We believe for families to realize the brightest possible futures together, their ability to obtain medical attention is vital. We further believe children have the right to thrive as their family members seek that care. That’s why we’ve written the following Bill of Rights which guides our project:

Bill of Rights
1. As a child, I deserve competent care while my family member seeks medical attention.
2. As a child, I have the right to keep learning and growing socially, emotionally and intellectually while my family members take care of their health.
3. As a child, I deserve help managing the stress caused in my life by my family's medical situation.
4. As a child, I need sanctuary and a place to call my own where I can seek peace, friendship and security while my family members are treated medically.
